Alix Earle Confesses to 5 AM Drunk Texting Her Ex
Alix Earle, the 25-year-old social media star and recent Dancing with the Stars participant, spoke openly on The Drew Barrymore Show on April 3. She described a late-night lapse in judgement after a night out.
Late-night message
Earle said she sent a text to an ex at about 5 a.m. She called it a mistake she made while tipsy and seated on the floor.
She recalled having a few drinks and asking her sister to check the spelling before sending. Earle also mentioned waiting for mac and cheese to heat in the microwave during the exchange.
Which ex was involved
The influencer did not name the recipient during the interview. She has, however, publicly dated NFL wide receiver Braxton Berrios in the past.
The pair were together for two years. Berrios now plays for the Houston Texans.
Run-in at a music festival
In February, Earle discussed seeing Berrios after their split at the Palm Tree Music Festival in Aspen, Colorado. She said the encounter felt emotionally difficult and disorienting.
She described being in the same venue without greeting him. Earle said it was hard to watch someone who was once a close friend become almost a stranger.
Public life and reactions
Earle has navigated the breakup in public. Her candid accounts highlight the pressures of dating under the spotlight.
Her admission of a 5 a.m. drunk text drew attention on social platforms. Fans and observers noted the contrast between private moments and public persona.
