One of the NFL's most popular significant others has apparently split with her boyfriend.
According to Us Weekly and People, Early and Houston Texans wide receiver/kick returner Braxton Berrios have split up. The two have been together for two years.
"Alix Earle and Braxton Berrios have broken up after more than two years together," Zoey Lyttle of People wrote. "Multiple sources confirm to PEOPLE that the couple recently split and that the breakup was mutual. Reps for the stars could not immediately be reached for comment."
The outlet noted that Berrios had been absent from Earle's 11-week run on Dancing with the Stars. Earle dismissed that notion as Berrios being simply prioritizing his NFL duties. Berrios also remained supportive of Earle through social media.

The two appeared to still be together as early as October through some photos of the two together.
Earle is a social media personality who rose to prominence on TikTok and has since expanded her brand to include a popular podcast, investments and music video appearances. As far as her aforementioned appearance on Dancing with the Stars, she made it to the finale before losing to Robert Irwin.
Berrios is an eight-year NFL veteran who has played for four different teams. He won a Super Bowl with the New England Patriots as a rookie in 2018 and earned First-Team All-Pro honors as a kick returner with the New York Jets in 2021.
Berrios and Earle officially announced that they were together in November 2023, and later revealed that they had been seeing each other since February after meeting at a party.
Earle had previously been in a short relationship with baseball player Tyler Wade, with that relationship lasting around three months.
It's not clear what may have caused the couple to split, if that is the case.
