Authorities in Romania also confiscated several of the former kickboxer’s luxury cars at his Bucharest estate.
In an email to his fans – his first since his incarceration – Tate said: “You’re trying to break me. Thrown into a cell with no light. Cockroaches, lice and bed bugs are my only friends at night.

A former world kickboxing champion, he has amassed millions of followers on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and TikTok.
