- Braxton has shared his first social media post since reports of their split have surfaced, and fans think he might be throwing shade at Alix.
Alix Earle and Braxton Berrios have reportedly broken up after two years of dating, and the former flames are slowly coming forward with some insight into their split.
The NFL wide receiver shared his first post since the split on December 11, writing, “What did I miss?” alongside several ’fit check photos of him arriving at Houston Texans games.
His caption sparked some side-eyes from fans, who swiftly came to his ex’s defense in his comments section.
“You missed the fox trot, Argentine tango, quickstep, paso doble, samba, freestyle,” someone wrote, referencing his absence from the crowd while Alix competed (and came in as runner-up!) on the most recent season of Dancing With the Stars.
Most of the comments mentioned how he had missed her dances on the show, and Braxton took a moment to clarify his real reason behind his absence. “I would’ve loved to be. Sadly I wasn’t able to travel like that in-season,” he replied.
Others claimed his caption was “rage bait” and questioned why he’d use it in the first place. “I fear this is giving ‘I’m single’ thirst trap,” someone wrote, while someone else asked the athlete, “Is this shady Braxton I hope not.”
He then denied that he was throwing any shade at Alix, commenting, “was absolutely not supposed to be.”
Someone else even pointed out that the athlete’s caption was likely a direct reference to something unrelated to his reported breakup with the TikTok star. “People don’t get your caption referring to the Drake song,” they wrote, mentioning the rapper’s track of the same name.
It’s important to note that Braxton’s photo dump came after Alix got candid about her feelings post-breakup in a TikTok video posted on December 10.
“Is my frontal lobe developing bc I’m about to turn 25 and usually I stress abt having the biggest party but all I want to do is workout, meditate, play card games, and have good convos w the ppl closest to me,” she wrote in the video, which she also captioned, “Either I’m maturing or rlly going thru it .. maybe both.”
