Simeon Boikov, an Australian pro-Vladimir Putin activist who was granted asylum in the consulate in 2022, posted a video to YouTube on October 5 in which he claimed Freeman's brother, James Filby, had reached out to him.

Boikov claimed Filby said Freeman had been a fan of his and had encouraged others to watch Boikov's videos during the COVID-19 pandemic.
