Andrew Tate suffers fresh blow as court rules he and brother Tristan will be held under house arrest for another month
MISOGYNIST influencer Andrew Tate and his brother will remain under house arrest for at least another 30 days, a court ruled tonight.
The former kickboxer, 36, has been held on house arrest in Bucharest since March alongside his brother Tristan over sex trafficking claims.
The brothers have spent the past three months in their £600,000 compound on the outskirts of the Romanian capital.
And Andrew appeared in court today to discover if this house arrest is to be extended.
After much deliberation, the court ruled to extend their lockdown at home for 30 more days in a blow to the infamous influencer.
Tate immediately launched a furious rant against the judges' ruling on Twitter, claiming: "They’ve just decided I must remain on house arrest into month 8 - this can continue indefinitely."

"I haven’t been outside in 7 months," he added.
Before court, the misogynist was busy trumpeting online: "I still have not left my house. I have been forced to remain in the house (or a jail cell) since December 29th of last year.
"Think of all the places you have been since Christmas. I've been nowhere. Today I go to court to see if that changes."
The pair who have dual US and British nationality, were released from the hellhole jail they have been held in following their arrest in December.

They were ordered to stay in the buildings where they live after winning an appeal to replace their detention with house arrest.
The indictment says the two brothers and two Romanian suspects Georgiana Naghel and Luana Radu formed an organised criminal group in 2021 for human trafficking in Romania.
Prosecutors allege seven female victims were recruited by Tate through false promises of marriage or a relationship, known as the "loverboy method".
The brothers are accused of recruiting women on social media platforms and persuading them to travel to their £600,000 villa on the outskirts of Romania's capital.
They would allegedly falsely claim to be in love with the young women, before making them perform sexual acts on webcams.
Andrew has also been charged with rape and Tristan has been charged with instigating others to violence.
Under Romanian law, trafficking of adults carries a prison sentence of up to 10 years.
But it is understood the trial is expected to take several years.
Andrew and Tristan strongly deny all charges against them and have been fighting to be released ever since.
Prosecutors have also ordered the Tates' assets including their extensive car collection and flash watches to be seized as part of the probe.
Romanian cops listed the disgraced influencer's luxury with sources confirming to The Sun Online they are estimated to be worth around £10million.
Tristan previously moaned he is collateral damage in the “war” on his brother but said he does not regret for a second staying by him.
Meanwhile, Andrew Tate could be sued in the High Court after four British women accused him of rape and sexual assault.
The women said the sex attacks happened between 2013 and 2016 when Tate, was still living in the UK.
McCue Jury & Partners is crowdfunding to raise £50,000 to bring the case to a civil court in the hope it will prompt a criminal investigation.
In his bombshell interview with the BBC, the influencer claimed one of his alleged victims was "imaginary" and "doesn't exist" as he insisted the legal case against him has been "utterly fabricated."
But police sources say they still have a case against the Tates and vowed the investigation will be completed this month.
Cops said they expect the brothers will be charged and face trial in the autumn - saying they have "thousands of documents and pieces of evidence".
Tate initially gained fame after a short-lived appearance on Big Brother.
