Woman who accused Tate of rape says as he strangled her she lost consciousness

The 30-year-old, who is planning to launch civil legal action against Tate, told The Independent that the social media personality told her he owned her and wanted to kill her after they had sex. She is joining three other alleged victims who are represented by a UK law firm that announced in April that it was planning to launch civil legal action against Tate, a former kickboxing world champion turned "success coach".

The British women, whose cases have been taken on by the law firm McCue Jury & Partners, accuse Tate of perpetrating violent sexual and physical assaults against them, claiming they endured injuries and psychiatric damage. They also accuse him of subjecting them to coercive and controlling behaviour. The fourth woman has now come forward and made allegations of rape and assault against Tate, saying that she first met the influencer on a night out in her hometown of Luton in 2014 when she was 20.

Tate initially appeared "charming" and they got "along very well", she said, adding they went back together and had sex but "nothing particularly out of the ordinary happened". She claimed they met up again a few months later and Tate began to choke her and "continued to do so" while they were having sex. "He put his hands around my throat and strangled me until I lost consciousness," she added. "Then when I came back around again, he was still having sex with me. It was very scary because he is obviously quite a big guy."
