Alix Earle claims ‘bully’ Alex Cooper ‘threatened’ her before feud went public

GRWM for battle.

Alix Earle has finally broken her silence on her feud with Alex Cooper, sharing that she “stayed quiet for so long” because she was “scared” of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast host.

“Everyone tells me not to fight with [Cooper] because they always win and they always come out on top,” Alix, 25, says in her new Netflix series, “Earle Meets World.”

“[Cooper] even said to me, ‘You don’t want to go to war with me.’”

Cooper, 32, signed Alix’s “Hot Mess” podcast to her Unwell Network in 2023.

But it was announced in March 2025 that “Hot Mess” had been dropped by the production company in a move Alix purportedly discovered “through the media.”

“I didn’t realize things were going wrong because I was obsessed with her,” Alix explains in the show, while reflecting on her friendship with Cooper. “I was like, ‘This is my idol. I’m so happy to work for her,’ and then constantly felt taken advantage of and used and mistreated and manipulated.”

Alix accuses Cooper of putting her in an “uncomfortable” position by asking sexually charged questions during her “Call Her Daddy” interview three years ago.

“We’re filming her podcast, and she’s having us drink before and asking me really sexual questions I wasn’t comfortable with, but I’m also answering because I’m drunk,” Alix recalls.

Alix says she asked Cooper to omit part of the interview afterward, though Cooper allegedly refused.

Aside from feeling “betrayed” on a personal level, Alix says her relationship with Cooper had also soured from the business end of things.

In fact, Alix’s dad, TJ Earle — who also acts as her manager — claims the network came in “way below” what they initially promised.

According to TJ, Alix was doing everything by herself for her podcast, from setting up lighting and camera equipment to producing.

When she was eventually told to hire her own help — after feeling “pressured” into renewing her contract for a second year — Alix claims the Unwell team stopped inviting her to events, didn’t talk to her and began skipping their meetings.

The drama reached its boiling point in April after Cooper posted a video blasting Alix for “passive-aggressive re-posts and likes” about her on social media, confirming public speculation of a feud.

As seen in the Netflix series, the entire Earle family quickly rallies around Alix as she navigates her response to Cooper’s video.

“I do think Alex Cooper’s coming off a little desperate right now,” TJ says in his confessional, while Alix’s mom, Alisa Earle, describes the podcaster as a “bully.”

Alix, for her part, slams Cooper as “sick and twisted” in a scathing text message she planned to send to her former boss. It’s unclear whether or not Alix actually sent the message.

“You took advantage of me at a young age in a new industry I knew nothing about,” Alix reads from her text to Cooper. “You are full of false promises, and Unwell is a continuation of that.”

Alix concludes her message with a firm vow to “never” do business with someone like Cooper again.

A rep for Cooper did not return Page Six’s request for comment.

“Earlie Meets World” is currently streaming on Netflix.
