Alix Earle’s strained relationship with Call Her Daddy host Alex Cooper remains the dominant factor keeping the market-implied odds for a 2026 appearance heavily against a booking. Their public feud escalated sharply in 2025 when Cooper’s Unwell Network dropped Earle’s Hot Mess podcast, then reignited in April 2026 with Cooper directly calling out passive-aggressive social posts. Earle further detailed the rift on her September 2026 Netflix reality series Earle Meets World, alleging threats and airing scathing exchanges that show no signs of reconciliation. With Earle focused on her new show, skincare line, and SI Swimsuit commitments through the fall, traders see little momentum or incentive for a quick guest spot before year-end.
