Did Braxton Berrios Unfollow Ex Alix Earle After Tom Brady Outing?
Braxton Berrios may be sending a subtle message on social media.
On Friday, January 9, eagle-eyed fans noticed that the 30-year-old NFL player appeared to unfollow ex Alix Earle, 25, on Instagram. Life & Style can confirm that Berrios had previously only followed Earle on the app—and now, he isn’t following anyone.
The apparent unfollow comes just over a week after Earle was spotted cozying up to NFL legend Tom Brady, 48, in St. Barts on New Year’s Eve. TMZ published a video showing the duo dressed up at a nightclub, whispering to each other and laughing, with Earle even resting her hand on Brady’s back.
“Alix and Tom were together the entire night on New Year’s Eve partying at a party hosted by Palm Tree Crew in St. Barths,” a source told Journalposts. “They met through mutual friends who were also in St. Barths and had an instant connection. There was a lot of chemistry between them.”
While Earle isn’t looking for “anything serious” after her breakup with Berrios, the insider said she was “really into hanging out with” Brady. “It’s nothing serious between her and Tom, but they were together laughing, dancing and partying, enjoying themselves,” the source explained. Earle “needed” a fun trip following her split and is “in a phase of saying yes to fun experiences and not overthinking anything.”
The insider added that Earle is “having fun right now and letting loose” while Brady, initially hesitant to be seen in public with her, “didn’t want to leave her side” throughout the night.
Earle and Berrios ended their two-year relationship in December 2025, after struggling with long-distance. Earle moved to Los Angeles to pursue opportunities, including her appearance on Dancing With the Stars, and told TikTok followers days after the split:
“Braxton and I are no longer together. We have been doing long distance since, basically, June and we haven’t gotten to see each other that often. It’s just been really difficult for me.”
She added, “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.” Earle admitted she “constantly felt guilty” about not being able to show up for him, emphasizing, “We’re on good terms and I don’t want anyone to come for him or be mean to him.”
Despite Earle moving into Berrios’ Miami home earlier in 2025, their split was amicable but bittersweet. Sources told The Blast how Berrios might be feeling about the viral St. Barts photos. One insider said he “must be fuming,” while another suggested he “has no concern over what she did or will do [with Brady], and was not upset at all.”
