NFL coaching icon Bill Belichick and his cheerleader girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, have reportedly ended their relationship, according to a new report.
TMZ reports that the couple quietly called time on their age-gap romance late last year. Hudson has since started seeing other men, the outlet claims.
Despite the split, the pair are said to remain close friends and continue working together on their business interests.
Belichick, 74, and Hudson, 25, reportedly began dating in 2022 after meeting on a flight from Boston to Florida.
They were photographed together for the first time in January 2023, before publicly confirming their relationship in June 2024.
Their romance quickly became a subject of intense public interest. The pair divided their time between North Carolina, where Belichick currently coaches the UNC football team, and Nantucket.

A source close to Hudson told TMZ that the relationship ended quietly “late last year,” although it remains unclear which of them initiated the breakup.
The outlet also reports that Hudson has been “seeing other people” since splitting from Belichick, who is 49 years older than her.
The reported breakup comes as a surprise because Hudson has remained a regular presence on the UNC sideline this season, including during last weekend’s game against Syracuse in Chapel Hill.
One week earlier, she joined Belichick at the team’s road game against Duke. The two appeared cheerful as they walked off the field together.
During their relationship, Hudson accumulated a property portfolio valued at approximately $9 million, as first reported by Our News Outlet.

She has purchased at least four properties, including one valued at $3 million. All of the purchases were made after she met the former New England Patriots coach.
She has also reportedly paid off the mortgages on each home. Her main residence is listed as a two-bedroom cottage on Cape Cod.
Public records show that Hudson has registered 18 companies, several of which have names suggesting she held—or continues to hold—some authority over Belichick’s affairs.
During their relationship, Hudson was described as Belichick’s de facto manager. The reports suggest she may still work with him in a business capacity, even if the romantic relationship has ended.
Her involvement in Belichick’s affairs drew particular attention during a CBS Sunday Morning interview in April 2025.
Hudson, who was seated off camera, interrupted reporter Tony Dokoupil’s questions about how the couple met, saying: “We’re not talking about this.”
CBS aired several of Hudson’s interruptions during the interview. TMZ later reported that she “walked out and delayed filming by 30 minutes” and even corrected Belichick at one point as he discussed football.
More recently, Belichick denied claims that Hudson had been “trying to control UNC’s football program,” calling the allegations “ridiculous” in a September interview with The Wall Street Journal.
Asked about reports that Hudson was involved in nearly every aspect of his life, Belichick dismissed them as a “flat-out lie.”
