Alix Earle is TikTok’s people’s princess, so naturally, her fans are keen to know who, exactly the app’s de-facto prince may be.
The social media star confirmed her relationship with NFL player Braxton Berrios back in 2023, after months of speculation from followers. The Miami-based influencer was linked to the athlete for several months, fuelling the fire herself with some coy AF TikToks before she let us all in on the details of her love life.
But while Braxton may be a major name in football, Alix’s non-sporty or non-American fans may be wondering who TF he is. DW, we’ve got you.
Who Is Braxton Berrios?
Born in 1995, Braxton Berrios is a professional NFL player and currently a wide receiver at the Houston Texans.
Having attended high school in Raleigh, North Carolina, Braxton was a standout football player and would go on to the University of Miami where he would play for the Miami Hurricanes.
In 2018, he was drafted by the New England Patriots, then went on to play for the New York Jets. In 2023, he was picked up by the Miami Dolphins, before moving to Houston.
How Did Braxton & Alix Meet?
Alix and Braxton initially met back in February 2023 at a party in Miami. Two weeks later, the pair reconnected at the SuperBowl, where they ran into each other multiple times throughout the festivities.
Alix has since told fans that she wasn’t sure about Braxton back in February 2023, as he had recently just gotten out of a two-year-long relationship. The pair maintains that they were “just friends” at this point, but things eventually turned romantic and… voila!
How Long Have They Been Dating?
It was back in March 2023 that fans began to speculate that Alix was seeing someone, as she had been hinting at it in her iconic GRWM videos. After months of rumours, Alix was insistent that she did not have a boyfriend, despite multiple sightings of the pair together.
It wasn’t until November 2023 that Alix and Braxton hard-launched their relationship at the Espy Awards, and while Alix was still claiming they were not exclusive, later that month that she referred to Braxton as her “boyfriend” on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast.
The rest is history… With Braxton now playing in Houston and Alix still based in Miami, she has revealed that she will be travelling to and from Texas quite a bit this season.
