British YouTuber Yung Filly has pleaded guilty to reckless driving in Australia while on bail over rape allegations.

The 29-year-old, whose real name is Andrés Felipe Valencia Barrientos, admitted to driving at almost 60km/h (37mph) over the speed limit on a Perth highway last month.

He is yet to enter a plea on eight sexual assault charges, over allegations he attacked a woman in his Perth hotel room after performing at a nightclub in September.

Barrientos is best known for his work with the YouTube collective Beta Squad, and has presented shows on BBC Three.

Barrientos appeared in Perth Magistrates Court on Thursday, where his lawyer said her client would enter a plea of guilty to the driving offence, which resulted in his car being impounded.

The case was adjourned until 30 January, to be heard alongside Barrientos’ other charges, which include four counts of sexual penetration without consent, three counts of assault occasioning bodily harm and one count of choking.

The rapper was on tour in Australia performing his music when the alleged incident occurred. His bail conditions bar him from leaving the state of Western Australia or posting about the case on social media.

Barrientos is a popular media figure in the UK, winning a Mobo Award for best media personality in 2021. He has also appeared on ITV’s Soccer Aid and Channel 4’s Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer.
