Social media influencer Alix Earle is starting 2026 in the spotlight following her split from Houston Texans wide receiver Braxton Berrios. The couple dated for nearly two years before parting ways in late 2025. Now, Earle has sparked fresh speculation after being spotted with NFL legend Tom Brady at a New Year’s Eve celebration. While neither has confirmed a romance, Earle just broke her social media silence with her first post of the new year, leaving fans buzzing with questions.

“2026, we have arrived,” Alix Earle wrote as a caption for her first Instagram post of the new year.

Brady and Earle were reportedly spotted together at an event in St. Barths on December 31. In videos that have since gone viral on social media, the former New England Patriots quarterback and the Dancing with the Stars runner-up were seen chatting and dancing together at the party. Alix Earle was also seen moving closer to whisper something in Brady’s ear as they shared a laugh.

Shortly after the clip went viral, insider sources also confirmed these interactions to Star Magazine.

“Tom and Alix were all over each other,” the source shared. “She couldn’t keep her hands off him. He kept leaning in, whispering in her ear. It looked like they kissed. She was rubbing his back really affectionately. The PDA was off the charts. They didn’t care who was watching.”

While Alix Earle was with Braxton Berrios, Tom Brady was linked to Irina Shayk in an on-again, off-again relationship after splitting up with his ex-wife, Gisele Bundchen, in 2022. Brady and Bundchen were together for 13 years and have two children together.

As this new pairing has sent social media into a frenzy, fans have flooded Alix Earle’s social media expressing excitement about the potential new couple. Supportive messages and enthusiastic reactions have flooded comment sections as followers celebrate this fresh start for both.
