Bill Belichick, 72, Steps Out On Red Carpet With 24-Year-Old Girlfriend, Jordan Hudson, For The First Time

The former coach of the New England Patriots Bill Belichick, 72, stepped out onto the red carpet with his new 24-year-old girlfriend Jordan Hudson.

Hudson wore a black, off-the-shoulder dress with a silver lining and high slit, while Belichick opted for a simple tuxedo.

The couple has been dating for several months, confirmed through Hudson’s Instagram, but the public debut of their relationship took place on Dec. 5 at the Museum of Natural History’s 2024 Museum Gala in New York City.

BILL BELICHICK’S NEW GIRLFRIEND JORDAN HUDSON

Hudson studied at Bridgewater State University from 2019 to 2022 and graduated with a B.A. in philosophy. During this time she was a cheerleader and in 2021 she became an NCA Collegiate Champion. Following her graduation, Hudson went on to cheer for the East Celebrity Elite cheer squad and has frequently expressed her love for the sport. In March Hudson was first runner up in the 2024 Miss Maine USA pageant.

Many have commented on the uncomfortably significant 48-year age gap between Belichick and Hudson, as history dictates that such relationships between older men and younger women are prone to predatory dynamics. While actors like Leonardo DiCaprio have frequently dated much younger women, sports figure have not been as prominent in the trend.

In September 2023 it was reported that Belichick and his then-partner Linda Holliday, 61, separated after 16 years together. Belichick was previously married to Debby Clarke between the years of 1977 to 2006, during which time they had three children:  Amanda, Stephen and Brian.

All three of Belichick’s children have become coaches professionally: Amanda for lacrosse at Holy Cross Athletics, Stephen as a defensive coordinator for the University of Washington, and Brian as the New England Patriot’s safety coach.

Belichick has made a few appearances on Hudson’s Instagram in the last few months. In September, she shared a photo of Belichick petting a goat. In October, they did a couple’s Halloween costume photo with Hudson playing a mermaid.
