Influencer Alix Earle and Houston Texans wide receiver Braxton Berrios have been a couple for some time now, but it took a lot for them to get there. From Earle’s vague GRWM TikToks mentioning date nights to moving in together, the pair’s situationship in 2023 had their fans in a frenzy, especially after Berrios’s breakup with TLC star Sofia Culpo. Earle has overall kept a pretty low-key dating history before Berrios, but was previously linked to MLB player Tyler Wade in 2022. Now, Earle and Berrios are a couple that TikTok can’t help but ship, and their relationship timeline shows the ups and downs of it all.
The situationship-turned-relationship had lots of twists and turns, but it resulted most recently in the pair moving in together in April of 2025. The pair is coming up on their two-year anniversary, and fans have lots to look forward to — with Berrios joining the Houston Texans this NFL season and Earle vying for the Mirrorball Trophy on Dancing With The Stars Season 34. To find out how they got here, let’s take a look back at their relationship timeline.

Kicking off fan speculation, Earle posted in a now-deleted TikTok in March of 2023 hinting at a date night with an unnamed man. She mentioned making sushi, someone she “met the other night,” and the video revolved around her getting all glammed up, so fans could only guess what kind of night the TikToker was getting ready for. Now, to be clear, Earle never said she was making sushi with Berrios — she was single and dating at the time.
