Alix Earle Opens Up About Split From Braxton Berrios: 'On Two Different Paths'

Alix Earle Breaks Silence on Breakup

Internet sensation Alix Earle has opened up about her recent breakup with NFL wide receiver Braxton Berrios, and the emotional toll it has taken on her. The couple, who had been dating for two years, faced mounting speculation about their relationship status, but it wasn't until December 13 that Earle confirmed the split to her followers in a heartfelt TikTok video. "I wanted to give you guys an update on my life," she began, explaining the difficulty of processing the breakup. People magazine had broken the news on December 6, and Earle, 24, finally addressed it directly to her fans.

"Braxton and I are no longer together," she tearfully revealed, adding, "It's just been really difficult for me."

Long-distance Woes and Career Moves

The couple's challenges were partly due to long-distance hurdles, with Berrios, 30, tied to his NFL commitments with the Houston Texans while Earle was busy capturing hearts on "Dancing With the Stars" in Los Angeles. Earle shared with her followers that living in LA, even temporarily, helped her realize she might want to make the move permanent, which would mean more distance between her and Berrios. "I realized I can't be what Braxton needs in a partner right now," she admitted, emphasizing her desire to focus on herself and her career ambitions.

Despite the emotional weight of the breakup, Earle was clear that the decision to part ways was mutual and amicable. "We're on good terms," she assured her fans, dispelling any rumors of drama or wrongdoing on either side.

Looking Back and Moving Forward

Earle and Berrios' romance began in the spring of 2023, following Berrios' previous relationship with model Olivia Culpo. Prior to their relationship, Earle had briefly dated San Diego Padres' Taylor Wade in 2022. Yet, it was her own burgeoning career that has kept her in the spotlight. Known for her viral "Get Ready With Me" videos on TikTok, Earle has been a social media dynamo, influencing trends with her unique brand of content. Her impact was recognized when she was named in the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in 2023 and celebrated on the Time100 Creators list.

As Earle navigates the next chapter of her life, her fans continue to support her journey and the "Alix Earle effect" remains strong, both in the social media sphere and potentially soon, in Hollywood.
