British YouTube star and rapper Yung Filly, real name Andrés Felipe Valencia Barrientos, is under fresh legal scrutiny after a British tourist accused him of rape in Magaluf, Spain. The alleged assault reportedly took place at a hotel last summer following one of Filly’s performances at the bustling beach resort.
Second International Allegation in Less Than a Year
This is not the first time the 29-year-old entertainer has faced such serious charges. In 2024, Filly was arrested and charged in Australia with eight counts related to the alleged rape and assault of a woman in a hotel room during his tour. He pleaded not guilty, and that case is still ongoing.
Now, a Spanish judge in Palma is investigating the latest accusation, made by a woman who says she met Yung Filly at a beach club and later encountered him again at a nearby nightclub. The woman claims that after initially having consensual sex with one of Filly’s friends in a hotel room, she was later raped by Filly when they were alone.
Cross-Continental Investigations Begin
After returning to the UK, the woman reported the alleged incident to British police, who then contacted Spain’s Civil Guard. The case was forwarded to the Majorcan judiciary, and an investigation is now underway behind closed doors, as is customary in Spain. A source close to the proceedings confirmed that Spanish authorities are working with their Australian counterparts to arrange questioning of Yung Filly under oath.
“I Don’t Want That Smoke” – Filly’s Past Statements Revisited
This newest allegation comes shortly after Filly reappeared in public for the first time in months, having been released on £48,500 bail in his Australian case. When approached by the press, he responded vaguely, saying: “It’s a lovely day,” but declined to comment on his legal troubles.
Filly has previously expressed reluctance to engage in public controversies or legal drama. But with serious charges now spanning two continents, remaining silent may no longer be an option.
What Happens Next?
Yung Filly has not yet been formally charged in the Spanish case. The ongoing probe will determine whether sufficient evidence exists to bring the matter to trial. Spanish law allows courts to conduct secret pre-trial investigations, which means updates may remain limited until charges are officially filed.

From YouTube Fame to Courtroom Drama
Yung Filly rose to prominence through comedy skits, rap music, and co-hosting viral YouTube shows like FootAsylum’s “Does The Shoe Fit?” and “Hot Property.” With over 1.6 million subscribers, he cultivated an image of charm and relatability – one that now stands at odds with the serious criminal accusations leveled against him.
Public reaction has been divided. Some longtime fans are urging caution and due process, while others are calling for a boycott of his content until the legal matters are resolved.
