Personal Life

Puth has worked with clothing brand Hollister Co. since 2017.

During an interview on "On Air with Ryan Seacrest", Charlie disclosed that he suffered a nervous breakdown, stating "[The nervous breakdown happened from] just being overworked and I'm in my head a lot and that, in combination with jet-lag and you know the self-realization that I am getting more famous and my privacy goes out the window pretty much every day, it's just not what I'm used to and I don't think I'm ever going to be used to it and my therapy is to just put melody to it and sing it."

In 2020, due to the surging COVID-19 pandemic, Puth left his luxury Los Angeles home and moved back into his childhood home with his parents in New Jersey.
