The CPS decision came after it received a file of evidence from Bedfordshire Police about allegations made in the U.K.
The Tates were born in the U.S. but moved to the U.K. as children. They deny the charges brought against them. Andrew Tate, 38, is a former kickboxer-turned-social media personality whose content was geared towards extreme misogyny. The YouTuber first rose to fame on the U.K. reality show Big Brother in 2016, but he was removed from the house six days after footage emerged of him appearing to attack a woman.
Now, with millions of followers across his social media accounts, Tate has said, among other things, that women are a man's property and that rape victims 'bear the responsibility' of their attacks and has regularly discussed hitting and choking women.
He faces 10 charges connected to three alleged victims, including rape, actual bodily harm, human trafficking and controlling prostitution for gain.
His younger brother, Tristan Tate, 36, faces 11 charges connected to one alleged victim, including rape, actual bodily harm and human trafficking, the BBC also said.

Pro-Palestinian activists due to appear court after damaging planes at RAF base
LONDON (AP) — Four people are set to appear in a London courtroom on Thursday over charges connected with an incident in which pro-Palestinian protesters damaged two Royal Air Force planes with red paint and crowbars. The charges come after the group Palestine Action said two of its members entered RAF Brize Norton on June 20 and used electric scooters to approach two Voyager jets used for air-to-air refueling. The protesters used repurposed fire extinguishers to spray paint into the planes' jet engines and caused further damage with crowbars, according to the group, which released video footage of the incident. The four, all between the ages of 22 and 35, are charged with conspiracy to commit criminal damage and conspiracy to enter a prohibited place for purposes prejudicial to the interests of the U.K., counter-terror police said in a statement. The Crown Prosecution Service will argue that that the offenses have a 'terrorist connection,' police said. Palestine Action has claimed responsibility for a series of incidents targeting Israeli defense contractors in the U.K. and other sites linked to the war in Gaza. Following the incident at RAF Brize Norton, the government introduced legislation to ban Palestine Action as a terrorist organization. The measure means it will be a criminal offense to belong to or support the group, with a maximum of 14 years in prison. Palestine Action rejects that assertion, saying its protests are designed to end international support for Israel's war in Gaza. Planes from Brize Norton, 70 miles (112 kilometers) northwest of London, regularly fly to RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, Britain's main air base for operations in the Middle East.

CNBC Daily Open: U.S. markets say 'yes' to cheaper shoes from Vietnam, 'eh' to job losses
If I had to choose between having a job and paying less for Nike shoes, you'd see me running barefoot to the office. Wednesday's market moves, however, suggested that Wall Street preferred the cheaper shoes. The U.S. economy lost private sector jobs in June, the first time hiring had contracted since March 2023, according to payrolls processing firm ADP. It's even more startling because a Dow Jones survey of economists had pegged job numbers to expand by 100,000. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump announced on his social media site Truth Social that the country had made a trade deal with Vietnam, in which the Southeast Asian nation will face a 20% duty on imports to America. That means companies that rely heavily on Vietnam for manufacturing, such as Nike, Crocs and Lululemon, will face less onerous costs and might not hike prices as much, compared with the original tariff rate of 46%. After weighing both pieces of news, investors decided the good news was more important and lifted the S&P 500 to a new closing high. Granted, the ADP report has had a spotty track record in predicting the official job figures from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. But it's still worth thinking about how that's a sign financial markets could be slightly disconnected from the real economy: Who can afford to buy shoes and pump up stocks if they don't have jobs? Vietnam strikes a deal with America. Imports from the Southeast Asian nation to the U.S. will be subject to a 20% tariff, while the U.S. gets tariff-free access to Vietnam's market, Trump announced Wednesday. The S&P 500 rises to close at a fresh record. On Tuesday, the index also scored an intra-day high, while the Nasdaq Composite notched a record close. The Vietnam Index on Wednesday rose to its highest level since April 2022, following news of the country's deal with America. The White House lifts chip software curbs on China. Semiconductor software companies Synopsys and Cadence announced Thursday that they are restoring access to their products after the U.S. government reversed export restrictions. U.S. private sector jobs shrank in June. Job losses amounted to 33,000, reported ADP on Wednesday. Economists polled by Dow Jones had expected an increase of 100,000 jobs for the month. [PRO] Revenue-generating concerts are boosting K-pop stocks. Amid declining sales of music albums, K-pop agencies are pivoting their strategy — leading to a surge of over 100% in stock price for some. Hong Kong's IPO market is on fire — here's what's fueling the surge New listing volumes on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange jumped around eight times to $14 billion in the first half of this year, from just $1.8 billion in the same period in 2024, according to Dealogic. That puts the city on track to become the world's largest listing destination this year, surpassing the Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange. PwC projected up to 100 IPOs in Hong Kong this year, with total fundraising to exceed $25.5 billion.
