Celebrity News: Alix Earle and Braxton Berrios Split After Two Years Together
CELEBRITY NEWS – Alix Earle, the charming dancer from Dancing With the Stars, has confirmed her split with NFL player Braxton Berrios after nearly two years of being together. This news comes as a surprise to many fans who had watched their relationship evolve over time.
Long-Distance Struggles
The break-up between Earle and Berrios, a wide receiver for the Houston Texans, was largely influenced by the long-distance nature of their relationship. “Majority of their relationship was long-distance,” an insider told Us Weekly. “It was hard for them to navigate.” This challenge underscores the difficulties couples face when one partner is away due to professional commitments.
Supportive Ex-Boyfriend
Berrios, who was not in attendance at Earle’s recent Dancing With the Stars finale due to his NFL schedule, sent a supportive message in her direction. In a prerecorded video, he said: “I’ve watched you pour everything into this since the moment it has started, and I think it shows. Good luck. Have fun, babe.” This gesture highlights the mutual respect they shared during their time together.
Previous Relationship Dynamics
The relationship between Earle and Berrios had a tumultuous start. They were first spotted in public together in May 2023, following his split from Sophia Culpo, who accused him of cheating. Berrios refuted these allegations on his Instagram Story, stating that “things weren’t working out” with them and their breakup “had nothing to do with anybody else.” Earle’s relationship with Berrios was also tested when she shared a different story on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast in September 2023. She alleged that Berrios and Culpo were not together at the time she struck up a casual romance with him, recalling her emotional state during the infidelity rumors.
Public Acknowledgment of Their Bond
Earle’s relationship with Berrios was publicly acknowledged in November 2023 when they celebrated their one-year anniversary. She wrote on Instagram: “To the person who taught me to love wholeheartedly .. happy 1 year ❣ You have become so much more than my best friend and partner.” This statement reflects the depth of their connection, despite the challenges they faced.
Future Focus
In February, Earle opened up about her relationship with Berrios, emphasizing that they were focused on their careers. “We always talk about our future,” she told Us Weekly. “Right now, we’re so focused on our careers that we live in the moment and don’t rush into anything.” This insight provides a glimpse into how they balanced their personal lives with professional commitments.
While Earle joked about a potential engagement earlier this year, she insisted that there was no set timeline for taking that step. “I think we are just kind of letting each other live right now, and we’ll see where we end up,” she explained to Us Weekly in January. This approach reflects their cautious yet optimistic outlook on the future.
Despite the split, both parties remain supportive of each other’s endeavors. Berrios’ continued support for Earle during her Dancing With the Stars journey is a testament to the strength of their relationship before it ended.
