Alix Earle has a new roommate.
The social media star revealed that she moved out of her Miami-based home and into her boyfriend Braxton Berrios’ house in the Florida city, announcing the news in a TikTok shared on Monday, April 7.
“Get ready with me in my new room,” she began in one of her famed GRWM videos. “So I moved into my boyfriend Braxton’s house, which is really, really weird for me to say.”
Earle made known that Berrios “technically” moved to Houston, having recently signed a one-year contract with the Houston Texans on March 10 this year.
The content creator cited her constant upcoming travels as the reason why she didn’t renew the lease to her apartment. “I’m barely going to be here,” she said when looking at her travel schedule.
The couple, meanwhile, won’t necessarily be living together due to the athlete’s new NFL responsibilities out of state. Earle’s move also means separating from her roommate, best friend Kristin Konefal.
“This is my first time living without a roommate,” she says when reflecting on the approximate four years she’s lived with Konefal. “So, it is scary. But also, the scary thing is that I am barely going to be here. But Kristin is still going to be nearby.”
Konefal took to the comment section to write, “I’m sad.” Earle replied, “I’m lonely.”
The new living arrangements have been in the works for quite some time now, though Earle didn’t want to make it public until the logistics, like security, were all settled and “ready to go” before sharing the news.

“I feel like this past month there was a lot of changes,” Earle shared in the clip. “Someone was saying something with some eclipse or something. And everything was changing. So, I am in Braxton’s house for now.”
Later in the clip, Earle rehashed her busy day amid her move. “We’ve been working all day, moving,” she said.
Then, the media personality gave her followers a glimpse into her hectic travel plans ahead.
“And I need to read you guys my schedule cause you guys are going to be like, ‘When are you coming back?’ ” she said. “I’m literally turning into a nomad, so just catch me everywhere but nowhere at the same time. I’ve literally taken over like three of his bedrooms.”
As for whether Earle will eventually be moving out of Miami herself in the future, given her boyfriend’s relocation to Texas for the NFL season? She confirmed her plans in the comment section.
“I was so sad, I thought you were going to move out of Miami,” one commenter wrote under the TikTok clip, to which Earle replied, “NEVER.”
Prior to signing with the Houston Texans last month, Berrios spent two seasons with the Miami Dolphins. Earle showcased her support on social media, recalling the moment she found out the big news.
“Braxton got the call today he will be playing for the Houston Texans this year!! So incredibly proud & CANT WAIT to see what this next year brings,” Earle wrote in the text that overlayed a TikTok video, complete with a red heart emoji.
