Callux previously lived in a Stratford Halo apartment – the building known as the home of the sidemen, with Wroetoshaw and Calfreezy, having moved there in August 2014.

But the trio later moved into their own house, located in Bermondsey, sometime in 2018.

However, in 2020, Callux bought a house which he moved into around the same time Calfreezy and Harry moved into a new apartment.

But he made sure to tell his fans that while he no longer lived with them, his new house was very close to their new apartment – and their friendship still remained strong.
