Braxton Berrios Previously Dated Sophia Culpo

Braxton was in a relationship with Sophia Culpo, sister of Miss Universe 2012 Olivia Culpo, from late 2020 to early 2023. Sophia, 26, confirmed her split from Braxton in March, after which rumors began floating around that Braxton cheated on Sophia with Alix, which the athlete denied on his Instagram Story in June 2023.

“I was in a relationship for two years,” Braxton wrote on social media at the time. “It was a good relationship; it was a healthy one and towards the end of it we had conversations along the lines of ‘we weren’t working out.’ So, when we split back in January, that’s why. It had nothing to do with anything else. It had nothing to do with anybody else, for that matter. And we just didn’t work out, and that’s OK.”

One day later, Sophia took to TikTok to share a different story about the breakup than Braxton did and claimed she ended things because he cheated on her.

“The real timeline. We broke up after the Drake concert Super Bowl weekend [in February] where he was seen making out with another girl,” Sophia claimed in a TikTok Story that she later deleted. “Not bitter, in fact I know this situation has been one of my biggest blessings. I wish everyone in this situation all the best, including myself which is why I’m her to share the truth so I can officially be done with all of this. All love.”
