Bill Belichick has a new love interest.

Belichick, the 72-year-old ex-Patriots coach, is dating 24-year-old Jordon Hudson, who was formerly a cheerleader, TMZ reported Friday.

Belichick has been linked with Hudson since shortly after he split with longtime girlfriend, Linda Holliday, according to the outlet.

Page Six reported Belichick and Holliday called it quits in September 2023.

One of Hudson’s former cheerleading teammates said Belichick’s love story began when they met on a flight from Boston to Florida in 2021, while he was still dating Holliday.

The two bonded over a philosophy project Hudson had been working on and exchanged contact information after landing, according to TMZ.

Belichick was seen in March at a cheerleading competition — foregoing the NFL combine — in National Harbor, Maryland, and, according to TMZ, he was there to watch Hudson.

Hudson, per the outlet, attended Tom Brady’s Patriots Hall of Fame induction alongside Belichick earlier this week.

She was also reportedly present at a number of games at Gillette Stadium during the 2022 and 2023 seasons.

The former Patriots coach was spotted on what was “clearly a date” with an unnamed brunette at Contessa Italiana in Boston back this March by Deuxmoi, a pseudonymous Instagram gossip account.

It’s unclear if he was out with Hudson.

Belichick, after 24 seasons in New England, parted ways with the Patriots in January after winning eight Super Bowls.
