Fans of influencer Alix Earle are heartbroken to find out that her long-term relationship with ‘NFL man’ is no longer in the picture
Taking off from her TikTok career in late 2022, influencer Alix Earle has faced a challenging breakup this December. Known for her popular “get ready with me” videos, Earle has been a relatable content creator for almost three years. From talks about her struggles with acne to showing her chaotic and real life, fans love her for her authentic lifestyle.
In February 2023, Earle met the former Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios at an event, and their relationship was later confirmed on Alix Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast in November 2023, with Earle referring to him as “NFL man.”
The couple became a fan favorite, with Alix showing the ins and outs of their relationship through social media. From traveling together to spending time with the Earle family, their fanbase continued to grow.
On Mar. 14, 2025, Berrios revealed he was traded to play for the Houston Texans, while Earle stayed in Miami to pursue her career as an influencer. On May 22, Earle announced she would be joining “Dancing with the Stars” season 34 where she would partner with Val Chmerkovskiy. Fans started speculating a break up when Berrios failed to attend Earle’s dedication night during his bye week in mid October. With Earle performing 11 shows and making it into the final, Berrios failed to attend any of her shows. In late November fans were concerned to see that Berrios did not attend the season 34 dancing with the stars final. Fans flooded Earle’s comment section demanding answers. Earle seemingly shut down rumors by replying to a comment under her GRWM TikTok stating “He couldn’t come bc of football”. Fans were still speculating when Earle seemed to have still not met up with Berrios after her season with DWTS came to an end.
On Dec. 6, 2025, news outlets like People Magazine were informed of Earle and Berrios’s breakup by multiple anonymous sources close to the couple. Fans were going wild demanding an answer from Earle. After two weeks with no response on the rumor, Earle took to TikTok and Instagram on Dec. 14, 2025, confirming their split after two years together.
Earle went on to state that they were on “two different paths,” and were struggling to make long distance work after she fell in love with staying in LA. “We have been doing long distance since basically June, and we haven’t gotten to see each other that often,” said Earle. “It’s just been really difficult for me,” said Earle. Earle made sure to let fans know that the split was drama free and they still love each other and asked for no hate towards Berrios.
