Bill Belichick – Jordon Hudson story started in February 2021 during an airplane flight. At that time, Hudson was a college student. In their first meeting, Bill signed Hudson’s logic textbook and also wrote down the 6 Super Bowl titles he had won as the head coach of the New England Patriots.

At that time, Belichick was in a relationship with Linda Holliday, which PEOPLE reported had ended after 16 years in September 2023. Belichick’s 16-year relationship with Holliday reportedly ended in September 2023. Hudson and Belichick were first spotted together in January 2023, and outlets differ on when they began dating. Their romance became public in June 2024.
In late 2025, the two quietly broke up without any public announcement. The reason hasn’t been reported. On Friday, TMZ Sports and PEOPLE magazine confirmed that Belichick and Hudson had split and that she is now dating someone else.
“Sources close to Jordon, with direct knowledge, tell TMZ … the legendary football coach, now for the University of North Carolina, and his much younger girlfriend quietly ended their romance ‘late last year’… Jordon has started seeing other people, but we don’t know what her relationship status is right now,” per TMZ.
The report added that despite the breakup, they remain close friends and their business partnership continues. Hudson’s company, Trouble Cup Enterprises, helps Belichick with trademarks and scheduling. That’s why even after the breakup, they were seen together at the 2026 Kentucky Derby and UNC football games.
Jordon Hudson Was Very Protective of Bill Belichick
There was almost a 50-year age gap between the two, which led the media to pay close attention to them and drew considerable criticism. Jordon was very protective of her partner and had asked UNC staff to filter out and block negative comments harassing Belichick.
When Belichick was asked about this criticism, he made it clear that he never worries about what others think; he just does what is right for him.
In April 2025, during a CBS Sunday Morning interview, when a question about their relationship came up, Jordon spoke off-camera and had the question stopped. After that, rumors started circulating in the media that Jordon was working at UNC Football, serving as a general manager or handling coaching duties.
In an interview with The Wall Street Journal in September, Belichick called the general-manager idea ‘ridiculous’ and the claim that she was copied on every email ‘a flat-out lie,’ saying she helps with his schedule, ‘not North Carolina stuff’. In April 2025, Belichick had accused CBS of selectively editing its interview.
Belichick is one of the most successful coaches in football history, with 8 Super Bowl rings. He is now serving as the head coach of the UNC Tar Heels and is focused on improving his team’s record (4-3) in the 2026 season.
