NFL wide receiver Braxton Berrios and social media personality Alix Earle have ended their two-year relationship, according to reports. The split marks the latest change in the lives of two rising stars who captured attention both on and off the field.
Sources confirmed to People that the breakup was mutual. The news comes after speculation arose when Berrios was absent from the finale of “Dancing with the Stars,” where Earle finished as a runner-up this season, as reported by the New York Post.
Earle, 25, addressed the rumors surrounding Berrios’ absence, explaining that his Houston Texans schedule prevented him from attending the pre-taped November 25th event. Page Six detailed her response to the speculation.
The Texans were scheduled to play the Indianapolis Colts later that week. This isn’t the first time the pair have had to address breakup rumors; Earle previously denied speculation about a split in 2024 when they weren’t seen together at the Coachella music festival.
Berrios, 30, who previously dated Sophia Culpo, was first linked to Earle in early 2023, and they publicly confirmed their relationship that fall. The couple frequently appeared together at high-profile events, including the 2023 ESPY Awards and the 2024 NFL Honors.
Earle shared a birthday message for Berrios on her Instagram page as recently as October 6th. She also posted photos of them embracing on the sideline at NRG Stadium in Houston in August, ahead of the NFL regular season.
Berrios, who achieved All-Pro status with the Jets following a breakout season as a kick returner and receiver, has seen limited action with the Texans this year, appearing in four games with six catches for 37 yards. The New York Post previously highlighted his rise to prominence with the Jets.
