AceShowbiz - Andrew Tate is reportedly doing just fine despite his rumored serious health issue. After reports emerged that the former kickboxer is battling lung cancer amid his extended detention in Romania, his manager says that he's "ok."
The person who claims to be Andrew's manager took to his Instagram Story to give an update on the star's condition. Using the handler @thesartorialshooter, he wrote, "Good news team. Romanian news saying Tate actually did have the biopsy that Dubai specialists recommended."
The manager said that after having a biopsy, it was revealed that Andrew's tumor is "benign." He shared, "It was done a month ago in Bucharest - report says tumor is benign."
The manager seemingly slammed the false story that possibly exaggerated his condition, adding, "Be really nice if this was 'leaked' earlier... Family and friends were extremely concerned. Romania wouldn't lie about this. So he's ok. Alhamdulilah."
Previously, Andrew's team seemed to give a conflicting statement on Tate's health condition. After the social media personality hinted he's dealing with a health condition that "shouldn't be taken lightly," the rep said to Daily Mail, "Tate has a dark spot on his lung" that is "most likely a tumour."
According to medical reports, his doctors in Romania and Dubai expressed concern surrounding the lesion of his upper right lung. The doctors reportedly described it as a "serious health condition."
The medical reports also revealed that the 36-year-old visited the doctor on December 5, 2022, prior to his arrest, with plans to return to Dubai in January for a bronchoscopy and biopsy surrounding the lesion. They described the tests as a part of "further urgent investigations."
After the reports emerged, the man who claims to be Andrew's manager confirmed that the contentious media figure had been diagnosed with lung cancer. He posted on his Story, "Okay a lot of people are asking me if Tate lung cancer story is true. Yes, it's true. I was the one driving him to and from the hospitals in Dubai. I don't have any more specifics to share."
Andrew and his brother were arrested in December on suspicion of human trafficking, rape and forming an organized crime group. Recently, a Romanian judge extended their period of detention for the third time while no charges have been officially filed against them.
