Breaking into television, Ehrich played Randy in two episodes of Ugly Betty.[4] He then played 16-year-old jock Jesse Moretti in the 2009 Lifetime TV-movie The Pregnancy Pact, starring Thora Birch, Camryn Manheim, and Nancy Travis.[5][6] He filmed two pilots for CBS in 2010, and later filmed as a guest star for the CMT sitcom Working Class, starring Melissa Peterman.[7] He played Adam in iStart A Fan War, a TV-movie for the Nickelodeon show iCarly.

In 2012, Ehrich joined the American CBS Daytime soap opera The Young and the Restless as Fenmore Baldwin.[8] The following year he received a Daytime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series for his portrayal.[9][10][11] Ehrich chose a scene where Fenmore tells Jamie that Summer is the one cyberbullying him.[12][13] From 2014 through 2015, he appeared in a recurring role throughout CBS' Under the Dome, as Hunter May.

Ehrich and singer Demi Lovato began dating in March 2020 and became engaged that July.[14] Two months later, the couple called off their engagement.[15][16]

On October 7, 2025, Ehrich was arrested in Florida on charges of domestic battery against an elderly family member,[17] later identified as his mother, Rhonda.[18] He posted bond and was released the following day.[19] According to the police report, Ehrich's mother claimed he had been "heavily" abusing inhalants, and the state's 5150 hold was cited.
