Jordon Hudson, the 24-year-old girlfriend of Bill Belichick, has subtly defended their relationship in the face of online criticism.
Although Hudson has largely remained silent about her personal life with the 72-year-old New England Patriots coach, she recently responded to a derogatory comment left on her Facebook page.
The comment, which appeared on a post from March that was unrelated to her relationship, derogatorily called her a “gold digger” and referred to Belichick as an “old [pedophile].”
In a quiet show of defiance, Hudson did not reply directly to the comment but instead chose to “heart” a response from another user who came to her defense, highlighting her status as a “legal adult.” This interaction was noted by the New York Post, which highlighted it as Hudson’s subtle way of addressing the harsh scrutiny she and Belichick have faced since their relationship became public.

The couple’s relationship, with its notable age gap, has been a topic of much conversation and speculation since TMZ Sports first reported they have been together since 2022.
Despite the controversy, Hudson has received support from unexpected quarters, including her ex-boyfriend, 64-year-old Joshua Zuckerman.
In a discussion with TMZ Sports, Zuckerman shared insights into his past relationship with Hudson, describing her as “wise beyond her years” and praising her intellectual depth.
Zuckerman revealed that he and Hudson met years ago and connected over shared interests in psychology, philosophy, and nature, which eventually led to a romantic relationship.
Although their romantic involvement ended before Hudson began dating Belichick, Zuckerman continues to speak highly of her, countering the negative narrative surrounding their relationship. “I feel bad that she’s caught up in this whirlwind,” he said, adding that discussions about business and shared intellectual pursuits were common between them.
The origins of Hudson and Belichick’s relationship trace back to a chance meeting on a plane headed to Florida, where they connected over Hudson’s college studies in competitive cheerleading.
Belichick even contributed to her academic pursuits, as evidenced by a photograph obtained by TMZ showing him signing one of her textbooks with a note thanking her for giving him “a course on logic.”
Recently, Hudson and Belichick have been seen stepping out publicly, including a double date at The Boarding House, a secretive private members’ club in Nantucket, as reported by DailyMail.com.
The couple was also spotted boarding a boat earlier the same day, further indicating that they are navigating their relationship amid public scrutiny and personal challenges.
