Alix Earle Says She Prefers Older Partners and Sometimes 'Overcorrects'

She frames older partners as offering maturity, experience, care.

Overview

  • This week Earle used an episode of her YouTube series Get Real with Me to say dating men her own age ‘didn’t work’ for her and that she now leans toward older partners.
  • On the show she said a recent date with a man a year older felt like she was ‘mothering’ and that she wants someone who can ‘take care’ of her.
  • Earle also admitted she sometimes goes too far toward much older men, joking that she ends up thinking ‘Grandpa!’ when the age gap is extreme.
  • Her comments come after a December split from Braxton Berrios and follow periodic public interactions with him and unconfirmed media links to Tom Brady based on shared sightings.
  • By discussing her preferences on camera and on social platforms Earle is shaping the public narrative of her dating life and keeping followers engaged while leaving reports of specific romances unconfirmed.
