Alix Earle and Braxton Berrios’ lives were reportedly headed in different directions before they decided to split.
Earle “really wants to spend more time in LA, while Braxton lives in Florida,” an insider told Us Weekly Tuesday.
The pair “realized they were growing apart as a couple” as they spent less and less time together, the source added.
A source previously told Page Six that the influencer and the NFL athlete’s breakup after dating for two years was also “distance induced.”

Earle, 24, is now focused on a new chapter and is in good spirits despite the breakup, the source added.
Earle’s rep didn’t immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The “Dancing With the Stars” Season 34 competitor was photographed all smiles while partying at Art Basel in Miami on Friday night. Earle hit the town with several influencers at an event hosted by SipMARGS, wearing a sheer white mini dress with a matching garter belt and stockings.
On Monday, she shut down rumors that New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart slid into her DMs after her split from 30-year-old Berrios, who is a wide receiver for the Houston Texans.

In the alleged message that went viral, the official Instagram account for Dart, 22, wrote, “Hey u single now?”
The screenshot had text written on top of it that read, “It hasn’t even been 12 hours,” making it seem like it was posted by Earle.
But the “Hot Mess” podcast host told her fans the post wasn’t legit.
“What is this fake photoshopped DM u guys are posting. 1. That never happened. 2. That wouldn’t be on my story,” she shared on TikTok.

Prior to Earle and Berrios’ split — which our source said was mutual — fans had speculated that the pair had called it quits since he didn’t show up to any of her “DWTS” performances.
But the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model shut down speculation at the time, insisting “he couldn’t come [because] of football.”
She ended up finishing in second place in the “DWTS” competition, losing to Robert Irwin.
Berrios and Earle were first romantically linked in May 2023 after he called it quits with ex Sophia Culpo a few months prior.
