Tom Brady shared reflections on beauty via his Instagram Story amid speculation about a new romance with influencer Alix Earle. On Thursday, he posted a quote stating, “People are not beautiful for how they look or speak. They’re beautiful for how they love, care and treat others,” accompanied by red heart emojis. In a subsequent slide, the retired NFL player described himself as “a winner” — defined as “a loser who tried one more time.”
These posts followed reports that Brady, 48, and Earle, 25, were seen together at a New Year’s Eve yacht party in St. Barts. A source revealed they “met and broke off from the larger group, talking for a lot of the night.” Video footage showed Earle rubbing Brady’s back during a conversation, while social media accounts captured them dancing at a club. Representatives for both have not commented on the rumors.
Earle recently ended a two-year relationship with NFL player Braxton Berrios in December 2025, citing distance and diverging paths. Meanwhile, Brady finalized his divorce from supermodel Gisele Bündchen in 2022. Bündchen reportedly remarried jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente in November 2025. Brady was briefly linked to model Irina Shayk after his split, though their connection reportedly “fizzled out” quickly.
