Influencer Alix Earle is sharing candid details about her professional and personal life in her new Netflix reality series, "Earle Meets World." The show, which began streaming recently, features Earle discussing her past working relationship with Alex Cooper, her former romance with NFL player Braxton Berrios, and speculation about a connection with Tom Brady.
Earle worked under Cooper’s Unwell Network from 2023 to 2025. Their falling out became public in April 2026 when Cooper posted a video criticizing Earle's online behavior. Earle responded in the comments, and in her new series, she details her feelings about the situation. She states she felt "betrayed" by Cooper, whom she initially admired and saw as an "older sister" figure.
"I feel like she took advantage of my admiration of her," Earle said on the show, adding that she was 22 and fresh out of college when she first appeared on Cooper's podcast "Call Her Daddy" in 2023. Earle also claims Cooper encouraged her to drink before their September 2023 podcast episode and questioned her about topics she was not comfortable discussing. She alleges Cooper refused to edit out sensitive parts of the interview, saying, "No, I think it's funny." Earle described feeling "mistreated and manipulated" during her time with the Unwell Network.
Earle's father, Thomas "TJ" Earle, who also appears in the series, called Cooper a "bitch" and stated that the Unwell Network "sucked." Earle herself expressed that she was "scared" and "intimidated" by Cooper, which contributed to her not speaking out sooner.
In a text message Earle wrote to Cooper, but it is unclear if she sent it, she accused Cooper of being "manipulative and toxic" and of choosing "money over morals." Earle also claimed Cooper "threatened" her.
Family History and Health Disclosures
The series also delves into Earle's family history, including her father's affair with Ashley Dupré, a former call girl involved in the Eliot Spitzer scandal. TJ Earle and Dupré married in 2013 and share three children. Dupré stated in the show that Earle discussing her past on "Call Her Daddy" made her feel like "giving up."
Earle also revealed that she and her sister, Ashtin, tested positive for the BRCA2 gene mutation after their mother, Alisa, was diagnosed with breast cancer. The gene mutation increases susceptibility to breast and ovarian cancer. Earle expressed that knowing this information is a "privilege" but also shared her emotional reaction to the news.
Past Relationships and Romance Rumors
Earle described her ex-boyfriend, NFL player Braxton Berrios, as the "first actual real love" she has experienced. The couple dated from 2023 to 2025. Earle stated they broke up due to busy careers and a lack of intimacy. The season finale features Earle calling Berrios to inquire about the possibility of reconciliation.
Regarding rumors of a romance with Tom Brady, Earle stated in the show, "I don't know what's going on, I'm having fun," when asked about their connection. Earle and Brady first sparked rumors around New Year's Eve 2025. Sources previously told Page Six that they were having a "fling" that was "not-that-serious."
