A former Playboy model has told friends how Andrew Tate tried to lure her to his Romanian hideaway.

Carla Howe, 32, said she was shocked and feels that she had a lucky escape after the disgraced influencer was arrested with his brother and subsequently two others in connection with alleged human trafficking and rape.

The blonde model was left 'horrified' as shocking details emerged of how Romanian prosecutors are investigating four suspects for allegedly keeping six women under 'house arrest 24/7 like prisoners'.

Prosecutors in Romania say the brothers allegedly recruited the women on social media platforms and persuaded them to travel to his £600,000 secret bolthole in Bucharest by falsely professing love for them.

The women - including an American citizen - were allegedly held at the property with employees shadowing their every move before being forced to take part in online pornographic videos.

Model girlfriend, 28, and ex police worker, 32 - dubbed 'Tate's Angels' - who were arrested with influencer Andrew Tate over claims they 'helped keep SIX women "like prisoners" and forced them to make online porn videos'


These are the two glamorous women, dubbed 'Tate's Angels', arrested with Andrew Tate as part of a human trafficking and rape investigation - one of them a former sub inspector in the Romanian police while the other is his girlfriend.

Luana Radu, 32 was previously based at a police station in central Bucharest but quit the force eight years ago to pursue a career working in video chat rooms, which attract men from all over the world and have become a lucrative industry in Romania.


Stunning model Georgiana Naghel, 28, who is also an American citizen, is described as a businesswoman and influencer who is believed to have been dating Tate for almost a year.


Both women are accused of being Tate's closest lieutenants with police claiming that they helped to 'coerce' and 'control' at least six women to create social media porn content and helped to keep them under house arrest 'like prisoners.'

Ms Naghel was born in Bucharest and raised in the Tuhari district and is believed to have met Tate through friends soon after he moved to the country five years ago.

After initially helping him with his business interests, the two eventually formed a romantic bond and have become a regular fixture at the city's exclusive clubs and bars.

While working in video chat rooms, Ms Radu, who also uses the name Ellie Dely on social media met Tate and eventually became his administrative assistant, helping him to manage his online business empire, which is worth an estimated £100 million.
