Alix Earle Announced Split From Braxton Berrios
Alix Earle announced her split from Braxton Berrios in December 2025.
Earle’s steamy night out with the football star came weeks after she announced her split from Braxton Berrios after over two years of dating.
“Braxton and I are no longer together. We have been doing long distance since, basically, June and we haven’t got to see each other that often,” Earle said in a December 2025 TikTok video. “It’s just been really difficult for me.”
She continued, “I think that was a scary thing for me to realize because it meant us not being in the same place. A part of me also really wants to be focusing on myself right now. I just feel like I can’t be what Braxton needs. I want him to have someone who can be there for him 24/7 and support him. He wasn’t really expecting that of me … I constantly felt guilty.”
