Jenna Bush Hager once again shared her thoughts on the much-talked-about relationship between Coach Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson on Today With Jenna & Friends. She was joined by sports correspondent Erin Andrews, who has a good knowledge of Belichick.
The couple became a topic of conversation during their morning chat when Bush Hager mentioned that Hudson participated in the Miss Maine USA pageant over the weekend, with Belichick being seen in the audience.
“Yeah, she placed third,” Andrews contributed.
Bush Hager expressed surprise that Hudson did not win the pageant. “Oh, she didn’t even win?” she remarked before moving on with the show. “Well, anyway, TheDailyMail.com published photos of Bill sitting right in the front.” Bush Hager’s casual comment triggered some laughs among the hosts on set.
Andrews shared that she had heard the pageant was a hot-ticket event, likely because of Belichick and Hudson’s involvement.
She went on to share that she has asked Tom Brady for his thoughts on Belichick’s relationship, though she did not share what the NFL Hall of Famer specifically said about the matter.
“I gotta say, people have asked a lot, and I work with Brady so I have been asking him a lot, ‘What do you think about this?’ Because he knows coach as a coach and I know coach from being on the sidelines,” she explained. “And look, Bill Belichick is royalty.”
She continued, “He is the Mount Rushmore. I know how he is on the field, he’s very matter of fact. You get two seconds to talk to him, I am full-blown stomach cramps when I get ready to talk to him because I don’t want to mess up… So, Jordon’s got the congeniality points if she’s got him showing up front row.”
Bush Hager also asked Andrews what her thoughts were on the ripped sweatshirt Belichick wore during the viral 60 Minutes interview that Hudson famously interrupted.
Andrews admitted she was surprised by his wardrobe choice, but noted that Belichick is known for his eclectic sense of style. “I don’t think I’ve ever really seen coach like that before,” she admitted. “He’s a character but this is a side no one’s seen before.”
Bush Hager added in agreement, “We’re all surprised by it.”
This isn’t the first time the couple has been shaded on Today. Guest host Wanda Sykes made it very clear that she did not believe Hudson and Belichick met on an airplane like they claimed.
Today with Jenna & Friends airs on weekdays at 10/9c on NBC.
