Alix Earle finally addressed the speculation surrounding her relationship with Tom Brady, giving viewers her most revealing response yet during her new Netflix reality series.
"I don't know what's going on," Earle said when asked about her dating life. The exchange appeared in an episode of Earle Meets World, which premiered on Netflix on September 4.
The conversation came when Jenna Johnson, wife of Earle's Dancing With the Stars partner Val Chmerkovskiy, visited rehearsals.
Johnson followed up by asking if the situation was "confirmed." Earle shrugged before responding, "No, I'm just having fun."
She then added, "I know, a lot has changed since last time," without explaining what had changed or putting a label on the relationship.
When Johnson asked how she was doing after her breakup from NFL player Braxton Berrios, Earle kept her answer brief.
"I'm good," she said.
Earle and Berrios ended their two-year relationship in December 2025. About a month later, Earle and Brady were seen together at a New Year's Eve gathering in St. Barths.
Videos from the event showed the two talking, laughing and dancing together. They were later spotted together again during Super Bowl weekend.
A source subsequently told People that the pair were "hooking up."
Brady himself deflected the rumors when asked about his personal life, instead steering the conversation toward his children and professional commitments.
"You know what? I don't have much time for a personal life or much time for myself, but I love working, and I love my kids," Brady told People.
"I like to be busy and try to really stay fulfilled in the things I'm doing, so I'm working on some really cool projects, and I'm involved with some great teams of people that are doing some really positive things," the NFL legend insisted.
Before the Brady speculation took over, Earle had been candid about adjusting to life without a boyfriend.
After her split from Berrios, she discussed the experience in an emotional TikTok, admitting that she had spent much of her life in relationships.
"I think I've just always had boyfriends. I was, like, a boyfriend hopper," she said.
Earle said she wanted to learn how to be comfortable on her own, even though she found the adjustment difficult.
"This year, I'm gonna be dedicated to being OK with being alone," she said. "But I don't know why I can't do it. This is like growth or something, but I'm sad."
The Brady discussion is part of Earle Meets World, which follows Earle as she navigates her career, family and life in the public eye.
The series also examines her friendships, professional relationships and the experience of becoming famous through social media before expanding into television.
