Andrew Tate released: "Did you bulk in prison" - Andrew Tate's first video after release from Romanian prison triggers Twitter frenzy

Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan were released from Romanian prison and placed under house arrest three months after their incarceration.

The controversial internet personality was taken into custody on December 29, 2022 following a police probe. The Tate brothers were accused of rape, human trafficking and conspiring to form a criminal group, which they both denied due to a lack of evidence. They were detained by the Romanian government for continuous 30-day periods and had multiple appeal attempts denied, until yesterday.

Upon their release from prison, 'Cobra' posted a video on Twitter of him pacing a room up and down with a cigar in his mouth. The former kickboxer looked vastly different to when he was originally arrested as he is now sporting a bulkier physique and has longer hair.

Fans have been reacting to the video of Andrew Tate, with many surprised that the 36-year-old has managed to bulk up whilst incarcerated. One fan wrote:
