Alix Earle Details Alex Cooper Feud in Series

Alix Earle has detailed the reasons behind her falling out with Alex Cooper in her new Netflix reality series, "Earle Meets World," which premiered on September 4, 2026. Earle, who joined Cooper's Unwell Network in 2023 with her "Hot Mess" podcast, claims she felt betrayed, manipulated, and taken advantage of during their business partnership. In the series finale, Earle offered her most extensive account of the rift, stating she remained silent for months because she was intimidated by Cooper. She described feeling pressured to renew her contract with the Unwell Network, despite not receiving the expected production support. Earle's father and manager, Thomas TJ Earle, alleged that his daughter was provided with minimal resources, such as a camera, and was expected to produce her show independently, unlike other creators on the network who had dedicated production teams. Communication with the network reportedly deteriorated, with Earle stating she was excluded from events and meetings. She learned her "Hot Mess" podcast was no longer part of Unwell through media reports in February 2025. The dispute also touches upon Earle's 2023 appearance on Cooper's "Call Her Daddy" podcast.
