Alix Earle and Tom Brady got along swimmingly during their recent St. Bart’s outing.
“Alix and Tom were together the entire night on New Year’s Eve partying at a party hosted by Palm Tree Crew in St. Barts,” an insider told Us Weekly on Friday.
“They met through mutual friends who were also in St. Barths and had an instant connection. There was a lot of chemistry between them.”
However, while the source claimed the influencer, 25, was “really into hanging out with” the former NFL star, 48, Earle allegedly isn’t looking for “anything serious” after her split from Houston Texans player Braxton Berrios.
“It’s nothing serious between her and Tom, but they were together laughing, dancing and partying, enjoying themselves,” the source shared.
According to the insider, Earle jetted off to the celebrity hotspot island for a “needed” post-breakup getaway, as she is now “in a phase of saying yes to fun experiences and not overthinking anything.”
“She’s just having fun right now and letting loose,” the insider added. “She has been in great spirits while on vacation and seems happy and ready to have fun again.”
The source told Us Weekly that Brady was “hesitant” about being seen with Earle in public, “but didn’t want to leave her side.”
Reps for Earle and Brady did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The Sports Illustrated swimsuit model was linked to the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback earlier this week after a source exclusively told Page Six that the pair were looking cozy “at a yacht party” in St. Barts over the holidays.
While they originally partied with their individual groups, at one point, the two stars were said to have “broke[n] off from the larger group, talking for a lot of the night” inside a private cabin.
A video of Earle and Brady looking “super close” was also published by TMZ shortly after.
Following the scene, the seven-time Super Bowl champ shared a cryptic message about “beautiful” people to his Instagram Stories.
“People are not beautiful for how they look or speak,” the quote read. “They’re beautiful for how they love, care and treat others.”
