Bill Belichick is dating Jordon Hudson, who is 49 years his junior. Here's a timeline of their relationship.

The 24-year-old former competitive cheerleader celebrated her "meetiversary" with Belichick in an Instagram post on February 11.

In the post, Hudson shared a video showing Belichick's autograph on the book she was reading on the plane when they met: Warren Goldfarb's "Deductive Logic."

"Thanks for giving me a course on logic!" he wrote inside the book on February 11, 2021, adding his signature and the years in which the Patriots won the Super Bowl.

Hudson added in her post, "Cheers to the fact that you still let me give you lengthy philosophical lectures four years later."

According to Hudson's LinkedIn profile, she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy from Bridgewater State University in Massachusetts in May 2022.

Belichick began dating Linda Holliday in 2007, a year after finalizing his divorce from Debby Clarke Belichick, with whom he had three children: Amanda, Stephen, and Brian. Clarke and Belichick had been married since 1977.

Over the course of their 16-year relationship, Holliday served as president of the Bill Belichick Foundation.

In September 2023, People reported that the couple had split, citing sources close to the couple.

A few months later, in January 2024, the New England Patriots announced that the team and Belichick — its head coach of 24 years — had "mutually agreed" to part ways. Belichick had led the Patriots to six Super Bowl victories.

In December 2024, Belichick was hired as the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's head football coach. He signed a five-year contract with the school, marking the first time he had worked with collegiate sports in his career.

In June 2024, People reported that Belichick was dating Hudson, citing sources who said the two had been dating for over a year at that point.

After the relationship became public, their nearly 50-year age gap swiftly caught the public's and media's interest. Publications like the Daily Mail and the New York Post reported on the age gap, while personalities like Dave Portnoy reacted to the couple's relationship on his podcast.

In September 2024, the couple made their Instagram debut, with Hudson posting a picture of the two together and welcoming Belichick to the social media platform.

Since then, the Maine beauty pageant queen has shared pictures of the two on hikes and trips, and attending events together. She also shared some behind-the-scenes snaps of their Halloween costumes, in which they dressed up as a fisherman and a mermaid.

On her account, Hudson has also shared about her life as a former competitive cheerleader, beauty pageant queen, and advocate for local Maine fisheries, describing herself as the daughter of a fisherman.

Belichick and Hudson made their red-carpet debut in December 2024, when they attended the American Museum of Natural History gala in New York City.

The couple attended the NFL Honors awards show together in 2025.

At the event, Snoop Dogg took a swipe at Hudson's age.

"I've been a football fan for a long, long time. I remember back when the Cowboys was good. I remember back when the Chiefs was bad," Snoop Dogg said in his monologue at the event. "And I remember ... what was it? Bill Belichick's girlfriend wasn't even born yet."

Hudson made her Super Bowl commercial debut alongside Belichick when the two appeared in a Dunkin' commercial that aired during the big game.

Dunkin' fans and Boston natives Ben and Casey Affleck starred in the ad, which also featured appearances by actor Jeremy Strong and comedian Druski.

While promoting his new memoir, "The Art of Winning: Lessons from a Life in Football," Belichick was interviewed by Tony Dokoupil for "CBS Sunday Morning," where he talked about his career and the book.

According to Dokoupil, Hudson was a "constant presence" during the interview, where she sat off-camera.

Towards the end of the interview, Dokoupil asked Belichick about his relationship with Hudson and how he handled the intense attention that had come with it.

"Never been too worried about what everybody else thinks," Belichick said. "Just try to do what I feel like is best for me and what's right."

When Dokoupil asked how the two met, Hudson interjected: "We're not talking about this."

The interruption, captured in a clip shared by CBS, went viral, with viewers speculating over Hudson's apparent role in Belichick's career. Publications like The Washington Post and The Boston Globe published opinion pieces about the couple's relationship, and sports figures like Charles Barkley expressed concern following the viral clip.

In response, on April 30, Belichick released a statement through the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and accused CBS of portraying a "false narrative" of his relationship with Hudson.

"Jordon, with whom I share both a personal and professional relationship, stepped in to reiterate that point to help refocus the discussion," he wrote in the statement.

Also that day, Hudson shared an email Belichick sent to his team before the interview aired. In his email, he expressed frustration at what outlets were focusing on during his book tour, saying, "This is about what I expected from the media."

CBS responded to their remarks, saying that their interview with Belichick had no "preconditions or limitations."

In a May 16 appearance on "Good Morning America," Belichick told anchor Michael Strahan about Hudson's role in his professional career.

"She's been terrific through the whole process, and she's been very helpful to me," Belichick said. "She does the business things that don't relate to North Carolina that come up in my life so I can concentrate on football, and that's really what I want to do."

"You know, sometimes I get a little football technical," Belichick added. "So she did a good job of keeping me on balance [writing the memoir]."

Hudson wasn't present during the interview.

While Belichick didn't expand on their relationship — telling Strahan, "You know I'm not talking about personal relationships, Michael" — he did tell the anchor that he was happy and that the two had a "good personal relationship."
