Andrew Tate’s Ex-Girlfriend Files Lawsuit Alleging Sexual Assault

The lawsuit outlines disturbing allegations against Andrew Tate, highlighting a troubling pattern of behavior and abuse, while Tate's attorney maintains the accusations are unfounded.

Andrew Tate, the polarizing social media personality known for his controversial views, is now entangled in a legal battle following a lawsuit from his former girlfriend, Brianna Stern. The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles, accuses Tate of sexual assault, battery, and gender violence, painting a grim picture of their relationship.

Stern describes how the relationship began with seemingly charming behavior from Tate, soon deteriorating into emotional and physical abuse. Central to the lawsuit is an incident that allegedly occurred on March 11 at The Beverly Hills Hotel, where Stern claims she experienced assault and intimidation.

Tate’s legal representative, Joseph McBride, fiercely rebuffed the allegations, labeling the lawsuit as a “blatant cash grab” and accusing Stern of seeking financial gain and attention. McBride expressed confidence in Tate’s defense, asserting that the truth would affirm their position in court. He also criticized Stern's attorney, Tony Buzbee, who has represented various victims in high-profile sexual assault cases.

This lawsuit surfaces amid ongoing legal issues for Tate, who, along with his brother Tristan, faced serious charges in Romania last year, including allegations of forming a criminal organization and rape. Both brothers also confront accusations of sexual assault in several countries, though they have not yet been convicted of any crimes.

According to the documents, Stern describes a manipulative pattern initiated when she met Tate in Romania in 2024 for a modeling opportunity. Tate allegedly assured her that he would provide for her, claiming she would never need to work if they were together. However, his demeanor reportedly shifted to one of manipulation, verbal degradation, and physical abuse, asserting control over Stern to the point of referring to her as his "property."

The lawsuit recounts a specific horrific incident in which Tate allegedly assaulted Stern during a consensual encounter that turned violent, involving physical restraint and threats on her life. Following this encounter, Stern sought medical attention due to symptoms consistent with post-concussion syndrome.

In the aftermath of the incident, Stern waited for Tate to leave the country before reporting the alleged assault to authorities. In her lawsuit, she is seeking punitive damages, a restraining order, and a court order to halt Tate's purported abusive patterns of behavior towards women.

Despite her grave accusations, Stern expressed lingering feelings for Tate in a subsequent Instagram post, acknowledging the difficulty in confronting her experience of abuse. She remarked on the struggle of accepting the reality of her situation, as Tate remains silent on the newly filed lawsuit.

The case continues to draw attention as it underscores broader conversations regarding abuse and accountability within relationships, particularly in the public eye.
