Alix Earle Addresses Tom Brady Relationship Rumors on Netflix Series

Alix Earle has addressed her rumored relationship with Tom Brady for the first time on her new Netflix reality series, Earle Meets World.

In the second episode, the 25-year-old influencer is rehearsing for Dancing with the Stars with partner Val Chmerkovskiy when his wife, Jenna Johnson, asks about her love life.

“So it’s, like, confirmed?” Johnson asks after Earle says she is “having fun.” Earle responds with a shrug and repeats, “No, I’m just having fun.”

Johnson then references Earle’s previous relationship with NFL player Braxton Berrios before jokingly bringing up Brady.

“Then you were like, ‘Tom, come over, cutie,’” Johnson says while pretending to make a phone call.

Earle replies that she is doing well.

Rumors about Earle and the 49-year-old retired NFL star began after they were seen together at a New Year’s Eve event in St. Barts. Videos showed the pair dancing, laughing and talking at the party.

They were later spotted together again during Super Bowl weekend in February. Videos shared on social media showed Earle and Brady talking and dancing at a party ahead of the Super Bowl. A source subsequently told PEOPLE that the two were “hooking up.”

Earle’s reported connection with Brady came shortly after her breakup with Berrios, whom she had dated for two years. Earle later said in an emotional TikTok that their long-distance relationship had become difficult while Berrios was managing his NFL schedule and she was filming Dancing with the Stars.

In another TikTok, Earle reflected on adjusting to being single, saying she had often moved from one relationship to another.

“I was, like, a boyfriend hopper,” she said. “This year, I’m gonna be dedicated to being OK with being alone.”

Earle Meets World premiered on Netflix on Friday, Sept. 4.
