Rapper Yung Filly arrested in Australia, and the internet is not surprised

British rapper and internet personality Yung Filly, legally known as Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, was recently arrested in Australia on rape and assault charges. The charges stem from an incident involving a 20-year-old woman following his performance in Perth in late September. The alleged assault includes multiple counts of sexual penetration without consent and physical assault, with specific allegations that Filly impeded the woman’s breathing by placing his hand around her neck.

Filly’s arrest has created shockwaves on social media, especially among fans and fellow influencers in the UK. Known for his work with the YouTube collective Beta Squad and appearances on British TV shows like *The Great Celebrity Bake Off* and *Soccer Aid*, Filly also hosts *Hot Property* on BBC3 and has a popular music career, including collaborations with friend and fellow YouTuber Chunkz. As of now, Chunkz has not commented publicly on the accusations, though fans are seeking his response.

Social media users have pointed out prior instances where Filly’s interactions with women raised concerns. Some comments reference previous allegations and inappropriate behavior in viral TikTok videos, while others suggest the arrest is not surprising, given past claims of unsettling behavior.
