Milo Yiannopoulos
Milo Yiannopoulos (/jəˈnɒpələs/ yə-NOP-əl-əs; né Hanrahan; born 18 October 1984) is a British far-right political commentator, whose speeches and writings criticise Islam, feminism, and social justice. He is a former editor of Breitbart News, an American far-right news and opinion website.
Yiannopoulos worked for Breitbart from 2014 to 2017. During this time, he rose to prominence as a significant voice in the Gamergate controversy. In July 2016, he was banned from Twitter for online harassment of actress Leslie Jones. He was permanently banned from Facebook in 2019. According to emails by Yiannopoulos leaked by BuzzFeed News in late 2017, Yiannopoulos solicited white nationalists, such as American Renaissance editor Devin Saucier, for story ideas and editing suggestions during his tenure at Breitbart.
In 2017, video clips circulated of Yiannopoulos stating that sexual relationships between 13-year-old boys and adults could be "perfectly consensual" and positive experiences for adolescents. Following backlash, Yiannopoulos resigned his position at Breitbart, his invitation to speak before the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) was rescinded, and Simon & Schuster cancelled a contract to publish his autobiography. In response, Yiannopoulos condemned sexual abuse, stated that he was referring to adolescent gay males rather than prepubescent boys, and that his statements reflected a humorous means of handling his own sexual abuse and experience with a priest.
In 2022, Yiannopoulos served as an intern for United States Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, later working with white nationalist Nick Fuentes, and rapper Kanye West on the latter's short-lived 2024 U.S. presidential election campaign. In April 2024, Yiannopoulos was listed as Chief of Staff at Yeezy Apparel, but stepped down on 15 May due to West's announcement of an adult entertainment division at the company.
Born as Milo Hanrahan, Yiannopoulos was born and raised in Chatham, Kent, England. His father is of half-Greek and half-Irish ancestry and his mother is German born. He is described as a practising Roman Catholic. His parents divorced when he was a child. Yiannopoulos' mother is allegedly Jewish. Raised by his mother and her second husband, Yiannopoulos has stated that he did not have a good relationship with his stepfather. As a teenager, Yiannopoulos lived with his paternal grandmother whose surname, Yiannopoulos, he later adopted.
Yiannopoulos was educated at Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys in Canterbury from which he has said he was expelled. He attended the University of Manchester but dropped out before graduating; he then read English at Wolfson College, Cambridge, but was expelled in 2010.
In 2017, Yiannopoulos was a U.S. resident alien on O-1 visa status. Milo married his long-term boyfriend in Hawaii in September 2017. In March 2021, during an interview with right wing publication LifeSiteNews, Yiannopoulos stated he was no longer homosexual and that his husband had been "demoted to housemate".
In October 2025, Yiannopoulos posted on X that he may have a brain tumour but had not been formally diagnosed.
