Manosphere’ influencer brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate were arrested by U.S. Marshals in Florida Saturday in connection to rape and sex trafficking charges in the UK.

The pair were taken into custody outside of the James L. Knight Center in Miami shortly before Andrew was set to host IBA Bareknuckle 6, a bare-knuckle boxing event.

The Tates, who have both British and American citizenship, have faced legal troubles for years, and were nabbed because of a host of new sex crime charges  handed down overseas.

Andrew, 39, was slapped with seven additional counts of rape – in addition to charges he was already facing in the UK – after four new victims came to light, The Crown Prosecution Service said in a statement.

Tristan, 38, was charged with one count of sexual assault, two counts of rape and three counts of arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation, the release stated.

The charges stem from incidents that occurred between July 2010 and August 2017, according to the statement.

The UK is seeking the pair’s extradition.

“These charging decisions followed receipt of a further file of evidence from Bedfordshire Police and bring the total number of alleged victims in this case to seven,” Head of the Special Crime Division at the Crown Prosecution Service Malcolm McHaffie said in a statement.

The US Marshals confirmed the Tates’ arrest to The Post in a statement but would not reveal the charges.

The Tates’ attorney, Joe McBryde, disputed the charges and told The Post the arrest should not have occurred until their trials in Romania and a defamation case in Florida concluded.

“This is like Keir Starmer’s last day in office; it’s obvious that this little petty bastard has nothing better to do than persecute these two guys he wishes he could act like, walk like and talk like,” he said.

The wild arrest was caught on video published by TMZ.

Andrew, wearing a purple shirt, was seen being rushed by a US Marshal who slapped handcuffs on him after he emerged from a white van outside the arena.
