Alix Earle is back in Miami and dancing solo. Here’s what we know

Alix Earle’s relationship status has changed — to single.

That’s the word on the Internet street. The mega influencer has reportedly broken up with her NFL player boyfriend Braxton Berrios.

A good majority of Earle’s millions of followers probably already detected an issue between the couple of roughly two years.

The former Miami Dolphins wide receiver had been more or less MIA during Earle’s wildly successful run on “Dancing with the Stars” (she and partner Val Chmerkovskiy came in second!). While Berrios, who was traded to the Houston Texans over the summer, did support Earle via online messages, the 30-year-old never graced the ballroom stage in Los Angeles.

Once Earle got back home for Art Basel, Berrios wasn’t around, either. On Saturday night, the TikTokker showed up solo to Nylon magazine’s fab party on the beach that featured a surprise concert by Ellie Goulding, who was rocking a baby bump.

One had to assume Berrios bailed because he had an away game on Sunday vs. the Kansas City Chiefs. But there was more to his absence. The two had already called it quits, according to widespread media reports.

“The majority of their relationship was long-distance and it was hard for them to navigate,” an insider tells UsWeekly, adding the breakup was mutual.

We don’t worry about Earle in the slightest. The UM grad, who came in second place to mirrorball trophy winner Robert Irwin, is still basking in the glow of her newly acquired abs. Thanks to her star turn on the beloved TV show, she will also be super busy, guest starring on the “DWTS” live tour starting January 2026. ,

In the spring, the tour makes a number of stops in Florida; on March 29, it hits the Seminole Hard Rock & Hotel in Hollywood.

We don’t worry about Berrios either, but we hate to see young love die.
