Despite being out from the New England Patriots, Bill Belichick has hardly left the NFL town. Now and then, his participation with the football stars brings the 6 x Super Bowl coach under the limelight. This time once again Bill Belichick is under the spotlight but for a personal reason, away from the football gridiron. It has been speculated that the former Patriots coach is dating a former cheerleader 48 years his junior.

But this May-December romance between the 72-year-old coaching icon and 24-year-old Jordon Hudson is more than just tabloid fodder. It’s a touchdown-scoring connection built on an unexpected shared passion – philosophy.

According to sources, the unlikely romance between Belichick and Hudson took root during a fateful 2021 flight when they struck up a conversation about a philosophy project Hudson was working on. “They bonded over a philosophy project the student-athlete had been working on,” one insider reveals.

Over the ensuing months, the pair stayed in touch, with Belichick offering mentorship on Hudson’s scholastic work and cheerleading routines. They swapped contact information after landing and stayed friendly through the ensuing months. This was to discuss her school work and the X’s and O’s of her cheerleading routines as per reports.

By the time the 2022 NFL season kicked off, their friendship had scored a philosophical touchdown in the end zone of love. “Our sources say, though, that soon after Belichick’s split with [former girlfriend] Holliday — which we’re told privately took place during the 2022 season — they became more than just friends,” revealed several sources. And till date, it is being speculated that the former HC and his new partner are enjoying each other’s company.

From cheerleading champion to business partner, Jordon Hudson

Jordon Hudson brings far more to the table than just her status as Belichick’s girlfriend. This former competitive cheerleader is a winner in her own right, capturing the National Cheerleaders Association Collegiate Championship in 2021. “National champion has a nice ring to it,” her Instagram bio proudly proclaims alongside a championship ring emoji.

But overcoming obstacles to reach those heights is something Hudson knows well, as she credits medical professionals “who aided in neurological damage rehabilitation as resulted from repetitive concussions” for allowing her to “un-retire” and get back on the mat. Her diverse talents extend well beyond just athletic accomplishments though. Hudson dubs herself a “Glamorous Girl Scout,” former Miss Hancock USA, and “philosopher” on Instagram, suggesting an unconventional spirit, love of nature/animals, and deep intellectual curiosity.

Those multidimensional qualities and an entrepreneurial mindset help understand the potential of Hudson as revealed by an inside source: “We’re told Hudson…has even begun helping Belichick with his business endeavors.”

The cerebral pair’s philosophical connection has leveled up, with Hudson’s grit from overcoming obstacles and cheerleading mindset of “resilience, discipline, and punctuality” now being applied to the no-nonsense coach’s post-football ventures. However, nothing has been confirmed from either of the two parties regarding their relationship status and how things have been evolving between them.
