Does Andrew Tate Have Kids? How Many?

Does Andrew Tate Have Kids

Andrew Tate is one of the most controversial people of recent times.

Often backed up by his brother, Tristan, Tate has been a pimp, a businessman, a social media influencer, a reality TV star, and an ‘educator’ – although that last one is debatable. What’s not debatable though, is that Tate has become a multi-millionaire through his various business interests.

His comments on the media, the West and women in particular have frequently got him in hot water – not that he cares – and he was even arrested and held in prison over in Romania where he now lives, on charges of sex trafficking. He and Tristan both fervently deny these allegations, but there are a huge group of people who are more than happy to believe he is guilty.

That’s because he is a divisive figure.

Young disillusioned men seem to flock to him, attracted by his unapologetic Alpha persona. Tate thinks he knows what a man should be, and he is spreading that message to young males who are consistently being told they are ‘wrong’ for wanting to show masculinity.

This brings me onto the subject of children.

Tate is a self-confessed womaniser. He thinks men should take care of women physically and financially, and women should take care of the man’s children and his home. His relationship status is bizarre because while he seems to have a constant stream of very dedicated females in his life, he is not committed to any one of them in particular.

Rather, he seems to have a sort of hareem arrangement with them. A man like this is bound to have kids right? Well, he has said as much, but given his often outlandish claims that have subsequently been debunked, no one can be certain. For instance, he claimed to be the world’s first trillionaire, which turned out to be a long way from the truth.

So we might not be able to take him at his word, but nevertheless, here’s everything he has said on the subject.

Tate himself has said on numerous occasions that he does have children.

However, he has always been deliberately vague on the subject since he likes to keep his private life out of the limelight. It’s odd considering he courts media attention for himself, but he draws the line at his family.

During one particular interview with Adin Ross on Youtube, Tate covered the subject in more detail than usual.

When asked about his children he replied that he had “many“.

Ross then asked him if that meant 2. Tate asked if Ross thought he was “some b*tch“. When Ross asked him if he had 5 he got the same reply. Ross then jumped to 10 or 12, and Tate said it was “around there“.

So whatever the actual number, Tate claims it is into double digits.

He has claimed to want 20, although this came out in the same interview where he talked about needing to have children with different women because pregnancy is too slow.

An insane quote of his:

“If you’re gonna take nine months to grow a single, simple baby then you’re just messing about. That’s your problem. If you’ll do it in two weeks and get your act together and be faster then we won’t have to do all this. I need 20 kids so you know, I have no choice but to have four wives as Allah intended.”

From watching, I think it was 50% said in jest, but he has converted to Islam (apparently) and does not believe in monogamy, so while he may be joking about it being a woman’s fault, I don’t think he was joking about his reasons for having children with multiple women.

Here’s the clip:

 

Then again, in another interview from around the same time, the interviewer was asking him about children and he kept saying “If I have a son…” or “If I have a daughter…”.

He may be deliberately misleading people on the matter.

He certainly believes in family. There have been countless interviews where he has talked about coming from a large family and wanting to replicate that. He has spoken of his grandmother’s 93rd birthday party, where he looked around and saw 70+ people who “had all come from this one woman who dedicated her life to being a good mother“, and described it as beautiful.

There is a small amount if video evidence of kids calling Tate Daddy, so whatever the specifics are, I think it is safe to say that yes, Andrew Tate is a father, but how many kids he has is unknown.

Is He a Good Dad?

Is Andrew Tate a Good Dad?

I’m getting into dangerous territory here.

I don’t know the guy so I don’t want to make judgements, but I do know what I have seen and heard him say on social media and in the news. Frankly, some of it makes him sound like a complete douchebag.

Is that all for the camera, though? During his arrest in Romania for alleged sex trafficking, his lawyer claimed the things he says online are all part of the ‘character’ he plays in public. This could be true. He wouldn’t be the first person to have a public persona invented to make money. He’s very consistent though…

But even if he acts like a complete dick sometimes, does that make him a bad father?

He obviously backs himself, saying, “They all adore me. They see me as their hero, and the women who have my children see me as a hero.” Is that true or does he just want it to be true?

Contrast that video interview above with this very rare clip of Tate interacting with his daughter:

Is that even the same guy?

Granted, he knew the camera was there and the person recording was on his payroll, but that looked like a genuine father daughter relationship to me.

It’s the adults your kids become that are the true test of your parenting though, most of the time anyway. You can hardly blame the Yorkshire Ripper’s parents for the way he turned out, some people are just insane, but for the most part, I stand by that statement.

When Tate’s kids grow up will his sons make misogynistic comments like he does, and will his daughters thank him for some of the things he said and did in the past?

My other question is just how present you can be as a father of 10-20 children? How can you give them all the care and attention they need to feel safe and loved? Again, I’m not judging here, I’ve seen 22 Kids and Counting and they seem to be a very happy family, it’s just a question.

But Andrew Tate isn’t your average guy. He’s always training, or working, or away on trips. Every time we see him he is childless, enjoying himself with a cigar and surrounded by friends and security and quite often young women. He regularly exerts his independence too, “If I wanna go out I’m out. I might be gone for two weeks. See ya in two weeks.”

So while he undoubtedly does spend time with his children, it’s always on his terms by the sounds of it. In his view, if the kids and their mother are safe and have everything they need, he’s done his job whether he is there or not.

I can’t agree with him on this, but I do like some of the lessons he is trying to instil in his kids.

On the CEOCAST, Tate was talking about his children being born into money and said this:

“My son ain’t gonna get any money because I don’t want him losing his hunger. I want him to grow up broke. I want him to go through all the struggles I went through. I want him to suffer. I want him to have that fire.”

Plenty of rich people who are in no way controversial share this attitude, and I would go as far as to say this is good parenting.

He had a slightly different take on it where is daughters were concerned, saying that if his daughter hit 18 and had money some guy would come along and get hold of it, and he wasn’t going to let that happen. For me, if I successfully raised my daughter in the way I hope to she wouldn’t let that happen. I wouldn’t need to worry about it.

Is he a good Dad? I can’t answer that. But I believe he loves his kids, and I suspect that, just like the rest of us, he gets some of it right and some of it wrong.
