Episode description
Today, Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have landed in Florida on a private jet from Bucharest, Romania.
The brothers were arrested in Romania three years ago and face trial on allegations of rape, trafficking minors and money laundering - all of which they deny. The charges haven’t been dropped, and they are expected to return at the end of March.
Why were they able to leave and will they ever return? James speaks to social media correspondent, Marianna Spring and correspondent Nick Thorpe, who speaks to us from Bucharest.
