Who is Bill Belichick’s girlfriend? All about Jordon Hudson

After decades of maintaining an intensely private public image, former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick is now offering fans a rare look into his life off the field. Since parting ways with the Patriots after the 2023 NFL season, Belichick, 73, has stepped into a more open chapter—appearing on Netflix roasts, promoting a new book, and drawing attention for his personal relationships.

Much of that attention has recently turned to his relationship with 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson. The couple made headlines again after a tense exchange during a “CBS Mornings” interview aired on April 27. When host Tony Dokoupil asked about how the two met, Hudson quickly interrupted and said, “We’re not talking about this,” prompting a surge of media curiosity.

According to both Hudson’s social media and a statement reported by The New York Times, the two met during a flight in February 2021. Belichick even signed her copy of Deductive Logic by Warren Goldfarb with a note that read, “Thanks for giving me a course on logic! Safe travels!”

Belichick, who split from longtime partner Linda Holliday in 2023, began dating Hudson sometime after that. Originally from Hancock, Maine, Hudson is a former cheerleader at Bridgewater State University, where she earned a philosophy degree. She is now preparing for the upcoming Miss Maine competition and has previously completed a professional cosmetology license while still in high school.

Though Belichick typically avoids social media, Hudson has posted several photos of the couple, including one for his April 16 birthday, calling him her “twin flame.” A follow-up post featured an email from Belichick, seemingly in response to media scrutiny: “I don’t think this is fantastic, but it probably will hype the book,” he wrote, adding, “This is about what I expected from the media.”

When asked about public opinion on his relationship, Belichick kept it simple: “I’ve never been too worried about what everybody else thinks.”

Belichick was previously married to Debby Clarke from 1977 to 2006, with whom he shares three children.
