Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson Reportedly Split a Year Ago

Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson reportedly ended their controversial romance late last year, unbeknownst to many people within the North Carolina Tar Heels football program.

As reported by TMZ, sources close to the couple said that Hudson and Belichick, who became the North Carolina Tar Heels head coach in 2025 following over two decades with the New England Patriots, quietly split up "late last year."

Despite ending their romance, the 74-year-old and 25-year-old are "committed to their business partnerships and remain close friends." Another source said that Hudson has since started dating other people, but her current relationship status is unclear.

The couple, who drew a lot of attention for their almost 50-year age gap, first met on a flight in 2021 and reportedly started dating in 2023. They didn’t go public with their relationship until 2024. Despite reportedly splitting up last year, Hudson has been seen at various public events with Belichick throughout the year, and she was recently seen supporting the North Carolina Tar Heels home game against Syracuse just last week.

Belichick repeatedly dismissed criticism of the relationship during their time together. In 2025, he shut down a question about whether the relationship would "impact" his head coaching duties at the University of North Carolina.
