Alix Earle had ‘terrible’ run-in with NFL ex-boyfriend Braxton Berrios

Alix Earle didn’t hold back while recalling her “weird” run-in with her ex-boyfriend, Texans return specialist Braxton Berrios, at Palm Tree Music Festival in Aspen, Colo. over the weekend.

During a un-get ready with me TikTok video, Earle explained that it was “just really hard for me” to see Berrios for the first time since their breakup, which she confirmed last December after two years together.

“I know a lot of you guys keep asking me, but yes, I did see my ex this weekend for the first time since October,” Earle said.

“It was honestly just really hard for me — really weird, really hard. I was really emotional. The first night we were like in the same place but we didn’t say hi to each other, just because I didn’t want to go up and annoy him, I don’t know, but I could see him out the corner of my eye.”

Earle added that “we briefly said hi to each other” during another run-in “the second night” she was in Aspen.

“It’s weird when you go from someone being like your best friend to being a stranger in the corner of the room,” Earle said. “So that was tough, and by tough I mean terrible.”

Earle and Berrios made waves online when fans noticed they were both attending the festival in Aspen in videos online.

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model confirmed her split with Berrios after two years of dating in a tearful TikTok video on Dec. 13 amid reports they had called it quits.

Earle, a New Jersey native, cited long distance for the reason they broke up, adding that it was an amicable decision to go their separate ways.

“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,” Earle said at the time.

She previously said she needs to focus on herself and being alone for a while following their split.

Earle was linked to retired quarterback Tom Brady after the pair were spotted getting cozy together at a New Year’s Eve party in St. Barts.

The Fox Sports analyst and the “Dancing With The Stars” alum were seen talking closely and rubbing each other’s backs in videos on social media.

Brady and Earle have yet to address the buzz.
