Less than a month after confirming her breakup from NFL player Braxton Berrios, Alix Earle was spotted dancing into the New Year with Tom Brady.
That’s right. The 25-year-old TikTok star and Dancing With the Stars runner-up seems to have a fondness for footballers, though 48-year-old Brady officially retired from the league in 2023. On New Year’s Eve 2025, Earle and Brady were seen getting pretty comfortable with one another in St. Barths. Multiple videos of the duo went viral on January 1, including one clip that showed Earle affectionately rubbing Brady’s back.
Still, the videos sparked more questions than answers. Did Alix Earle and Tom Brady attend the party together or just happen to hit it off? Was it just a casual flirtation or will this lead to a new age-gap relationship for the internet to fixate on? That’s yet to be determined, but here’s a complete timeline of the dating rumors so we can all keep up.
