There have been no reports about the kid suffering any skin problems or illnesses. However, sources suggest that it could be due to an unforeseen medical condition. Such cases of skin discoloration generally occur when the person is suffering from certain deficiencies. And in the case of kids, it is mostly due to the lack of calcium in one’s body.

Another possibility for Charlie’s alleged condition could be due to a condition called vitiligo. For everyone who is not aware of the term, vitiligo refers to a condition that results in loss of skin color in blotches. The main cause of the disease is due to the malfunction of pigment-producing cells in the body.
