ICE Ejects Kanye West's Ex-Associate Milo Yiannopoulos, Returns Him to UK

British commentator Milo Yiannopoulos, previously associated with rapper Kanye West, has been sent back to the United Kingdom following his detention by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). This development was confirmed by federal law enforcement sources who spoke with TMZ.

Sources indicated that the right-wing personality, who once held an executive position with Kanye West, was moved from a detention centre located in Alexandria, Louisiana. He was then transported under federal supervision to an airport in a different state, from which he departed on a flight bound for the UK. It was reported that ICE later received confirmation from British authorities confirming Yiannopoulos's safe arrival after his exit from the United States.

The Department of Homeland Security’s spokesperson corroborated his deportation, stating he was sent “back to his home country.” Yiannopoulos's apprehension by ICE agents occurred on Thursday evening immediately upon his disembarking a flight at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport. Following his arrest, he was transferred to a holding facility in Louisiana designated for undocumented individuals awaiting removal proceedings.

A final removal order against Yiannopoulos was issued by a federal judge on July 22, 2026. This action came after he overstayed his authorised period in the United States, having initially entered the country legally in 2019.
