Rapper Yung Filly faces two new sexual assault charges
British rapper Yung Filly has faced additional charges over allegations he sexually assaulted a woman while on tour in Australia.
The internet personality, real name Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, appeared before Perth District Court on Friday.
In March, he pleaded not guilty to three counts of assault occasioning bodily harm, one of strangulation and four counts of sexual penetration without consent.
Court documents filed on Friday revealed he faced two new counts of sexual penetration without consent.
No plea has been entered for the two new charges.
His case was listed for a 10-day trial starting on July 20 2026.
The online star has been on bail since October 2024 after allegedly sexually assaulting a woman aged in her 20s in his hotel room after he performed at a venue in Hillarys, a coastal suburb of Perth, the previous month.
During his initial court hearing in October, Barrientos was granted bail with strict conditions and a personal undertaking of 100,000 Australian dollars (£52,000), alongside a surety of the same amount, the PA news agency understands.
Court documents revealed Barrientos pleaded guilty to a reckless driving charge on December 5.
The social media star was clocked driving at more than 96mph on the Roe Highway near the Perth suburb of High Wycombe on November 17.
Barrientos has appeared on several BBC shows and is known for collaborating with the YouTube collective Beta Squad.
The rapper, who was on tour in Australia, has appeared for England on Soccer Aid and The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer on Channel 4.
Among his other shows, he hosted BBC series Hot Property and Munya And Filly Get Chilly with comedian Munya Chawawa, a spin-off show of Freeze The Fear With Wim Hof.
In 2021, he won best media personality at the Mobo Awards alongside fellow online personality Chunkz, real name Amin Mohamed.

Brit tourist drowns in Cyprus hotel pool while playing with grandchildren
A British dad drowned in a hotel pool while playing with his grandchildren - just hours before he was due to watch his son get married. John Fazackerley, 60, failed to resurface during game in the water with the youngsters and, although guests and paramedics dashed to perform CPR, the retired builder died. John had flown to Paphos in Cyprus where his son Sean's wedding to fiancée Vicky, which went ahead the next day and where guests paid their respects to John. Sean, 30, and his family are now working to bring John's body home and hold his funeral, which altogether will cost thousands of pounds. Paying tribute to his dad, Sean, who is an IT manager, said: "He was a very family-orientated man and his final moments were with his grandkids, playing. He loved fishing and spending time with the grandkids and we miss him. Now, we are just trying to support my mum and she's moved in with us for a bit." The GoFundMe page for donations to bring John's body to the UK has raised more than £5,000 so far. There has, though, been some confusion over the postmortem in Cyprus, the family says. The poignant fundraiser reads: "Very suddenly while on holiday for his son's wedding in Paphos, John passed away, his last moments were spent with his grandkids and loved ones. "We are asking if anyone can help how big or small to donate towards getting John home back in the Uk and towards funeral costs. We appreciate everyone's love, support and respect for all the family at this very difficult time." Sean, from Cheshire, claims resort staff struggled to locate a defibrillator - and when they finally did, none of them knew how to use it on Sunday May 25. A family member used the device in the end before paramedics arrived, added Sean. When relatives arrived at hospital, personnel demanded John's passport details which the family didn't have to hand because the documents were securely stored in a safe in the hotel room. As they tried to locate the passports, Sean told MailOnline how his mother, Julie, was the only one allowed in to the hospital with his father. Sean and Vicky decided to go ahead with the wedding. Sean said his dad had been particularly excited for an ice cold beer following the ceremony, and so in his honour they placed a family snap of the retired builder next to a cooler of beer and drank in his honour at the party.

Romeo Beckham's sweet four-word message to dad after he finally gets knighthood
Sir David Beckham has shared an adorable post by his son Romeo, 22, congratulating him on receiving a knighthood - while Cruz and Brooklyn are yet to publicly break their silence Romeo Beckham has shared a sweet four-word message to his dad after it has been announced in the King's Birthday Honours List that David Beckham is set to receive a knighthood. Gone are the days Victoria will be nicknamed Posh, and she really has lived up to the moniker as Victoria, who received an OBE in 2017, also receives a new title with David's honour, and she will now be known as Lady Victoria Beckham. Each of the Beckham children are also famous, having grown up in front of the gaze of millions of fans. Although they have earned their own status' within the world of showbiz, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper Beckham won't get any royal recognition due to their dad's new title. Taking to Instagram in the early hours of Saturday, June 14 Romeo shared a black and white image of him and his dad with the words "So proud of you". David then shared it to his stories. Brooklyn and Cruz are yet to publicly congratulate their dad. The news comes as the family have been locked in a feud with eldest son Brooklyn, 26. Things came to a head when Brooklyn and wife Nicola Peltz skipped David's 50th birthday celebrations as the drama has reportedly resulted in the couple cutting contact with the famous family. Sir David said in a statement to the PA news agency: 'Growing up in East London with parents and grandparents who were so patriotic and proud to be British I never could have imagined I would receive such a truly humbling honour. 'To have played for and captained my country was the greatest privilege of my career and literally a boyhood dream come true. Off the pitch I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to represent Britain around the world and work with incredible organisations that are supporting communities in need and inspiring the next generation. 'I'm so lucky to be able to do the work that I do and I'm grateful to be recognised for work that gives me so much fulfilment. It will take a little while for the news to sink in but I'm immensely proud and it's such an emotional moment for me to share with my family.' Like every person who has received a knighthood, Sir David will be treated to an official ceremony. The ceremony, which often happens at Buckingham Palace, will see David kneel in front of a monarch – which can be either the King or another member of the Royal Family such as Princess Anne or Prince William – who will then touch the recipient's shoulder with a sword.

Any member of the public or an official body can nominate someone for an honour. UK nationals and citizens of 15 Commonwealth 'realms', of which the King is head of state, are eligible for nomination. People living or working overseas, whose achievements were made in another country or in the UK and have a significant international element, can be nominated too. Nominations are submitted to the Cabinet Office's Honours and Appointments Secretariat, which oversees the honours system. A group of 10 independent honours committees, each covering a specialist subject area such as sport or health, consider nominations. King Charles ultimately decides who is recognised in the Birthday Honours list (Image: Temilade Adelaja/PA Wire) The recommendations of these groups of independent experts and senior civil servants are passed on to the Prime Minister and, ultimately, the King for approval. There are two sets of honours per year, at New Year and in June on the King's official birthday. Once all recipients have been decided and checked, the Central Chancery of the Orders of Knighthood at St James's Palace arranges investitures for the presentation of medals. These ceremonies, held about 30 times a year at Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle and, occasionally, the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh, and are hosted by senior royals. The most senior ranks of the Order of the British Empire are Knight or Dame Grand Cross (GBE) and Knight or Dame Commander (KBE or DBE). Recommended reading: The order's ranks, after Knighthood or Damehood, are Commander (CBE), Officer (OBE) and Member (MBE). Other honours include Companion of Honour (CH), British Empire Medal (BEM), Royal Victorian Order (RVO), Order of the Bath and Order of St Michael and St George. There is also Royal Red Cross (RRC), King's Police Medal (KPM), King's Fire Service Medal (KFSM) and King's Ambulance Service Medal (KAM).
