Influencer Alix Earle and Houston Texans wide receiver Braxton Berrios have called it quits after nearly two years together, multiple sources confirm. The mutual breakup stems from the challenges of their long-distance relationship. Fans had speculated after Berrios missed Earle's Dancing with the Stars appearances.
Oh honey, the tea is piping hot: Alix Earle, the 24-year-old TikTok queen and recent Dancing with the Stars runner-up, has reportedly dumped her single status back on after two years with NFL star Braxton Berrios. Us Weekly and People spilled the details on December 6, citing multiple insiders who say the split was mutual. "Majority of their relationship was long-distance and it was hard for them to navigate," one source told Us Weekly. "They mutually agreed on the split." 😩
The drama simmered just days after fans dragged Berrios for ghosting the DWTS audience—Earle clapped back, blaming his packed NFL schedule. But rewind to their meet-cute: the pair connected at a party in February 2023, sparking romance rumors that summer when a sneaky TikTok fan vid caught them cozy at a Miami restaurant. Earle nicknamed him "NFL Man" back then—adorbs, right? They played it coy for months, went Instagram official, and Earle confirmed the vibes on the Call Her Daddy podcast. Sealed the deal with a red carpet glow-up at the July 2023 ESPY Awards. 💥
Things looked lovey-dovey as recent as early October, with cutesy IG shoutouts—Alix even commented "Love you" under his post. But long-distance woes won out. No official word from their camps yet, per TMZ. Meanwhile, Earle was out here serving looks on a yacht Friday night post-Art Basel, dancing in a skin-tight dress that had everyone (us included) doing a double-take. Iconic rebound energy? So, is Alix ready to slide into the DMs of someone new, or is this just halftime? 👀
