Tom Brady and Alix Earle have been sparking dating rumours for the past couple of months, and a recent viral video of the two dancing may have just reignited the speculations. Since both remain single, observers couldn't help but wonder whether they are dating.

Following his divorce from Gisele Bündchen, Brady has kept a low profile, focused only on his work and his children. In fact, just this year, he said he doesn't have much time for his personal life. Earle, on the other hand, was in a relationship with Braxton Berrios for about two years before reports revealed they had broken up before the New Year. The timing for Brady and Earle to potentially be dating couldn't have happened at a better time.

Dating Rumours Reignited

This weekend, a video of Brady cosying up to Earle at a Super Bowl pre-game party went viral. The clip shows Brady grinning from ear to ear. There was no indication of direct physical contact between the two, but Brady and Earle definitely danced close to each other.

Those who saw the viral clip are convinced Brady and Earle are indeed dating. However, the fact the pair have not said anything is telling. Despite their closeness, it is possible Brady and Earle are just hanging out and getting to know each other.

Not Their First Viral Video

This isn't the first time Brady and Earle were featured in a viral video that sparked dating rumours. Last month, 'Entertainment Tonight' uploaded a clip of the two hanging out at an event. The video shows Earle sweetly caressing Brady's back whilst leaning in to whisper something in the athlete's ear.

Comparing the two clips, the one from January depicts a sweeter relationship between Brady and Earle. Even if this was the case, a source told 'ET' that everything that transpired between them was innocent.

'Alix had a blast in St Barth's and she and Tom had a lot of fun together, but it was innocent. If they happened to see each other again, they would have a natural vibe, but it's nothing serious', the source said.

Nothing Serious Between the Pair

Following Brady and Earle's New Year's Eve party hangout in St Barth's, another source told Us Weekly that the two celebrities are having a blast getting to know each other. However, things are not serious between them because Earle isn't interested in dating anyone just yet. After all, the influencer just ended a two-year relationship.

'She's just having fun right now and letting loose. She has been in great spirits while on vacation and seems happy and ready to have fun again,' the source said.

Tom Brady Referenced Gisele Bundchen's Divorce

As for Brady, the athlete seems to be doing well years after his divorce from Bündchen was finalised. Earlier this year, the former NFL star revealed how tough his final season was because it coincided with the end of his years-long marriage to the supermodel.

Even though he did not directly mention his ex-wife's name, Brady admitted he had a hard time playing in the NFL during that time due to a 'personal family issue'.
