Ex-Girlfriend Accuses Andrew Tate Of Abuse, Violence In Lawsuit: ‘If You Ever Betray Me’

Model Brianna Stern says former kickboxer and influencer Andrew Tate beat and abused her, according to a lawsuit filed in California.

The lawsuit from Stern alleges that Tate beat and choked his ex-girlfriend during a stay at the Beverly Hills Hotel in California, according to The Los Angeles Times. It also accuses Tate of a litany of bad and illegal actions during their nearly year-long relationship, including sexual assault, battery, and negligence.

“The last time I saw Andrew was on March 11, 2025 at the Beverly Hill’s Hotel. The last words he said to me before I left the hotel were: ‘Shut the f*** up, b****. You will never backtalk me. You are my property,’” Stern wrote in a lengthy statement posted to social media.

“Due to the events that had transpired in the early hours of that day, as well as his final degrading words, something just clicked; I finally recognized that someone who truly loved me wouldn’t say those things to me or hurt me repeatedly the way that he did,” she said.

“The lawsuit asks for unspecified statutory and punitive damages,” per The Los Angeles Times. Tate’s attorney, Joseph McBride, has denied Stern’s allegations.

“This is a blatant cash grab — a desperate attempt by a sad individual to exploit Andrew’s success and reputation for personal gain,” McBride told The Los Angeles Times in a statement.

Tate recently returned to Romania, where he is under investigation for human trafficking and money laundering, after a brief stay in the United States. The online influencer is also facing sexual misconduct charges in Britain.

Romanian prosecutors accuse Tate and his brother, Tristan, of trafficking women across Britain, Romania, and the United States. Tate has denied all charges against him.

Stern and Tate met over the summer last year when the model traveled to Romania to learn about cryptocurrency. The two began a relationship, and Stern said that Tate vacillated between being kind and attentive, and controlling and violent, according to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit includes screenshots of text messages in which Tate allegedly threatens Stern, declares her his “property,” and says she needs to be beaten.

The lawsuit says that during their last night together, Tate began to beat Stern during sex.

“Initially, the sex was consensual, but things soon changed,” the lawsuit says. “Tate began verbally degrading Plaintiff as he routinely did — but this time it was much worse, more aggressive, and more violent. Tate then began to choke Plaintiff.”

Tate allegedly choked Stern and hit her on the side of her head.

“While doing so, Tate told her repeatedly that if she ever crossed him, he was going to kill her,” the lawsuit says. “Plaintiff did the best she could to protect herself as she sobbed and pleaded until Tate climaxed and stopped beating and choking her.”

Stern later visited a doctor in New York who diagnosed her with post-concussion syndrome. She then filed a report with the police, according to the lawsuit.

Stern said in her statement that Tate recently messaged her: “if you ever betray me, you will regret it.”

“I know I can’t be silent; I have to make my voice heard, no matter how difficult that road may be,” she said.
