Alix Earle and Tom Brady had the internet buzzing when they were spotted celebrating New Year’s Eve together in St. Barts. Then, just a few weeks later, they were captured looking quite cozy at a Super Bowl weekend party.

Due to their age difference and Brady’s history with Earle’s NFL ex, news of this potential relationship made major headlines. Earle kept tight-lipped about the situation for months, but has finally addressed it on her new reality show Earle Meets World.

Scroll down for everything we know about whether Earle and Brady are a couple and more.

Are Alix Earle and Tom Brady dating?

No, Early and Brady are not dating. However, they first sparked romance rumors during the New Year’s Eve party, where Earle was seen rubbing Brady’s back as they leaned close to one another to whisper in each other’s ears in a video obtained by TMZ.

Upon arriving home, Brady added fuel to the speculation with a cryptic post on his Instagram Story. He shared a quote that said, “People are not beautiful for how they look or speak. They’re beautiful for how they love, care, and treat others.”

He then shared a graphic of a box with 99 red x’s and one green check mark, along with an emoji of a man raising his hand. The post said, “A winner is a loser who tried one more time.”

After their Super Bowl weekend reunion, People reported that Brady and Earle were “hooking up.”

The following week, Earle reunited with her Dancing With the Stars partner, Valentin Chmerkovskiy, and his wife, Jenna Johnson, for a rehearsal ahead of her guest appearance on the DWTS tour. This was documented for Earle Meets World, and in one scene, Johnson gossiped with the influencer about her love life.

“What is going on?!” she wondered, referring to the Brady rumors. Earle replied, “I don’t know what’s going on. I’m having fun.” When Johnson asked, “So it’s, like, confirmed?” Earle shyly responded, “No, I’m just having fun.”

Johnson also questioned how Earle was doing following her recent breakup from another NFL star. “I’m good,” Earle assured her, which prompted Johnson to joke, “Then you were like, ‘Tom, come over, cutie!'”

What is the age difference between Alix Earle and Tom Brady?

Earle and Brady have a 23-year age difference. At the time of their New Year’s Eve sighting, she was 25 years old, while he is 48 years old.

The influencer was born on December 16, 2000, while the Super Bowl champion’s birthday is August 3, 1977.

What other NFL player did Alix Earle date?

Earle’s NFL ex is Braxton Berrios. The two met in February 2023 at a party in Miami, where Earle lives, and casually dated for several months before making the relationship official later that year.

Berrios was on the New England Patriots with Brady during the 2018 football season, during which the team won a Super Bowl. Berrios was on the injured reserve list and did not play in any games.

In March 2025, Berrios was traded from the Miami Dolphins to the Houston Texans, so he and Earle began dating long-distance. They ended their romance in December.

“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 said, through tears, in a December 13 TikTok video. She explained that her time on Dancing With the Stars contributed to the breakup because it made her realize she could see herself living in Los Angeles, which would make the physical distance between her and Berrios even further.

“I think that was a scary thing for me to realize because it meant us not being in the same place,” she shared. “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.”
