Tom Brady’s Inner Circle Concerned Alix Earle Is ‘Way Too Thirsty’ For Attention After Flirty Outing

Retired football hero Tom Brady seemingly scored a touchdown to kick off the new year when he was caught on camera huddling up with a social media star half his age.

But sources say the eye-catching influencer may be using the aging athlete to raise her profile and Brady’s suspicious of her game plan.

The internet went crazy when a mystery video emerged of Hot Mess Instagram host Alix Earle, 25, draped like a defensive lineman over the 48-year-old seven-time Super Bowl winner at a St. Barth’s holiday bash.

The social media influencer and 2023 University of Miami graduate raised eyebrows by caressing the retired quarterback’s back, arm and bicep.

“Everyone in his circle is buzzing about how Alix is way too thirsty,” an insider said to National Enquirer columnist Rob Shuter.

As Enquirer readers know, Touchdown Tommy has been playing the field since his supermodel ex, Gisele Bündchen, sacked their marriage after 13 years and last year announced the birth of a baby with her judo sensei sweetheart — now hubby — Joaquim Valente.

Gisele also shares two kids with Brady — who is nearly as old as Alix’s 50-year-old dad.

Alix came to fame while still a coed when TikTok videos of her getting ready for college parties and football games went viral in 2022. She gained additional fame last fall when she finished second to the late Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin’s son, Robert, on the most recent season of Dancing With the Stars.

She also recently announced her romantic eligibility when she dumped 30-year-old Houston Texans receiver Braxton Berrios after two high-profile years together.

Neither Alix nor Tom has confirmed a romance yet, but sources say Tom is still setting up his defensive scheme to protect himself from being intercepted by a star-crazy kid looking to score points with the public.

“Tom’s team is already quietly making it clear: He’s not ready to be anyone’s social media story,” a source said to Shuter.
