Braxton Berrios reportedly gave his first reaction ever since his ex-girlfriend, Alix Earle's, dating rumors with Tom Brady made headlines.
Tom Brady and Alix Earle's unexpected New Year's Eve connection has taken over the internet by storm. Simultaneously, the fans have kept their eyes on Alix's ex-boyfriend and NFL wide receiver, Braxton Berrios, as the couple broke up a month before the recent buzz. It all began when the influencer was spotted getting cozy with the retired football legend in St. Barths. After a brief silence, Braxton, 30, has finally given a subtle yet pointed reaction to the new rumours, adding fuel to the already viral buzz. Here's what he did.
Shortly after the videos of Alix Earle and Tom Brady's alleged flirting went viral from a New Year's Eve party, fans noticed that Braxton had quietly unfollowed his ex, Alix, on TikTok. For those unaware, the NFL wide receiver used to only follow one account belonging to the 25-year-old social media influencer. Subsequently, his following count has now turned to zero after he unfollowed her.
However, despite his new move, the Houston Texans wide receiver continues to follow Alix on Instagram. Yet, his TikTok move was widely seen as a clear sign that he did not want to get involved in the alleged speculations around Alix and Tom. Although Page Six attempted to contact both Alix and Braxton's representatives, they did not receive a reply. Yet, the timing of the NFL player has sparked rumours.
Just two weeks after Alix Earle, 25. announced her breakup from Braxton Berrios, she was seen partying with Tom Brady, 48, at a star-studded New Year's Eve party in St. Barths. According to a source who spoke to Page Six, the two met at a yacht party and quickly broke off from their larger group. According to US Weekly, the pair had an "instant connection" and a "lot of chemistry." In the viral video, Alix was seen whispering into Tom's ear and resting her hand on his back as they danced closely together on a crowded dance floor. Consequently, it is unclear whether they continued their connection later or not. At the same time, neither of them has reacted to the rumours.
Alix Earle and Tom Brady's appearance comes just weeks after she officially ended her two-year-long relationship with Braxton Berrios. According to Page Six, the breakup occurred in December 2025, when the former couple felt that their long-distance relationship and differing priorities had strained their relationship. Us Weekly reported that they had realised they were on "two different paths" and Alix herself confirmed the news in an emotional TikTok. In her words:
"Braxton and I are no longer together. We have been doing long-distance since basically June, and we haven't seen each other that often. It's just been really difficult for me. … It sucks."
Alix added that she wanted to focus on herself, whereas Braxton needed a partner who could be physically present more often. Furthermore, she clarified that there were no other dramas, no mistakes, no clashes, or any third-party involvement that led to the breakup. They just felt the relationship was not working out.
