The famous English YouTuber and television star has been arrested on charges of rape.

British YouTuber and BBC star Yung Filly, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos (29), is accused of rape at a hotel in Australia. Barrientos was arrested in Brisbane on Tuesday and transferred to Perth on Wednesday.

According to the allegations, Barrientos, who performed at a nightclub in Perth on September 28, later sexually assaulted a woman in her twenties at his hotel. The rapper is facing charges of non-consensual sexual intercourse, assault, and obstructing breathing.

Born in Colombia and having come to England as a refugee in childhood, Barrientos appeared before a judge at the Perth Magistrates' Court on Thursday. His bail application was postponed, and he is currently being held in custody.

Yung Filly rose to fame quickly with his YouTube career, which he started in 2013. In 2019, he had the opportunity to create his own show on the BBC. With over 3 million followers on Instagram and 1.84 million on YouTube, Filly's net worth is estimated to be between 1-2 million dollars.

In addition to his social media career, the artist is also active in the music world. He recently achieved great success by collaborating with British rapper Aitch. He also has advertising deals with many well-known brands.

Filly has stated in the past that he is proud of being a refugee and that overcoming challenges has added value to his life. However, he has also admitted that being famous has led to issues such as anxiety and panic attacks.

These serious allegations could profoundly affect Yung Filly's career and life. As the investigation continues, fans and the public are closely following the developments.
