Alix Earle is opening up to her TikTok followers about everything — except her relationship with NFL player Braxton Berrios. However, this situation is changing rapidly.
In an interview with NYLON , the influencer revealed that she documented the moment she and Barrios officially started dating after months of non-exclusive dating, and loved the process.
"We document the moment we formally say or ask or whatever," she said. "It's been fun and we filmed everything. [The relationship] feels good and it feels right now, so just have fun with it. We'll see where it goes."
Earle and Berrios hinted that they are now a couple while documenting a romantic trip to the Bahamas for TikTok. She opened up about balancing work and romance during the holidays, calling Berrios "super supportive" of her social media demands.
"I know the world can be very different from the work I do, and it does require patience at times, but he understands it and supports it," she said. "He always gave me time. I was editing something on my phone and he said, 'I know you're doing this right now. Take your time. You're working."
Earl and Barrios' relationship
Earle and Berrios were first spotted together at a restaurant in Miami in May 2023, sparking romance rumors.
However, her fans discovered she started dating someone new months ago, when Earle told fans in the "Get Ready With Me" video that she was making sushi with "someone I met the other night." , and keep their identities secret.
The pair were seen together multiple times this summer, but she denied they were dating in a TikTok comment. Even though they attended the 2023 ESPY Awards together, she insisted they were "not exclusive."
Finally, Earle confirmed that Berrios was her boyfriend during a live performance of Alex Cooper's "Call Her Daddy" in Chicago in November.
"NFL guy"
Now that the two are officially dating, Earle has become even more unguarded about their relationship, even having him appear on an episode of her podcast Hot Mess , where he was simply referred to as "NFL Man."
"I do share more [about our relationship] on the podcast, just because I'm talking about longer content," she said. "I'm still learning what those boundaries mean for me, so I'm still testing the waters so far, but I always say I'm pretty much an open book. What you see online is what you're going to get .”
