Tom Brady seemingly sent a subtle message after his outing with Alix Earle.
Brady, 48, took to Instagram Story on Thursday, January 1, to share a quote, which read, “People are not beautiful for how they look or speak. They’re beautiful for how they love, care and treat others.”
The cryptic social media post came one day after Brady and Earle, 25, were seen together at a night club in St. Barts for New Year’s Eve. In a video obtained by TMZ, the pair were caught getting cozy as Earle whispered into Brady’s ear.
Earle rang in the new year following her split from Braxton Berrios. Us Weekly reported in December that the pair called it quits after two years of dating.
“[The] majority of their relationship was long-distance and it was hard for them to navigate,” an insider exclusively told Us at the time. “They mutually agreed on the split.”
The influencer broke her silence on the split in an Instagram video, telling her followers,, “Braxton and I are no longer together. We have been doing long distance since, basically, June and we haven’t got to see each other that often. It’s just been really difficult for me.”

Earle noted that being in Los Angeles to compete on Dancing With the Stars “really motivated” her, which caused her to consider moving. (Berrios, 30, did not attend any of the DWTS live shows due to his football schedule.)
“I think that was a scary thing for me to realize because it meant us not being in the same place,” she continued. “A part of me also really wants to be focusing on myself right now. I just feel like I can’t be what Braxton needs. I want him to have someone who can be there for him 24/7 and support him. He wasn’t really expecting that of me … I constantly felt guilty.”
Earle realized she and Berrios were on “two different paths.”
“We’re on good terms and I don’t want anyone to come for him or be mean to him,” she concluded. “I think I ultimately just wanted to go with trusting my feelings. This has just been really hard. … It’s not drama. It’s not because he did anything wrong or I did anything wrong. It just didn’t really feel like it was working out, in the moment.”
Brady, meanwhile, was linked to Irina Shayk after his divorce from Gisele Bündchen. The former spouses, who share son Benjamin, 16, and daughter Vivian, 13, announced their split in 2022.
“We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together. We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the center of our world in every way. We will continue to work together as parents to always ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve,” Brady, who also shares son Jack, 18, with ex Bridget Moynahan, wrote via Instagram at the time.
Bündchen, 45, noted at the time that she was looking forward to coparenting with Brady, writing, “The decision to end a marriage is never easy but we have grown apart and while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always.”
The model moved on with husband Joaquim Valente, welcoming their first baby together last year.
