Andrew Tate claims he’s a ‘feminist’ in bizarre Piers Morgan interview
Controversial influencer Andrew Tate has claimed he was “coerced” into an interview as he was questioned on allegations of rape and human trafficking in a new interview with Piers Morgan.
Both he and his brother Tristan are currently awaiting trial in Romania on allegations of forming a criminal gang to exploit women, which they both deny.
They will appear in the first of two episodes on TalkTV this evening, with news of the interview dividing opinion, with many calling for a boycott of the show and criticising the broadcaster for offering the brothers “a platform’.
In a 40-second clip released on social media site X, Tate can be seen denying that he is a “fantasist” and claims that he was the victim of a “Matrix attack”, before angrily responding: “I was coerced into this interview!”.
Morgan last interviewed the former kickboxer in December 2022, just eight days before Tate was arrested, in which he affirmed his belief that women were “given” to their husbands in marriage.
Tate first gained notoriety during the 2016 season of Big Brother in the UK, since then he has amassed a fanbase of young boys and men by styling himself as an alpha male lifestyle coach on social media.
More to come on Piers Morgan Uncensored

‘That is not my fault,’ Tate says
When questioned about his influence on young teenage boys, Tate responded: “It’s very easy for a teenager, with their hormones and the lack of life experience, to take the things I say and weaponize them and use them in the incorrect context. However, that is not my fault.
“Can I make sure that no teenager on the planet who listens to me ever misunderstands me, ever? No, I can’t do that, but I am doing my very best.”

Andrew addresses Amanda Holden comment
In a bizarre exchange, Tate once responded to a photo of presenter Amanda Holden in a bathing suit and wrote: “You are a wife and a mother and you are far past a teenager, there is no need for this post.”
Describing her as a close friend, Morgan said the tweet was misogynistic to which Tate explained: “You can call me crazy, you can call me misogynistic, but I think once you reach the ripe age of 50, any woman should not be interested in thirst trapping on Instagram. I think she has bigger responsibilities, I am sure she is a very intelligent lady and she has done amazing things.”

Morgan questions Tate on the ‘loverboy method’
The method is a term that refers to men who use tactics to coerce vulnerable individuals into exploitation.
Tate pushed back: “Do you know what ‘loverboy method’ means? Being nice. ‘He was nice and polite and kind and they really liked him as a person, and he told them how to do TikTok’. He’s a lover boy!”
“I was nice to girls who asked me for TikTok advice, I didn’t beat or force them,” he said.
He then accused Morgan of using the “loverboy method” and of “coercing” them into the interview.
