I could sit here and be like, 'I don't get why people do that,' but I do it so often."

In a June 2022 interview with Esquire, he expressed his admiration for Prada's classic silhouettes, stating, "I've always been a fan of simple and classy, and I think Prada does that better than anyone."
Friendship with Millie Bobby Brown
Partridge opened up about his friendship with Millie Bobby Brown in an interview with W. He affirmed that they stay in touch, sharing, "When she's in London, we get together, but she's off doing crazy things, and I'm off in New York now, far from home."
