The latest Instagram post from influencer Alix Earle has been inundated with comments and questions about American football legend Tom Brady, following the circulation of videos showing the pair in a flirtatious encounter on New Year's Eve.
Viral Footage Sparks Romance Rumours
The newly single 25-year-old social media personality was seen getting close to the 48-year-old NFL icon at a yacht party in St. Barths this week. Footage obtained by TMZ and shared widely online shows Earle dancing with the seven-time Super Bowl champion before leaning in to whisper in his ear while caressing his back.
Additional clips from the evening capture further intimate moments, including Brady placing his hand around Earle's lower waist as they danced and Earle glancing over her shoulder to look him up and down. Neither party has publicly commented on the nature of their interaction or the resulting viral videos.
Social Media Reacts to the Speculation
Earle's subsequent Instagram posts have been bombarded by followers and Brady fans eager for details. The comment sections filled rapidly with GIFs of the quarterback, direct questions about a potential romance, and playful jokes.
Reactions ranged from "Come on Alix, Tom Brady??" to "New year new NFL MAN???" and "We need all the Tea on Tom." This online frenzy was compounded by both figures sharing cryptic social media posts in the aftermath of the party.
Brady, who finalised his divorce from supermodel Gisele Bündchen in 2022, posted a philosophical quote about inner beauty to his Instagram story as the footage emerged. He later shared a picture of his pool in Florida with the caption "Home Sweet Home," soundtracked by a melancholic Zach Bryan song.
Insider Details and Recent Split
According to a source quoted by Page Six, the connection between Earle and Brady extended beyond the dance floor. The insider claimed the pair broke away from the main group at the yacht party to talk privately in a cabin for much of the night.
The rumours arrive shortly after Earle confirmed her split from NFL star Braxton Berrios, a wide receiver for the Houston Texans, in mid-December. In an emotional video, she described Berrios as her "best friend" and cited the strains of a long-distance relationship as the reason for their parting.
Earle had hinted at a positive evening ahead in a 'Get Ready With Me' TikTok video posted hours before the New Year's Eve party, stating, "I’m foreseeing really good vibes for tonight." The nature of her connection with Tom Brady, however, remains officially unconfirmed and the subject of intense online speculation.
