AceShowbiz - Bill Belichick, the famed 72-year-old former New England Patriots coach, has found himself at the center of media buzz over a new romance with 23-year-old Jordon Hudson. The pair, whose relationship has been described as a "May-December romance," first met on a flight in 2021, where Belichick signed Hudson's chemistry homework. Hudson, who moved into Belichick's Hingham, Massachusetts home earlier this year, is 49 years younger. This significant age gap has sparked varied reactions across social media and NFL circles.
The relationship was a hot topic during a recent episode of the "New Heights" podcast, which is co-hosted by NFL stars Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce. "Belichick's a smooth operator, his girlfriend's…," Travis began before being interrupted by his older brother Jason, who pleaded, "Let's not go there, please. Jesus Christ."
Travis, unable to contain his laughter, couldn't resist poking fun at the couple's huge age gap by referring to Hudson as Belichick's "daughter" before being shut down by his brother. "He's killing it," Travis added, echoing the sentiments of some who admire the coach's ability to attract a much younger partner.
While Travis found the situation amusing, his brother Jason clearly wanted to avoid delving into such personal subject matter. This was echoed by other NFL figures like Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman, who discussed the relationship on Edelman's "Games With Names" podcast.
Gronkowski reminisced about Belichick's old advice to avoid three things: alcohol, a**holes, and girls. "And now he's all caught up with the girls!" Gronkowski exclaimed, cheekily adding, "We love you, coach."
The couple has been relatively private about their relationship, though they have been spotted vacationing in Nantucket and Croatia. Jordon Hudson herself has subtly defended their relationship, "liking" supportive comments on Facebook that argue her status as a legal adult means others shouldn't judge.
Former Patriots quarterback Tom Brady also jested about Belichick's romance during a Netflix roast. "When everybody asked me which ring is my favorite, I used to say 'the next one,' " Brady said. "But now that I'm retired, my favorite ring is the camera that caught Coach Belichick slinking out of that poor girl's house at 6 AM a few months ago. Hey, you still got it. Respect, baby."
While opinions vary, it's clear that Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson's relationship is a hot topic that continues to captivate the public and NFL insiders alike.
