Jake Paul reveals a secret message from Tate

In an episode of Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast, Jake revealed a message request from Tate on his Instagram account back when Tate was relatively unknown. He showed the phone on the screen which read, “Accept message request from Emory Andrew Tate III”. However, the message was deleted and only a request was sent. He also claimed that Tate was a fan of theirs.

I just wanna say though, just so I can have some peace, so he followed me until last week. He was a fanboy. Look at this it says accept message requests from Andrew Tate, ” said Paul 

Moreover, Paul then claimed he didn’t even know who Tate was at the time and why he was calling him out.”He called me out like two years ago and I remember seeing it and swiping because I was like ‘who is this guy?There’s always someone calling me out.” He added.
