Braxton Berrios is moving on.
The Houston Texans' wide receiver no longer follows his ex-girlfriend, social media personality Alix Earle, on TikTok after they broke up last month.
Her account used to be the only one that he followed on TikTok, and now his following count is zero. He does, however, still follow the influencer on Instagram.
The timing of the NFL star's social media move has fans scratching their head as it follows Earle seemingly flirting with Tom Brady during a New Year's Eve yacht trip. She posted a vlog of her time that she spent with friends on social media.
“Rumor has it we’re still dancing new friends, new memories, and new beginnings to start off the new year:),” Earle captioned her post on Instagram, wearing a red bikini on a yacht in St. Barths as well as videos and photos of herself partying into the New Year.
“Words can’t describe how amazing this trip was. So grateful to @bgarlinghouse & @taragarlinghouse for hosting us & @managermyles for throwing the best nye party EVER!!!”

Alix Earle confirms Braxon Berrios break up
Earle and Berrios ended their long-distance relationship after almost two years together.
Rumors began to swirl during the latter half of the year after fans shared their frustration with the NFL star for not supporting her during her appearance on Dancing With the Stars. However, he did support her via social media during the time, and other fans chalked it up to be because of his busy NFL schedule.
After the speculation persisted, with fans thinking they weren't getting the full scope of their relationship, Earle confirmed that the two decided to go their separate ways.
“Braxton and I are no longer together,” she tearfully told fans on social media. “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.”
Earle admitted that their relationship was starting to get difficult due to her being based in Miami and him being in Houston after he signed a one-year deal with the Texans.
“I think that was a scary thing for me to realize because it meant us not being in the same place,” she admitted. “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.”
She also felt that because she was getting busy as well, she couldn't be physically at games to support him, which is what she believes he deserves.
“I want him to have someone with him 24/7 who can support him and be there for him,” she continued. “And he wasn’t really expecting that of me. I think it was more a me thing but I constantly felt guilty.”
Earle concluded her message, noting that he still means a lot to her and wishes him the best.
“And I love Braxton. He’s my best friend, you know? So it’s been really difficult as we’re trying to go forward with this,” she added.
Berrios has not shared a statement, but this move on social media might be a view of how he feels as the Texans continue to progress in the playoffs.
As for the romance rumors between Earle and Brady, neither has confirmed they are dating.
