Earle made sure her followers knew she wasn't trying to "bash" the mystery man before launching into a summary of the date, which seemed to have gone down in a less-than-ideal fashion.

Though she said the two spoke “briefly,” Earle acknowledged that it was “terrible” to accept that he had gone from being her “best friend to being a stranger in the corner of the room.”
After her split from Berrios, Earle was also temporarily linked with retired NFL quarterbackTom Brady, 48, after the pair were firstspotted hanging outat the same New Year's Eve party in St. Barths and thenpublicly reunitedat a party in San Francisco during Super Bowl weekend.
