Braxton Berrios is addressing an accusation made against him.

After Alix Earle‘s younger brother Thomas Earle II claimed the New York Giants wide receiver ignored his text during an episode of her family’s Earle Meets World reality series, Braxton clarified the situation.

Indeed, after a fan of the Netflix series, which premiered on Sept. 4, questioned if “Braxton ever [texted] Thomas back????” in a recent TikTok video, the athlete commented under the post, “All love but this was hard to see because it never happened, Thomas is my guy and to this day I’ve never not replied to him.”

In case you missed it, Alix, 25, and Braxton, 30, broke up in December 2025 after more than two years of dating. During her family’s ski trip following the split, which was chronicled in episode three of Earle Meets World, Alix’s 9-year-old brother claimed that Braxton ignored his message.

“Braxton has been ignoring my text messages,” he said as the Earle family gathered for a meal. “I said, ‘Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.’”

Alix immediately chimed in, “And he hasn’t answered you?” to which Thomas responded, “He hasn’t seen it.”
