Bill Belichick, 72, and his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, showed off their beachy couples costume for Halloween. The former cheerleader shared two photos of herself on Instagram, posing on the shore as a mermaid, with the ex-Patriots coach dressed as a fisherman relishing his latest catch. “Ouucchhhh!!!” the Miss Maine hopeful captioned the post, in which the May-December couple look absolutely giddy. Several of the remarks in the comments section nodded to the pair’s nearly 50-year age gap. “This is what Hemingway was talking about in Old Man and the Sea,” said one user. “Yooooo that’s someone’s grandpa,” wrote another. “Grandpa took you trick or treating,” read one comment. Others though were more supportive of the unconventional romance: “Thats [sic] just a different vibe seeing Bill that happy.” Another user remarked they were “happy to see Bill having fun.” Though it was referenced during Netflix’s roast of Tom Brady in early May, news of Belichick’s relationship didn’t formally break until the following month. Sources in June told TMZ that the couple started dating in 2022, shortly after Belichick broke up with longtime partner Linda Holliday. Belichick and Hudson reportedly met the year prior on a flight, during which they “bonded over a philosophy project” she was working on. Hudson is younger than her beau’s kids — Amanda, Steve and Patriots safeties coach Brian — from his marriage to Debby Clarke. “It would be like if I were going out with Timothée Chalamet. … There’s only so much Viagra in the world,” Joy Behar joked on “The View” in June, as the panel debated whether the relationship was based on a real connection. “It’s about the cash.” Hudson’s ex, 64-year-old businessman Joshua Zuckerman, defended the relationship, telling TMZ Sports that his lover-turned-“good friend” is “wise beyond her years. “The narrative about her character is not fair to her,” he said.
