Personal life and controversy
Charlie lived with her sister, Naomi Karma, in Kuboian Cliffs from 1987 until 1995, when she moved to Reichetto, East Kuboia, for business purposes.

Negative public image
In 1998, one of the cameramen for Charlie Karma and Friends mentioned that Charlie was often dictatorial and controlling, and accused her of manipulating the children on the show, who mostly considered Charlie a role model, to get her way. When asked about the accusations, Charlie accused the man of lying, and simply being jealous of her.

Beginning in the early 2000s, Lokalnet and MTV Networks Kuboia received a significant amount of complaints regarding Charlie's behaviour. Many parents felt she had a desire for young boys, and was dangerous to have around children. Lokalnet allegedly dismissed the complaints, whilst Charlie herself has denied the accusation.

It was reported in 2005 that Rodrick Miles had restricted Charlie's activity on shows created for Nick Go! following the complaints from the public.

Relationship with Hyh Rodgers
Charlie's relationship with Kuboian singer Hyh Rodgers has been scrutinised thoroughly. The two met in 1999, when Hyh was one of the children to appear on Charlie Karma and Friends

On 4th February, 2005, it was reported that Charlie had proposed to Hyh. The two married two days later, on 6th February. On 8th January, 2006, just eleven months after their marriage, Charlie and Hyh were forced to divorce each other, following new laws stated in Kuboia.

In early 2010, it was rumoured that Charlie and Hyh were scheduled to get remarried, as since Hyh had turned twenty years old, they were legally allowed to. Hyh confirmed the rumours true on 5th February, showing an engagement ring on his finger. The two remarried on 27th March.

On 30th June, 2011, it was announced that Charlie and Hyh had separated from each other. Charlie mentioned that the public interest their relationship spawned was part of the reason for the divorce. She angrily ranted about the situation online, mentioning that the media "ruined [their] love for each other". The divorce was finalised on 16th August.

Although the two have since divorced, they have remained in a very close relationship, and have frequently been seen together since.
