Looks wise, they are on a pretty similar level. Although he might be better looking if we had a picture of her natural face. Seems they both have money. No idea who either are. Why is this breakup post worthy? A random breakup of a influencer and her injured 3rd string NFLer.

You basically wrote the textbook "sorry, you are old and out of touch” comment. Your parents probably said the exact same thing in the 70s or 80s about whoever was on magazine covers, "who are these people and why is their breakup newsworthy.” You not knowing them does not make them random, it just means you are not the target audience anymore. Alix Earle literally started as a college girl filming "get ready with me” makeup routines in her messy U Miami bedroom, talking about acne and boy drama, and over just a few years that blew up into millions of followers, a hit podcast, products selling out when she mentions them, second place on Dancing With the Stars, a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover, and a Victoria’s Secret campaign as one of their new it girls. That is not "some influencer,” that is a major Gen Z celebrity. She is to Gen Z what Paris Hilton and the Kardashians were to millennials. You have heard of them, right, or do we need to go all the way back to Farrah Fawcett, Debbie Harry, Madonna, Burt Reynolds for it to click. Looks wise, saying she is "average” just shows you are out of sync with what Gen Z is actually into. She basically is the current Gen Z template: the face, the styling, the body type, the whole vibe that a lot of younger girls are literally copying on social media. That does not mean everyone has to like it, but pretending it is nothing special is like calling Farrah Fawcett’s hair "whatever” in the 70s. It is the iconic look of right now, and you sounding confused by it is kind of like still arguing bush vs Brazilian as if beauty trends have not completely shifted since your heyday. |
| I have known about her for at least three years because my kid goes to Miami and she was there when he was there. She started blowing up her senior year. Her dad having money definitely has helped her, like many kids are wealthy parents, but she also works her butt off and has made really good business choices. |
Oh you need to fix your algorithm. My tiktok is mainly edits of a couple singers I like, funny/cute animal videos, funny skits related to my career, funny skits about life, and clips from TV shows. When I get the obvious ad I just scroll right past. |

Did she invent the “get ready with me” thing?
I hate it, because college girls seem to be doing 10-step beauty routines with anti-wrinkle products, which seems so unnecessary and a bit toxic. Then again, they do look better than my generation in a lot of ways - awkward teens are a thing of the past! |
She definitely didn’t start it. It’s a common format for younger influencers to just talk about whatever. The deeper intensity of care about looks is just from being seen in pictures on social media. |
| She is hugely popular with the younger set. She is very open about all of her cosmetic enhancements. Her dad married a madame/prostitute who was famous for bringing down Tiger Woods. |
The stepmom also brought down the governor of New York, Eliot Spitzer. |
Oh, wow. I remember this woman and now feel super old. |
| They look like contestants out of Bachelor Nation |
| I suspect he wanted to start 'settling down' and get engaged. He is pushing 30. She is just not at that stage of life. |
30 is old and the upper edge for children, more likely because he moved to texas and she would rather be in florida. |
Wow, did you have children at 19? Because 30 is not so not old and is below average for someone who makes millions of dollars a year. |
You clearly don’t know anything about these people. He’s probably in Texas for a few more months if that long. And she is definitely moving out of Miami and on to bigger and better things. |
