Bill Belichick is dating a 24-year-old competitive cheerleader – and fans have been highly critical of the relationship.
News broke on Friday that Belichick, 72, was dating Jordon Hudson, a recent college graduate 48 years his junior.
And the internet had a field day with the update, as many people flocked to the comments of Hudson’s Instagram account.
‘Your relationship is gross,’ one said.
‘I’m sure [your] parents are real proud,’ another commented.

Another mean-spirited commenter encouraged her to ‘hurry up and get pregnant’ because having a child with Belichick would be her ‘greatest accomplishment in life.’
And a different commenter asked her where her ‘self respect’ was: ‘anything for money I guess.’
One woman, however, offered a bit of encouragement: ‘Girl, you’re amazing! Live your life with whoever the hell you wanna live it with.’
Over on X, the mockery continued, as one fan cracked, ‘imagine your 22-year-old daughter comes home for the weekend with her new boyfriend and it’s bill belichick’ (the couple reportedly met in 2021).
To that, one X user joked, ‘Does her dad call him coach? I bet he does.’
Belichick, 72, reportedly hit it off with Hudson on a flight from Boston to Florida in 2021

Another responded, ‘Daughter taken care of for life and box seats to New England games? He’s probably crying tears of joy.
According to TMZ, who broke the news, Belichick first hit it off with Hudson on a flight from the Boston-area to Florida back in 2021.
The pair are said to have bonded over a philosophy project that Hudson – a student-athlete as well as an entrepreneur – had been working on at the time.
They reportedly exchanged contact information after landing and kept in contact over the next few months while discussing the former Bridgewater State University student’s school work and cheerleading routines.

The relationship then became romantic after Belichick called off his longtime relationship with TV host Linda Holliday.
More recently, the relationship has become more public, with Belichick spotted rooting for her at a cheerleading competition in Maryland earlier this year.
TMZ also claims that Hudson secretly visited Gillette Stadium to support Belichick and the Patriots during the 2022 and 2023 seasons (he parted ways with the organization after last season).
Belichick has also been seen with Hudson on a work trip to Croatia, while she even attended Tom Brady’s Patriots Hall of Fame induction ceremony with him this week.
