Bill Belichick, the former head coach of the New England Patriots, was recently seen enjoying a serene morning with his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, aboard his $225,000 powerboat named VIII Rings, which celebrates his eight Super Bowl titles.
The sighting, captured by DailyMail.com on a sunny Wednesday in Nantucket, marks the first public appearance of the couple since news of their relationship came to light.
Belichick and Hudson, a former cheerleader, were photographed looking relaxed and at ease as they disembarked from the boat.
Hudson, stylishly attired in an off-the-shoulder black top paired with white lacy shorts, was seen clutching nautical buoys and checking her phone, while engaging in light conversation with Belichick and another male companion. The former coach sported a casual look with a blue baseball cap, polo shirt, and shorts, carrying a blanket and a bag as they prepared to leave the marina.

This outing comes after the couple’s relationship became public knowledge, following a period of keeping a low profile.
Their relationship reportedly began in 2022 after Belichick’s 16-year relationship with Linda Holliday ended. It was also revealed that Belichick and Hudson have been staying in one of Belichick’s lavish properties on Nantucket, part of a compound of homes he owns on the island, valued at approximately $15.7 million in total. This particular property, a three-bedroom, three-bathroom home valued at $3,064,800, offers complete privacy and has become a cozy retreat for the couple.
Footage had surfaced showing Belichick leaving Hudson’s home, a moment that was humorously referenced by Tom Brady during a Netflix roast, unbeknownst to many that the home belonged to Belichick’s new partner.
The couple initially met on a flight from Boston to Florida in 2021, where they connected over Hudson’s philosophy project. This chance encounter led to further discussions and eventually, a deeper relationship.
Currently, the couple is enjoying a vacation in Nantucket along with Belichick’s son Brian, his wife Callie, their young child, and his daughter-in-law Jennifer Schmitt with her children.
The family gathering underscores the strong personal ties that bind them, even as Belichick transitions from his professional life in football to potentially new roles in broadcasting and possibly returning to coaching in the future.
Belichick’s longstanding affection for Nantucket, where he first bought property in 1979, adds a sentimental layer to their current stay. In past interviews, he has expressed his deep appreciation for the island’s community, its rich history, and its leisure offerings, from fishing to the local baked goods.
As Belichick and Hudson navigate their public debut as a couple, they continue to balance their private life with the inevitable interest that follows a figure of Belichick’s stature. The unfolding of their relationship will likely continue to attract attention as they explore this new chapter together.
