Personal life

Ah Chee's mother is Indigenous Australian (Nyoongar) with Dutch heritage. His father is Indigenous Australian (Nyikina & Yawuru) with Chinese heritage.[11] The family moved to the south-east Perth suburb of Armadale when Callum was three years of age. He is the youngest of three brothers – Brendon, who was also a professional Australian rules footballer who played for West Coast and Port Adelaide, and Jordan.

In 2025, Ah Chee and his family, led by eldest brother Jordan, designed the Brisbane Lions's Indigenous guernsey. The design reflected "not only Ah Chee’s journey to the Lions but his connection to his parents, brothers and the football club".[12]
