Aussie YouTuber Spanian appears to debut new girlfriend after split from wife
Popular Australian YouTuber Spanian, real name Anthony Lees, appears to have ended his two-year marriage and started a romance with a new woman.
The ex-con, 35, who has amassed millions of followers online, looked to confirm his new relationship on Monday, cosying up next to a mysterious blonde.
“I’m in The Daily Telegraph because I have a missus, I’m in the news because I have a beautiful new missus,” Spanian wrote on social media.

Lees and his wife, Angela McColl, share a five-month-old boy. The pair tied the knot in August 2023.
Just a few weeks ago, McColl teased a tell-all on the former couple’s split.
“Who the f**k did I marry and have a kid to will be out shortly, shout-out to spanian.official, (sic)” she wrote.
She then walked back her comments, deleting the post.
“I was given wrong information … about a child being born at the same time as mine with the same person … I received fake ultrasounds, fake texts and fake photos. People crazy, everyone can unfollow me now,” she wrote, before making a joke about “crashing out”.
Lees, who has successfully become a full-time content creator, reportedly spent 12 years behind bars.
He now has almost one million followers on Instagram.
He regularly visits economically depressed suburbs in Sydney, giving a fly on the wall take on them.
He also owns a food truck.
