In a scathing critique, media personality Megyn Kelly has unleashed harsh criticism against controversial figure Andrew Tate following his return to the United States.
Kelly, speaking on her show, expressed deep concern about Tate’s influence on young American men, describing him as a “disgusting, vile creature” and a “disgusting pig misogynist.”
The commentary comes as Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have returned to the U.S. amid ongoing legal challenges in Romania and potential charges in the UK. Some charges against the brothers in Romania were dropped due to prosecutorial issues, though others remain pending.
Kelly’s criticism intensified after playing a disturbing video montage featuring Andrew Tate making violent and misogynistic statements. The footage, credited to Milk Bar TV, showcased what Kelly described as deeply troubling behavior.
The situation has created a divide among conservative circles, with some groups embracing the Tates’ return. The Tampa Bay Young Republicans (TBYR) notably extended an invitation for the brothers to speak, defending their decision by stating, “The Tates haven’t been formally convicted of any crimes and are welcome to speak to our group.”
Reports suggested that Rick Grinnell, known for his work in hostage negotiations, may have been involved in facilitating the Tates’ return, though he has denied making direct interventions, acknowledging only a conversation with the Romanian foreign minister.
Kelly concluded her commentary by strongly rejecting the notion that pending criminal charges should be the only metric for judging character, referring to Andrew Tate as a “piece of human excrement.”
The Tates are expected to return to Romania in the coming year to face remaining charges.
During a press conference, Governor Ron DeSantis was asked about Andrew Tate’s arrival in Florida and whether the state would take action to send him back to Romania. DeSantis stated that Florida had no direct involvement, as federal authorities handle such matters, but mentioned that the state’s Attorney General was exploring legal options. He made it clear that Tate and his behavior were not welcome in Florida. Meanwhile, Tate’s presence reignited speculation about a long-awaited stream with Adin Ross, which had been planned for 2024 but never materialized, leaving fans eager for the potential collaboration.
