One is a model, the other a former cop.
Together the torrid twosome are known as “Tate’s Angels” — the women’s auxiliary of influencer Andrew Tate’s alleged sick empire of sex and smut.
The revelations about the women — arrested along with Tate and his brother Tristan — come as a Romanian teen broke her silence and claimed Andrew Tate tried to reel her in when she was 16.
Georgiana Naghel, 28, and Luana Radu, 32, were pinched alongside the accused misogynists at their sprawling headquarters outside Bucharest in Romania.
Naghel is a U.S. citizen and reportedly Tate’s gal pal. Radu is a former police officer who found pornography more lucrative, The Times of London reports.
Radu had worked at a cop shop in the central part of Bucharest. When she quit the force in 2014, she claimed she had just $480 to her name.
But she discovered that easy money could be made in the sex business, first in adult chat rooms then XXX pornography. During this time she met Andrew Tate, who was reportedly smitten and he hired the ex-cop to help run his burgeoning empire.

In addition to raunchy hardcore images on her OnlyFans account — using the name Ellie Dely — Radu posted a slew of photos from exotic locales around the planet.
On Dec. 21, she posted a photo wearing black underwear.
She tweeted: “I want to chat with you, tell you my secrets & show unrealistically hot videos that will blow your mind.”

Naghel’s social media footprint is tamer, with jet-set touches minus the raunch.
Now, the two women are in jail charged with helping Tate “coerce” and “control” at least six women who were allegedly forced into producing porn.
“These two women are Tate’s trusted lieutenants and his angels,” a police source told MailOnline.
“They are an important part of the crimes that took place because they made sure that the women being held against their will did as they were told.
“The Tate brothers financially benefited from these crimes, and so did these two women. They live a fantastic life which is not in keeping with their financial position.”

Earlier, Tate said in in a video that “40% of the reason I moved to Romania was because rape laws are more lenient there,” the Times said.
“I’m not a f***ing rapist, but I like the idea of just being able to do what I want,” said the self-styled self-help guru, who previously said women should “bear some responsibility” for being raped.
Romanian prosecutors said the Tates and the two women acted as an organized crime crew that recruited, housed and exploited women by forcing them into porn.
Tate’s lawyer said his clients “deny” any wrongdoing.
Meanwhile, The Times also reported that Tate’s luxury compound was swarming with 18- and 19-year-old men who were attending his “Hustlers University.”
“There were groups arriving three or four times a week, sometimes there were three taxis a day,” a neighbour told the newspaper.
Tate’s institute of higher learning report instruction on how to get rich quickly.
“They were young men. They say they were attending the Hustlers University,” the local said. “They would get lost and ask how they could find the Hustlers University. I don’t know what they were doing inside.”
The women inside allegedly worked around the clock making porn. Videos of one of the alleged victims generated $55,000 a month. She was reportedly paid nothing.
