Controversial internet personality Andrew Tate is facing a civil lawsuit in the UK, where four women have accused him of severe abuse, including rape, physical assault, and coercive control. According to court documents, one woman claims Tate once pointed a gun at her and threatened, “You’re going to do as I say or there’ll be hell to pay.”

The alleged incidents took place between 2013 and 2015 in Luton and Hitchin. Two of the women were employed by Tate’s webcam business, while the other two were involved in personal relationships with him. Some of the accusations include repeated strangulation causing visible injuries, threats of murder, and non-consensual sexual acts. One claimant, referred to as “Sienna,” says she was choked unconscious during sex, and that Tate continued the act after she passed out.

Tate has denied all allegations, describing them as false and exaggerated. He argues the case should be dismissed due to the time that has passed and potential loss of evidence. A preliminary court hearing is scheduled for April 15.

Though three of the women had previously reported Tate to the police, no criminal charges were filed in 2019. The women are now seeking compensation for emotional and physical harm through civil court.
