Andrew Tate rented supercars to appear 'uberwealthy', lawyers say
Their lawyers say the brothers rented luxury vehicles and were paid to promote a $50 million superyacht to build an online image.
- On Tuesday, court documents filed by legal representatives for Andrew and Tristan Tate revealed that luxury vehicles featured in their social media content were rented rather than owned.
