Andrew Tate and his brother have been released from jail in Romania to be placed under house arrest instead, his communication director has said.

The former professional kickboxer and his brother, Tristan are being investigated over allegations of sexual assault and exploitation.


The pair are also being detained on suspicion of human trafficking and organised crime.

Neither of them have been formally charged after initially being taken into custody on 29 December last year.

The Tate brothers are now set to undergo house arrest for 30 days, according to court documents.

An order from an appeals court in Bucharest said it “Rejects the proposal to extend the duration of the preventive arrest measure.. regarding the defendants Tate III Emory Andrew, Tate Tristan, Naghel Georgiana Manuela and Radu Alexandra Luana.

"[The court] replaces the measure of preventive detention ordered against the defendants.. with the preventive measure of house arrest, for a period of 30 days."

The document added that it "orders the immediate release of the defendants".
