Retired NFL quarterback Tom Brady is relishing a casual romance with 25-year-old social media influencer Alix Earle, with sources describing the fling as “fun” and more intentional than a random encounter, though not overly serious.
The pair first sparked rumors over New Year’s while both were in St. Barts, attending the same yacht party where they hit it off and spent much of the evening talking. Insiders say they broke off from the larger group to continue their conversation in a private cabin. Video footage from the event captured them near the DJ booth, swaying on the dance floor, with Earle leaning in to whisper in Brady’s ear while caressing his back. Earle, a TikTok sensation with over 6 million followers, later described the Caribbean getaway as “really fun” and “the best trip of [her] entire life.”
They reconnected during Super Bowl weekend in San Francisco earlier this month, where they were filmed looking cozy at a private party, smiling, chatting and dancing closely together.
Brady, 48, a seven-time Super Bowl champion known for his disciplined lifestyle, “doesn’t hook up with just anyone,” a source said, adding that he is “very particular,” “intentional” and a “perfectionist” who wouldn’t pursue someone without genuine interest. Earle, an alum of “Dancing With the Stars,” has been building her brand as a lifestyle and beauty influencer.
Earle’s father, Thomas “TJ” Earle, and stepmother, Ashley Dupré, alluded to the pairing in a cheeky TikTok video, with TJ joking about buying a blazer to emulate Brady’s style, prompting laughter and comments calling the remark “ironic.”
Brady finalized his divorce from supermodel Gisele Bündchen in October 2022, sharing two children with her. Earle’s split from Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios was confirmed in December 2025. Representatives for Brady and Earle did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Neither has publicly addressed the relationship.
