Bill Belichick's rumored relationship with Jordon Hudson, 24, draws reaction from pageant world: report
'Wanting the limelight is one thing but dating someone in his 70s is another,' a source told the New York Post
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The rumored relationship between former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson, a 24-year-old former cheerleader and beauty pageant contestant, has reportedly become a hot topic in Hudson’s former circles.
Reports last week identified Belichick’s new fling as Hudson, a Massachuestts native. The two apparently met on a commercial flight from Boston to Florida in 2021 and have been linked ever since his breakup with Linda Holliday in 2022.

The 72-year-old NFL coach and Hudson have since been spotted together, and she was also reportedly seen at Tom Brady’s Patriots Hall of Fame induction ceremony last week. However, talk about the relationship has now made its way into the pageant world.

According to the New York Post, Hudson has competed in the Miss USA and Miss Teen USA pageants. Speaking exclusively to the outlet, one fellow competitor in the Miss Massachusetts Teen USA pageant said she was shocked by the news.
"I didn’t even know she had a boyfriend — I heard from people she’s kind of all over the place with dating."

"She’s not shy — wanting the limelight is one thing, but dating someone in his 70s is another. I didn’t realize she’d go as far to do that for fame," the person said, adding that Belichick is "old enough to be her grandfather!"
Another person speculated that the two might have actually met on a dating app.
