They Met on a Plane

The unlikely pair reportedly met on a flight in 2021 after bonding over a philosophy project the then-student was working on.

They exchanged numbers and, although their relationship was friendly at first, things turned romantic sometime in 2023, per TMZ.

In fact, the duo was first spotted together as early as January 2023, seven months before his breakup from Holliday was reported.

However, they didn’t confirm their romance until news broke that Belichick was officially a single man, stepping out hand-in-hand in New Orleans.

This doesn’t appear to be just a fling for the former New England Patriots coach, as he reportedly started including Holliday in his business endeavors.

Collegiate Cheerleader Career

Hudson was a competitive cheerleader at Bridgewater State University in Massachusetts and even won a national championship title with the squad in 2021.

In February, she acknowledged National Girls & Women in Sports Day by sharing the positive impact cheerleading had on her life.

She was also a cheerleader at BSU before graduating in 2022. Jordon Hudson/Instagram

“I’d like to put out how grateful I am for the sport that kept me anchored through difficult seasons of adolescence and young adulthood, engrained resilience, discipline, and punctuality into my bones (thanks J$) and brought me lifelong friends,” she wrote.

However, she also thanked all “the medical professionals” who helped her “in neurological damage rehabilitation as resulted from repetitive concussions.”

She graduated from BSU with a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy in May 2022.

However, she seemingly kept up with the sport post-grad as Belichick was spotted at the 2024 Coastal At The Capitol Cheer and Dance event in Maryland in March, where she reportedly competed.
