Tom Brady was spotted enjoying a luxury yacht outing in St. Barts alongside Leonardo DiCaprio and supermodel Vittoria Ceretti, adding fresh intrigue to the former NFL star’s headline-grabbing New Year’s getaway in the Caribbean. The sighting comes just days after reports surfaced linking Brady to social media influencer Alix Earle, following their appearance together at a New Year’s Eve yacht party.
Multiple outlets noted visible chemistry between the two, though sources close to the situation emphasize that nothing has been officially defined. Together, the moments have only fueled speculation, turning Brady’s holiday escape into one of the most talked-about celebrity stories of the season.
Tom Brady Spotted On St. Barts Yacht After Buzz-Worthy New Year’s Eve Party
Tom Brady was photographed on Thursday chatting with Leonardo DiCaprio aboard a luxury yacht in St. Barts, according to images obtained by Page Six. The seven-time Super Bowl champion kept it laid-back in a light green T-shirt, dark shorts, sunglasses, and a white snapback worn backward as he relaxed on deck.
DiCaprio was joined by his 27-year-old girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti. The Oscar-winning actor matched the casual vibe in a white T-shirt and baseball cap, while Ceretti was also seen enjoying the outing. In one candid moment, photographers captured Ceretti resting her head on DiCaprio’s shoulder.
The yacht sighting came just a day after Page Six reported that Brady appeared “very close” to social media influencer Alix Earle during a New Year’s Eve yacht party in St. Barts. Although they arrived separately with their own groups, a source said the two spent much of the evening talking together.
TMZ later shared video from the party showing Earle leaning in to whisper in Brady’s ear while placing a hand on his back. An additional source told Us Weekly that the pair shared an instant connection after being introduced by mutual friends vacationing on the island.

“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. Barts and had an instant connection. There was a lot of chemistry between them.”
Despite the growing buzz, sources caution that the situation remains casual for now. One insider noted that Earle is not rushing into anything following her recent split from NFL wide receiver Braxton Berrios, suggesting the two are simply enjoying each other’s company without placing any labels on the connection.

In an Instagram post shared Saturday, the 25-year-old influencer and Dancing with the Stars alum reflected on her Caribbean getaway with a photo carousel capturing highlights from the trip. “Rumor has it we’re still dancing,” Earle wrote in the caption.
She added, “New friends, new memories, and new beginnings to start off the new year 🙂 words can’t describe how amazing this trip was, so grateful to @bgarlinghouse & @taragarlinghouse for hosting us & @managermyles for throwing the best nye party EVER!!!”
The images showed Earle ringing in the New Year in St. Barts alongside friends and fellow celebrities, including Nina Dobrev, Keleigh Teller, Miles Teller, Glen Powell, and Michelle Randolph.
The post arrived amid growing speculation linking Earle to Tom Brady following a New Year’s Eve yacht party on the island. According to a source who spoke with Page Six, the two spent a significant portion of the night together after arriving separately with their own groups.
“They were at a yacht party and met, and broke off from the larger group, talking for a lot of the night,” the insider said. The reported interaction came just weeks after Earle confirmed her breakup with Houston Texans wide receiver Braxton Berrios, whom she dated for two years.
She addressed the split in an emotional social media video last month, saying, “This has just been really hard. … It’s not drama. It’s not because he did anything wrong or I did anything wrong. It just didn’t really feel like it was working out, in the moment.”
During the fall, Earle spent much of her time in Los Angeles filming Dancing with the Stars, while Berrios remained based in Houston throughout the NFL season.
