Both Charles and Camille have largely kept their romance private, and have not spoken about the relationship publicly.
Announcing her pregnancy in just January, Camille posted: 'Making a lil family'.
It was then followed by a carousel of photos debuting her baby bump.
Charles appeared in several snapshots, including one of him kissing her bare stomach, and another showing the May December star with her at a doctor's appointment.
He previously dated Riverdale costar Camila Mendes from 2018 to 2021, and he coupled with Chase Sui Wonders in 2022.
At the time of his split from Camila, a source told E! News: 'Cami and Charles have been separated for a few months now. They are taking a break from their relationship.
'Their relationship escalated very quickly and they are taking time now to focus on their work and themselves.'
In 2021, they briefly sparked reconciliation rumors when they were spotted spending time together.
He later dated Chase Sui Wonders - whom he met on set of Wake - and the two stars were in a relationship throughout 2022.
A relationship with Chloe Bennet then followed in 2023, before ending the following year.

In 2019, Charles hit out at the interest in his relationships during an interview with Hunger magazine.
He fumed at the time: 'People need to mind their own f***ing business, honestly. I don’t have Twitter, and it’s one of the reasons why I don’t read through all my comments on social media, because people are always going to talk.
'No matter what, people have always talked, even before this age of Instagram, but back then you were less inclined to hear about someone talking about you, and honestly, it’s not their place to have any authority over my relationships.'
Charles added: 'Not everyone is going to be a supporter or a fan of your relationship, and people need to remember that opinions aren’t facts.'
