Misogynistic influencer Andrew Tate and his brother have been released from jail in Romania and placed under house arrest instead after winning an appeal over being held in prison.

A Romanian court ruled the pair could continue their detention at home.

The investigation into trafficking claims against Andrew and Tristan Tate continues, officials said.

The 36-year-old former professional kickboxer last month lost an appeal against further detention.
