TikTok star Alix Earle is breaking down her biggest dating “red flags” following her breakup from Braxton Berrios.
“What do you think your own biggest red flag is?” Earle, 25, asked fellow influencer Jake Shane on the Thursday, January 15, episode of her new “Get Real With Me” YouTube series. “Maybe [mine are] my commitment issues. I just feel, like, committing to anything [is a challenge], like, I change my mind.”
Shane, 26, however, didn’t think Earle actually “had those” issues since she had been in “multiple long-term relationships.”
Earle, who most recently dated Berrios, 30, went on to start a conversation about snooping through a partner’s cell phone.

“Of course, everyone’s — except I’ve never gone through Braxton’s phone,” she claimed. “I never went through this phone ‘cause I trusted him.”
While Earle and Berrios seemingly trusted one another, that can’t be said for all of the influencer’s past romances.
“One of my boyfriends went through my phone and I got in big trouble,” she quipped. “It was the group chat with the girls [that] got us all in trouble, but it wasn’t anything serious.”
Us Weekly confirmed in December 2025 that Earle and Berrios broke up after almost two years of dating.
“Braxton and I are no longer together. We have been doing long distance since, basically, June and we haven’t got to see each other that often,” Earle said in an emotional TikTok video that same month. “It’s just been really difficult for me. I think that was a scary thing for me to realize because it meant us not being in the same place.”

She continued, “A part of me also really wants to be focusing on myself right now. I just feel like I can’t be what Braxton needs. I want him to have someone who can be there for him 24/7 and support him. He wasn’t really expecting that of me … I constantly felt guilty.”
Earle moved to California in fall 2025 to compete on Dancing With the Stars season 34, which she ultimately finished in second place, while Berrios split his time between Texas and Florida.
“It just kinda feels like we’re on two different paths right now and it sucks,” Earle acknowledged. “We’re on good terms and I don’t want anyone to come for him or be mean to him. I think I ultimately just wanted to go with trusting my feelings. This has just been really hard. … It’s not because he did anything wrong or I did anything wrong. It just didn’t really feel like it was working out in the moment.”

Berrios, who plays professional football for the Houston Texans, has not publicly addressed the pair’s breakup but has reportedly unfollowed Earle via social media.
As for Earle, she has since moved on and was even spotted hanging out with Tom Brady during a star-studded New Year’s Eve party.
“They met through mutual friends who were also in St. Barths and had an instant connection. There was a lot of chemistry between them,” a source exclusively told Us earlier this month. “It’s nothing serious between her and Tom, but they were together laughing, dancing and partying, enjoying themselves.”
