YUNG Filly’s former friend LV General has said he is “praying” for the rapper after he was charged with rape.
The YouTuber, 29, has been banned from leaving Australia after being accused of sexually assaulting a woman during his tour there.
Now fellow influencer LV General has broken his silence on his ex-collaborator, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos.
He wrote on Instagram: “Everyone please stop messaging me about what’s happened to Young Filly.
“He’s a grown man and he has to take responsibility for his own actions.
“I’ll be praying for man because Australian prison ain’t a joke – bare snakes and spiders and s***.
“I just hope this don’t backfire on his family.”
The pair worked together on YouTube videos for years before going their separate ways.
But after scoring millions of page views and amassing a huge online following, they stopped working together and have barely spoken in recent years.
LV said he and Barrientos are “not close” anymore and that they “moved in different directions”.
On the Wha Gwan Podcast last year, he revealed: “We’re not [close].
“We haven’t been friends since [a trip to] Thailand.
“He’s one of those guys that are more drawn to people doing big things so if you’re not popping he’s not really gonna hear from you.
“It’s just the way things have gone and he you’ve done it is wrong in my eyes.
“When I talk to him and we have that sit down, we can solve it then.”
On another podcast, LV said Barrientos used to be his “best friend” before he “turned in a different direction” and “pissed me off”.
LV’s comments come after Barrientos’ pal Chunkz told fans he would not be commenting on the case.

The 28-year-old told his Instagram followers: “Like everyone I’ve heard the reports coming out of Australia.
“While I understand many of you want my reaction on it, as this is an ongoing court case I hope you guys understand that I can’t and won’t be commenting on it publicly, so yeah I’ve just come on here to basically let you know the reasons as to why I can’t. Love.”
The pair were due to put on a live show of The Chunkz and Filly Show – their popular podcast and talk show – on October 18.
But Barrientos has been ordered to stay in Australia after he was arrested last week and charged with three counts of sexual assault.
He was also charged with four counts of sexual penetration without consent and one count of impeding a person’s breathing or circulation by applying pressure to the neck.
Cops allege Barrientos – who was born in Colombia but moved to the UK as a refugee when he was a child – raped a woman in her 20s at a hotel in Perth on September 28 after a show the night before.
He continued his tour and last performed at Havana Nightclub on the Gold Coast two days before his arrest in Brisbane last Tuesday.
Barrientos – who appeared on Channel 4’s The Great Celebrity Bake Off in 2022 – was then extradited to Perth and was seen in handcuffs as he was marched through an airport.
Police say they have an “extremely strong” case that includes CCTV footage of the social media star on the night of the alleged offences.
His defence lawyer argued the victim was drunk at the time of the alleged ordeal on September 28, according to Channel 9.
YUNG Filly’s rise to fame saw him start out as a social media star.
The influencer got his big break on YouTube before moving into mainstream TV.
Although he goes by Yung Filly, his real name is Andres Felipé Barrientos.
He was born on August 6, 1995, and moved to the UK from Colombia when he was two years old.
Filly then relocated to southeast London during his childhood.
When asked what it was like growing up in the capital, he told Indy100: “I come from the bottom of the barrel…and that’s why I’m so grateful for the position I’m in now.
“My mum definitely shaped me with the lessons she taught me.
“She’s a single mum with three kids, my dad was a s*** dad so she just had to make it happen.
“She did loads of cleaning jobs. My mum worked at Poundland at the time I had some mad BBC series…just getting my mum out of the position she was in was just the biggest motivation.”
Filly is best known for being a member of the comedy group known as The Wall of Comedy.
He is affiliated with fellow YouTuber Chunkz and the pair have collaborated on many videos and tracks.
Over the years, Filly has also taken part in The Sidemen‘s Charity Football Match, organised by members Josh Bradley, Simon Minter, Tobi Brown, KSI, Ethan Payne, Vikram Barn and Harry Lewis.
He appeared in court last week where the prosecution said his alleged victim’s body is marked “by a history of violent acts”.
Barrientos was bailed following his first court hearing after stumping up $100,000AUD (£51,000).
He is banned from leaving the state and must also report to Perth Police Station in Northbridge regularly.
A downcast Barrientos was seen reporting there for the first time on Saturday, dodging cameras as he made his way in and back out.
He wore a dark baseball cap and a cream hooded jacket with black shorts and trainers as he jogged past reporters to enter the building.
Barrientos remained inside for just five minutes before leaving and once again refusing to speak to the journalists waiting outside.
He was seen again on Sunday in an all black outfit arriving at the same station.
Barrientos will remain Australia until December when his second hearing gets underway.
He was rapidly dropped by several brands and companies including FootAsylum, the Football Association (FA), Heinz and ASOS, after news of his arrest broke.

TWO festive TV channels are landing on Amazon Fire and Roku sticks this week, bringing with them more than 100 hours of content.
The pair of new free channels, which air content 24 hours a day, will be available via the Rakuten TV streaming platform.
The channels are called Rakuten TV Halloween and Rakuten TV 100% Christmas.
Both stations will exclusively stream movies, from Hollywood blockbusters to beloved classics.
They are free to watch, as long as you’re happy to watch adverts.
Rakuten TV Halloween is already live on the platform, having launched yesterday, and will be watchable until 4 November.
The channel will feature a spooky selection of films, like The Resurrection of Charles Manson and Jessabelle.
Tomorrow (16 October), Rakuten TV will also launch its Christmas channel, which will air festive classics until 8 January, 2025.
The channel will include titles like Christmas Eve and I’m Not Ready for Christmas.
Amazon Fire and Roku streaming stick owners can download the Rakuten TV app to watch both channels.
Though the Halloween station will also be available on LG Channels, Xiaomi and Vidaa.
Meanwhile, 100% Christmas will be on platforms such as Samsung TV Plus, LG Channels, Xiaomi and Vidaa.
Rakuten TV 100% Christmas is the latest festive channel to hit screens, but has managed to escape outrage for arriving ‘too early’.
GREAT! Christmas launched on 5 September, a whole 110 days before the big day itself.
It’s the earliest the channel has ever launched, and was met with disbelief from viewers.
“Hold on we haven’t passed Halloween yet for Christmas,” one person wrote on X at the time.
Though others welcomed the channel, saying: “I don’t mind, I can watch Christmas films anytime of year, I don’t see why people think they should only be watched at Christmas.
“Of course though, the obvious answer is if you think it’s too early don’t watch, simples!”
Here are some voice commands to try with your Roku mobile app, as revealed by the TV giant itself...
KING Charles and Queen Camilla are heading on their Australia and Samoa royal tour this week and are set for an action-packed nine days.
Their trip comes six years after Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s high profile trip Down Under which is said to have “broken” the couple.
According to a royal expert the Sussexes’ trip became a “catalyst” for leaving their roles as senior working roles and relocating to America.
Royal historian Tim Ewart spoke on Sky News Australia’s The Royals in Australia and said Meghan and Harry’s Australian tour was a huge success.
He claimed Meghan’s impact in Australia was “Princess Diana multiplied by two”.
Tim added: “They loved Australia and Australia responded to them.
“In those early days of Meghan and Harry, Meghan got an incredible reaction from the public.
“If Diana had been a breath of fresh air, it was Diana multiplied by two for Meghan.”
However, upon arriving back to the UK after their successful tour, Meghan and Harry felt they received little “praise and recognition” from The Firm.
Tim added: “Australia broke Harry and Meghan and was one of the catalysts for them leaving the royal family.
“She and Harry had expected they would get much more praise and recognition from that royal tour.”
Royal reporter Angela Mollard claimed Meghan grew frustrated following the trip, saying: “She was part of a big institution and she wasn’t the hero of it, she was a cog in the wheel and that became clear (after Australia).”
In their 2021 Oprah Winfrey interview, Meghan and Harry agreed that “things really changed” for them after the Australia tour.
Harry said: “It really changed after the Australia tour, after our South Pacific tour. It was the first time that the family got to see how incredible she is at the job.
“And that brought back memories.
“To see how effortless it was for Meghan to come into the family so quickly in Australia and across New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga, and just be able to connect with people.”
However, despite the tour’s “success”, within 18 months Meghan and Harry had stepped back from their royal roles and moved to California with their son Archie.
King Charles’ Australia tour this week is historic, given it’s his first there as reigning monarch, but it could be “extremely exhausting” for Camilla who “doesn’t like flying”, according to an expert.
The royal couple will land in Australia on Friday, then head to Samoa on Wednesday October 23, before departing for the UK on Saturday October 26.
Editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine Ingrid Seward told Fabulous: “Queen Camilla is 76.
“She gets very tired because she’s not born to this royal life.

Tim Ewart
“I know she’s been in it a long time, but she’s not born to it, and I think people sometimes forget that Camilla’s never actually had a job.
“I think she finds these trips extremely exhausting. She doesn’t like flying.
“She’s not a great traveller, and she’s not good in the heat, because you know her, you know, like a lot of women of her age her feet swell up, and she feels uncomfortable.
“So it’s not the most pleasurable thing to do for her to whisk across to Australia although it might be really exciting for somebody younger.”
Despite the tour being potentially taxing for Queen Camilla, the royal expert claimed she will make it a success.
Ingrid continued: “I don’t think it’s great for her, but she has got a great humour, and she’s absolutely lovely to everybody.
“She’ll take a hairdresser. She’ll take her dresser, Jackie.
“She’ll have plenty of staff around her to help her, and she’s she is just so good humoured that people really like her.
I think she [Queen Camilla] finds these trips extremely exhausting. She doesn’t like flying.
Ingrid Seward
“Even when there’s a dire situation she can turn it around and make and make it much better.
“She’s what we call an upper person.
“She makes the best of any situation, and she can always make it, you know, find some amusement somewhere to cheer everybody up.”
The King and Queen will start their trip in Sydney on October 18 before heading to capital Canberra three days later for a banquet with senior politicians.
It’ll be Charles’ 17th visit to Australia but his first trip to a Commonwealth nation since becoming King.
It’s also his first visit to Australia since 2018 when he opened the Commonwealth Games on the Queensland Gold Coast.
All State Premiers have been invited to the Canberra banquet, but not one has accepted to welcome Charles and Camilla at the reception, it’s reported.
Royal Editor for The Times Kate Mansey said on the Royals with Roya and Kate podcast that Charles will pause his cancer treatment during the trip, but pick it back up upon his return.
She said: “They’ve said he’s pausing his treatment during the tour, so they must be reasonably reassured that he can go that period of time.
“He’s been having treatment for quite some time now, since the beginning of the year, and on medical advice, he can pause it while he’s away and will resume it when he comes back.
“This doesn’t mean he’s finished his cancer treatment—there’s been no announcement on that point of view—but it is a sign that he’s perhaps well enough.”
By Matt Wilkinson, Royal Editor
IT was an announcement that sent shockwaves around the world – King Charles had cancer and would be stepping back from public-facing duty just 16 months into his reign.
For this no-nonsense, keep-calm and-carry-on Monarch — eldest son of the even more hard-headed Prince Philip — to admit he had to ease back on his workload meant one thing: it was bad.
Dutiful Camilla, 77, stood in for the King when he stepped back from a string of engagements including the Royal Maundy Service at Worcester Cathedral and a solo two-day visit to Belfast, both in March.
But fast forward just six months from the announcement and incredibly he is now fit enough to travel 10,000 miles for a gruelling tour of Australia and Samoa.
As one source close to the King, 75, told me: “The sun wasn’t shining in February but it is shining now.”
The King’s aides were keen to point out when he made his public comeback at a cancer hospital on April 30 that not all recovery programmes for cancer patients are the same.
Yet while he is “not yet out of the woods”, according to those in his inner circle, they add there is “great optimism” and treatment has gone “better than anyone would have thought”.
Today the details of exactly how the Royal Household put our much-loved Monarch back together again are revealed.
From exactly why he was pulled from duty to the pioneering treatments that meant he never lost his hair — and the real reason his wayward son, Harry, was given an audience of just 30 minutes.
Charles’ ordeal began in January when he revealed he needed a corrective procedure for an enlarged prostate.
He decided to allow the public to know what he was going through, which resulted in a huge outpouring of sympathy.
Charles was touched by the public reaction but also significantly buoyed when it was revealed the NHS website received 11 times more daily visits from men with similar concerns.
But then his condition would take a turn for the worse.
Charles was due to spend two nights in the London Clinic — where Kate was also being treated — so when he spent a third night in care, people started to become concerned.
Those worries were realised when tests revealed cancer.
But rather than hide this devastating news from the public he decided that following the supportive reaction to his prostate diagnosis he would allow it to be made public.
A carefully constructed plan inspired by Operation Bubble which protected the late Queen from Covid-19 was thrown into action.
He would have weekly treatment in London and factor in vital periods of rest time at Sandringham, Highgrove and Windsor.
But his health plan was thrown into turmoil when Prince Harry announced he would jet from Los Angeles to see his father.
While the King delayed his helicopter flight from Buckingham Palace to Sandringham, his wayward son was given just 30 minutes of his company at Clarence House.
Plans were in place to avoid the King contacting a secondary infection and Harry flying 5,000 miles on a jet was not ideal.
Aides prevented Harry, 39, joining his father at Sandringham fearing “we’d never get rid of him” and he needed to reduce his social contact while undergoing cancer treatment.
During this time a Freedom of Information request revealed the Department for Culture and Media had begun procurement for the King’s potential funeral — although sources say this is not unusual.
Suggestions that William had been lined up as a potential Prince Regent if the King was unable to carry out the position have been denied by Buckingham Palace.
But the King was withdrawn from all public duty for 103 days although he continued reading government red boxes.
It can now be revealed the decision to postpone his public facing role was made as a “precautionary measure” because of the King’s diminished immune response to other diseases.
The Royal Household copied Covid-style protocols — or tiers imposed by the Government during the pandemic — to minimise secondary infection such as seasonal cold or flu.
A source said: “We had to minimise potential risk from other people, not because he couldn’t do the job.”
But as winter turned into spring and weather became warmer it meant they could relax the Covid-style tiers.
This was demonstrated when the King emerged from the Easter Sunday service and was greeted by 60 well-wishers at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle.
Just days earlier, the monarch and his team had received news that the treatment had gone better than anyone could have expected.
One insider said: “He was raring to go after the positive results and didn’t want to hang around any longer.”
It meant the King told aides that a trip to Australia, seen as the most important tour a monarch will ever take, must go ahead in the autumn, as first revealed by The Sun.
