Yung Filly, a popular YouTuber, rapper, and online personality, has been charged with four counts of sexual penetration without consent, three counts of assault occasioning bodily harm, and one count of impeding a person’s normal breathing or circulation by applying pressure on or to their neck. The charges stem from an alleged attack that occurred in Perth, Australia, on September 28th. Filly, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, was arrested in Brisbane on Tuesday and extradited to Perth the following day to attend a court hearing.
Following the charges, a live performance of The Chunkz and Filly Show podcast, which was due to take place on October 18th in London, has been cancelled. The podcast, which sees Filly and Chunkz interviewing rappers and influencers, first broadcast last year. In addition to this, the Football Association (FA) has cancelled an online cookery series with Barrientos, which was set to star England footballers Bukayo Saka and Ezri Konsa.

Barrientos, who has over three million Instagram followers and nearly two million YouTube subscribers, has presented BBC Three shows, appeared on Soccer Aid on ITV, and The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer on Channel 4.
