Joe Burrow not just attended the Oscars this year, but also stirred up quite a few rumors about his dating life at the event. The plot thickened when he was spotted partying alongside Tom Brady’s rumored girlfriend, Alix Earle, and two other women.

The Bengals quarterback was last known to be dating model Olivia Ponton. However, rumors suggest that they are no longer together. It is to be noted that Burrow and Ponton never confirmed their relationship or even addressed the breakup rumors.
Interestingly, Burrow was recently linked to Jessica Alba after being seen with her in Las Vegas. Oscars has added other variables into the picture now, not just for Joe, but also Brady.
Burrow left the Oscars to party with Earle, influencer Stassie Karanikolaou, and musician Tate McRae. The Bengals star hanging out with Earle led some to believe that Brady and the TikTok star are no longer together.
Earle has been spotted with Brady multiple times since their first appearance together at a New Year’s Eve party. But recently, the former NFL quarterback was seen talking and leaving with Scooter Braun’s ex-wife, Yael Cohen, at a party hosted by Tony Gonzalez.
This all came after brief rumors that Brady and Sydney Sweeney were dating last year. They were spotted dancing together at a party hosted by Jeff Bezos.
However, the rumors have since fizzled out, and Sweeney has now reportedly moved on to dating Scooter Braun. Yes, it is a dizzyingly complex circle of connections that people are still trying to decipher. Burrow’s love life has also been a bit unclear.

The fact of the matter is that Brady and Earle don’t have a serious relationship. Sources have described them as being “casual” and having a “I’ll see you when I see you” type of dynamic.
Some have theorized that Brady wasn’t comfortable with the attention he received from being seen with Earle and has since ended the relationship. And Earle is also reportedly “unbothered” and “not worried” about the Patriots star being linked to other women, including Cohen.
At the end of the day, it’s anyone’s best guess what Brady’s relationship status is as of now. After the end of his 13-year marriage to Gisele Bundchen, with whom he has two kids, Brady seems to be keeping his options open and his relationship status fluid. He’s getting out there and testing the waters.
It probably won’t be too long before the seven-time Super Bowl champ is linked to another woman whom he’s seen with in public. That just seems to be the way these things go.
A good question to ask, though, is how long Earle will be okay with Brady seeing other women before she decides to go her own route. It already looks like she, like him, is testing the waters. That too with quarterbacks.
