YouTuber Yung Filly, real name Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, has been seen for the first time after being arrested in Australia over an alleged sexual assault.

Last week, the 29-year-old rapper and internet personality was arrested in Brisbane and extradited to Perth after facing several charges.

Barrientos has been charged with four counts of sexual penetration without consent, and three counts of assault.

He has also been charged with one count of impeding a person’s normal breathing or circulation by applying pressure to their neck.

The YouTuber must remain in Australia for two months as part of his bail conditions while he awaits his court date, and must check in with police daily.

On Saturday, he was snapped for the first time since his arrest as he was swarmed by reporters.

The star wore a white zip-up hoodie and a cap and looked straight ahead as he dodged reporters’ questions and walked from a black car into the station and back out.

Barrientos was seen reporting to Northbridge Police Station in Perth, Western Australia on Saturday and Sunday, wearing an all-black look when he checked into the station for a second time.

He was granted bail on Thursday at Perth Magistrates Court but has to remain in Perth until December 19, when he will appear in court.

It has also been reported that strict conditions of his bail include that he is banned from contacting the alleged victim and is prohibited from posting about the case on social media to his millions of followers on various platforms.

The YouTuber has been ordered to report to police daily and post a personal $100,000 (£51,438.05) cash surety.

Barrientos had mainstream success appearing on several TV shows includingBBC’s Would I Lie To You? and Channel 4’s The Great Celebrity Bake Off for SU2C.

He is also known for hosting his popular comedy podcast with longtime collaborator Chunkz, called Chunkz and Filly.

It has also been reported that Barrientos’ cooking show with England footballers has been pulled by FA.

The FA initially chose him to ‘encourage young people up and down the country to experiment with cooking healthy alternatives’.

Metro.co.uk understands that English football’s governing body pulled the series along with all related promotional material quickly after his arrest.
