Braxton Berrios Reacts To PDA-Packed Alix Earle Birthday Tribute

NFL star Braxton Berriosseems ready to introduce Instagram to his new girlfriend, TikTok star Alix Earle.

Although the pair has been linked since May 2023, the two have seemed reticent to share their relationship with the world, despite showing up together at the 2023 ESPY Awards.

On October 6, however, Alix posted a photo of the two making out beside the beach in Miami, Florida, to celebrate his birthday.

On October 6, the social media sensation took to Instagram to share a photo of the two together. He is lifting her up in his arms while she wraps her legs around his waist. Her arms are around his neck as she kisses him, obscuring both of their faces from the camera lens.

Although she didn’t tag him in the post, she did write, “hbd nfl man,” which made it pretty clear who she was talking about, since Berrios’ birthday is also the same day. Berrios also seemed to confirm once and for all that they were finally together, writing, “Big fan of this” in the comments.

“This is the hardest f---ing launch ever to exist,” one fan commented. “I can’t believe you put Braxton Berrios on the map,” another follower joked. “I feel like I should be able to FaceTime you and ask you about this and I don’t even know you,” a third fan chimed in. “I’m way too invested in this relationship and I have zero shame,” another follower confessed.

Braxton Berrios recently split from “The Culpo Sisters” reality star Sophia Culpo earlier this year, although there was a lot of speculation from fans that the timeline between those relationships overlapped. Last month, Alix Earle appeared on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast to say that she was not the cause of the former couple’s breakup.

The social media star said that she received “triggering” comments online that called her a “homewrecker” and a “mistress.” She said these comments left her “bawling” her eyes out in front of friends as she struggled to deal with the negative attention.

“I spent my childhood basically thinking that this is the worst thing you could do to another human,” she said, referencing her father Thomas ‘TJ’ Earle’s affair. “So why the f— would I do that?”

Alix Earle insisted that the Miami Dolphins wide receiver and the younger sister of model Olivia Culpo “were not together” when the two started getting involved. She also pointed the finger at Sophia Culpo for starting drama online.

“The ex-girlfriend had started posting things alluding to unfaithfulness in the relationship online, and I was seen hanging out with this guy,” Alix explained. “So everyone kind of just pointed fingers at me.”

Alix confessed to acting “more psycho” than his ex at that point, demanding “receipts” from him “right away” to prove that he had not been cheating. “I was like, ‘There’s just no f–king way this happened,’” she said. “I was checking everything. We have probably been over this 110 times because I was like, ‘If you did that to a person, obviously of course, you’ll probably do that to me, too.’”

Although Braxton Berrios previously said that their relationship ended in mid-January, Sophia posted screenshots, obtained by TMZ, to her Instagram Stories that appear to show that their relationship did not end until February.

On January 31, Sophia texted him, “It seems like you’ve contemplated the alternative though.” Braxton replied: “No I haven’t. Don’t read into that.”

“Ok so you want to be with me,” Sophia wrote, to which he replied, “Yes I want to be with you.”

In screenshots that are dated February 11, Sophia texts Braxton: “I really hope it doesn’t blow up any more but that’s not in my control. What will be will be. And okay just lmk.”

Braxton replies: “It won’t. And I’ll do everything in my power to make sure of it. Cause I don’t want to be associated with anything like that obviously. You don’t deserve that and frankly neither do I.”

On top of the screenshots, Sophia wrote, “The real timeline. We broke up after the Drake concert at Super Bowl weekend where he was seen making out with another girl. Not bitter, in fact I know this situation has been one of my biggest blessings. I wish everyone in this situation all the best, including myself which is why I’m here to share the truth so I can officially be done with all of this. All love.”
