Alix Earle<\/strong><\/a> got extremely raw as she publicly discussed her recent breakup with NFL star Braxton Berrios<\/strong> for the first time.<\/p>\n

\u201cBraxton and I are no longer together,\u201d she tearfully told fans via TikTok<\/a> on Saturday, December 13. \u201cWe have been doing long distance since, basically, June and we haven\u2019t got to see each other that often. It\u2019s just been really difficult for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earle explained that she felt \u201creally motivated\u201d to live in Los Angeles during her time on Dancing With the Stars<\/em> and has considered moving there permanently.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think that was a scary thing for me to realize because it meant us not being in the same place. A part of me also really wants to be focusing on myself right now,\u201d she acknowledged. \u201cI just feel like I can\u2019t be what Braxton needs.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tAlix Earle is addressing speculation that New York Giants rookie Jaxson Dart slid into her DMs following her split from Braxton Berrios. \u201cWhat is this fake photoshopped DM u guys are posting,\u201d Earle, 24, wrote via TikTok on Sunday, December 7. \u201c1. That never happened. 2. That wouldn\u2019t be on my story.\u201d Hours after news [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The \u201cHot Mess with Alix Earle\u201d host continued, \u201cI want him to have someone who can be there for him 24\/7 and support him. He wasn\u2019t really expecting that of me \u2026 I constantly felt guilty.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earle shared that separating from the Houston Texans wide receiver, 30, was especially \u201cdifficult\u201d because she considers him to be her \u201cbest friend.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt just kinda feels like we\u2019re on two different paths right now and it sucks,\u201d she admitted. \u201cWe\u2019re on good terms and I don\u2019t want anyone to come for him or be mean to him.\u201d<\/p>\n

The podcaster confessed to \u201cquestioning\u201d herself so much that she wasn\u2019t sure \u201chow [she] feel[s] even makes sense.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI think I ultimately just wanted to go with trusting my feelings,\u201d she said. \u201cThis has just been really hard. \u2026 It\u2019s not drama. It\u2019s not because he did anything wrong or I did anything wrong. It just didn\u2019t really feel like it was working out, in the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earle denied that the breakup had anything to do with Berrios missing her Dancing With the Stars<\/em> performances due to his NFL schedule.<\/p>\n

Us Weekly<\/em> exclusively reported<\/a> on December 6 that the former couple had called it quits after two years together.<\/p>\n

\u201c[A] majority of their relationship was long-distance and it was hard for them to navigate,\u201d an insider told Us<\/em>. \u201cThey mutually agreed on the split.\u201d<\/p>\n

Us<\/em> subsequently learned<\/a> that \u201cdistance was a huge factor\u201d in why the relationship fell apart over the last few months.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe really wants to spend more time in LA, while Braxton lives in Florida,\u201d a source said, noting that \u201cthey realized they were growing apart as a couple.\u201d<\/p>\n

Berrios tried to make light of the breakup on Thursday, December 11, by sharing a new photo of himself via Instagram<\/a>, along with the caption: \u201cWhat did I miss?\u201d<\/p>\n

When someone replied that he\u2019d missed \u201cevery single performance of Alix\u2019s\u201d on Dancing With the Star<\/em>s, Berrios explained: \u201cI would\u2019ve been at every one if I could\u2019ve, sadly I can\u2019t travel like that in season.\u201d<\/p>\n
