Bill Belichick, 72, ‘is dating a 24-YEAR-OLD former cheerleader’
Former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick is dating an ex-cheerleader almost 50 years his junior, according to a bombshell new report.
Belichick, 72, first hit it off with 24-year-old Jordon Hudson on a flight from the Boston-area to Florida back in 2021, claims TMZ Sports.
The pair are said to have bonded over a philosophy project that Hudson – a student-athlete as well as an entrepreneur – had been working on at the time.
They reportedly exchanged contact information after landing and kept in contact over the next few months while discussing the former Bridgewater State University student’s school work and cheerleading routines.
And after calling off his longtime romance with TV host Linda Holliday, Belichick’s relationship with Hudson quickly began to heat up.

It is believed the two have been romantic for some time and are now considered an ‘item’ following his split from Holliday.
They initially kept things lowkey and were only briefly spotted on rare occasions, but TMZ claims Hudson secretly visited Gillette Stadium to support her man during the 2022 and 2023 seasons with the Patriots.
Their relationship has become more public of late, with Belichick spotted rooting for her at a cheerleading competition in Maryland earlier this year.
People at the competition told TMZ that he kept to himself and sat in the back row after watching at least one of the team’s routines before exiting the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center.
Belichick has also been seen with Hudson – an executive director for special members club Trouble Club Enterprises – on a work trip to Croatia, while she even attended Tom Brady’s Patriots Hall of Fame induction ceremony with him this week.
The couple’s romance is so well known in their inner circles that New England icon Rob Gronkowski even cracked a joke about it during the Netflix’s Brady Roast last month.
Hudson is even understood to have been helping Belichick with his business endeavors of late.
Page Six broke the news that the all-time great NFL coach – who called time on his legendary Patriots tenure earlier this year – had broken up with Holliday last September after a drawn-out, back-and-forth breakup for nearly a year.’
After bidding an emotional goodbye to the Patriots, Belichick failed to land another NFL job ahead of the 2024-25 season.
He is instead set to become a regular fixture on ESPN’s Monday Night Football with Peyton and Eli Manning, before potentially returning to coaching when a vacancy opens up.
