Who is Bill Belichick's girlfriend? Meet 23-year-old cheerleader Jordan Hudson linked to NFL coaching legend

Bill Belichick is known for his six Super Bowl wins as the head coach of the New England Patriots and is awaiting his enshrinement into the NFL Hall of Fame.

His life away from the football field has been in the public eye, as he has had spots on ESPN's College GameDay and the Pat McAfee Show already, and he's slated for a slew of new media appearances this season.

Belichick famously kept to himself as the Patriots' head coach, so it was headline news that he finally broke down and joined Instagram . While the newest addition to social media was exciting in and of itself, it was also the first time that Belichick had a public interaction with his new girlfriend.

Speculations had long been swirling, but Belichick is officially dating Jordan Hudson. Here's more to know about the 23-year-old former cheerleader.

Who is Bill Belichick's girlfriend Jordan Hudson?

Belichick ended his relationship with his longtime girlfriend, Linda Holliday, in 2023 after being together for 16 years. Holliday is 61, which contributed to the shock that the 72-year-old Belichick started dating Hudson, who is nearly 50 years younger than he is.

Hudson was a cheerleader while at Bridgewater State University and won a Division III national championship with them in 2021.

She finished her Bachelor's degree in Philosophy in May 2022 and graduated from the New England Hair Academy in 2019. She's participated in a handful of beauty pageants, including a second-place finish in the 2024 Miss Maine USA pageant.

According to her LinkedIn , Hudson has been the Executive Director of Trouble Cup Enterprises for over three years.
