British YouTube star and rapper Yung Filly, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, is now facing additional legal trouble in Australia. The 29-year-old content creator has been hit with two more charges of sexual penetration without consent, bringing the total number of charges against him to ten.
The new developments come as part of an ongoing case involving an alleged assault that took place during his music tour in Perth, Western Australia, in September 2024.
According to court records, the incident occurred in his hotel room, and the alleged victim later came forward with claims of assault. He was arrested in Brisbane and extradited to Perth in October last year, where he was formally charged with four counts of sexual penetration without consent, three counts of assault occasioning bodily harm, and one count of strangulation.
The two new charges were filed last week, though no plea has yet been entered for those.
Yung Filly appeared before Perth District Court on June 13, 2025, where the expanded list of charges was confirmed. He has maintained his innocence, having pleaded not guilty to the original charges back in March.
The trial is scheduled to begin on July 20, 2026, and is expected to span ten days.
In the meantime, Barrientos remains on strict bail conditions, which include a hefty financial undertaking of A$100,000, mandatory check-ins with local police, and travel restrictions keeping him in Western Australia until the court date.
The unfolding case raises important conversations about the role of influence, consent, and accountability in the entertainment space. As digital personalities like Yung Filly grow from internet stars to global figures, the lines between private behavior and public image become harder to separate and more critical to examine.
As this story develops, it serves as a reminder that fame offers no immunity from the law and that justice, however long it takes, must be pursued without fear or favor.
