Piers Morgan insists he’s held Andrew Tate’s ‘feet to the fire’ as he teases bombshell interview with Tate brothers

PIERS Morgan has insisted he “held Andrew Tate’s feet to the fire” as he teased his upcoming bombshell interview with the Tate brothers. Piers last interviewed the disgraced influencer in December 2022 for Piers Morgan Uncensored, just eight days before Tate’s arrest.

But the pair, who have dual US and British nationality, have now been formally charged. They are awaiting trial in Romania on charges of human trafficking and forming a criminal gang to exploit women – allegations they deny. When asked how he balanced holding his interviewee to account without platforming them, Piers Morgan said: “Should you platform him [Tate]? “I think with these kind of characters, the more light you shine on, the better actually – the more you hold their feet to the fire a bit. “I told them ‘I’m not here to be judge and jury on the very serious offences you’ve been charged with. “That’s gonna be for a court of law – as it should be.” “I push him quite hard on stuff where he tries to say ‘I’ve been sarcastic there’, well do you mean it or not?” Piers added he doesn’t know if Tate is “as bad as these charges suggest he is” or if it is all part of some act. He also mentioned rumours about the Tate brothers possibly getting all their possessions back overseas, such as their ultra-lux cars and homes. It comes after Andrew Tate‘s spokeswoman gatecrashed a press conference held by the lawyers of his alleged victims last month. Pictured with a bandage plastered across her face, Mateea Petrescu fumed about the 36-year-old former kickboxer’s “legal rights” as she barged her way to the front of the room. Tate initially gained fame after a short-lived appearance on Big Brother. He was dumped from the reality show after alleged footage of him beating a woman emerged online. Tate then built up an image that appealed to teenage boys – creating an online empire that made him one of the most searched people on Google. Masquerading as lifestyle advice, much of the content is considered highly sexist and is seen as promoting violence against women. His influence has had a worrying spread amongst young men and boys, with one UK MP saying he is “brainwashing” children.
