Alix Earle will always be there for boyfriend Braxton Berrios.
“Absolutely heartbroken,” Braxton wrote on Instagram Oct. 21. “Due to an injury yesterday my season is over, the road ahead is measured in months and not days, but I find comfort in knowing I’ve been here before.”
The 29-year-old added that he believes despite all the setbacks, he will persevere as he’s always done: “There’s pain along the way, but what’s on the other side makes it all worth it.”
“Initially all I want to do is play victim and question everything,” he continued, “but I know God and I know he makes no mistakes. After the dust settles the choice each day is going to be pretty straightforward—have this be a part of my story or have it be the end of my story.”
The NFL star ended on a quote from Kobe Bryant, “‘If you see me in a fight with a bear, pray for the bear.'”
And of course, girlfriend Alix was there to share her support for Braxton, writing “I love you” in the comments, alongside a red heart.
The TikToker continued her encouragement in her Instagram Stories, sharing Braxton’s post and adding, “It’s crazy how things can change in a matter of seconds … especially seeing how much hard work you put into the game not only physically but mentally.”
“Day in and day out you inspire me and I have no doubt that you will be back and better in no time,” the 23-year-old wrote. “Proud to be by your side and cheer you on. I love you.”
And the support between Alix and Braxton—who began dating in 2023—is something that truly goes both ways in their relationship.
“I think having him by my side has been really helpful,” Alex told E! News in February. “He’s always really supportive of me and if I ever get in my head or overthink anything, he’s there to keep me grounded and bring positive energy. So I’m grateful.”
And Braxton has also enjoyed guest starring in several of Alix’s TikToks.
“It’s my way to support her,” he explained to E!. “This is what she does, and honestly, it’s been a new world for me, but it’s been a lot of fun.”
