Bill Belichick, 72, poses with girlfriend Jordon Hudson, 24, on red carpet as she flashes thigh in revealing dress
BILL Belichick and his 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson enjoyed a night on the town in New York.
The ex-New England Patriots coach, 72, and his partner posed on the red carpet of an exclusive event.
The couple were at The Museum Gala in New York City on Thursday night.
They both dressed their best as they stepped out for the gala.
Belichick was wearing a black suit with a white shirt and a bowtie.
While his girlfriend Hudson wore a black dress with silver trim that showed off her leg.
The couple’s relationship came to light earlier this year after Belichick was fired by the Patriots.
Hudson joked on social media last month that she was still scarred by jokes about their 48-year age gap.
She attended the Tom Brady roast this summer as a guest of Belichick.
Hudson said on Instagram last month, “Happy 6 Month Roast-iversary.
“Hopefully y’all’s burn wounds healed over.
“I know Bill and I are still applying bacitracin daily.”
The pair faced criticism over the age gap.
The U.S. Sun also revealed that Belichick has started shopping for an engagement ring.
According to the well-placed insider, the 72-year-old has visited “around 20” stores in New York and Los Angeles.
The source confirmed that plans are in place to get engaged to the former cheerleader “after the end of the season”.
“Since last June, has has talked that he loves her and that he sees his future with her,” said a close friend.
The downsides of having a massive age gap relationship
Dr. Jenn Mann, MFT, a licesesed therapist, reveals the key issues experienced by romantic partners with a huge age gap between them.
Dr. Mann claimed it might initially feel exciting when one partner is much younger than the other, like Bill Belichick, 72, and Jordon Hudson, 24, who share a whopping 48-year age difference.
“When people get older, they might just think it is refreshing that a young woman is looking at them adoringly and is attracted to them and is interested in him,” Dr. Mann told The U.S. Sun.
“[But] there is a huge gap in life experience — in just years on this planet, in the way that helps us to evolve, develop, and mature.”
“Even the most mature young person, when there is a 40-year age gap, the older people are incredibly immature.
“You’re not meeting in the middle regarding development and life experience.”
Dr. Mann said one common consideration for older male partners would be the younger female wanting a father figure.
“Usually, younger women are drawn to much older men because of unresolved issues with their fathers,” Dr. Mann added.
“This could be a lack of attention, love, someone not being there, or even someone being in the household but not being present the way she might wish he was.”
Dr. Mann noted that sexual and intimacy issues might begin to be at play, given the older partner may not have as much energy.
What’s more, for older men, “it becomes more difficult typically to get and maintain an erection,” she said.
“There are problems related to sexual performance, which can create other risks when it comes to taking medication for sexual performance.”
Socially, Dr. Mann suggested that issues may arise between a couple when they mix with friends from different generations.
“In this case, if they’re hanging with Bill’s friends in their seventies or even sixties and fifties, a 24-year-old woman at that table will likely struggle to find common ground socially,” she said.

“Their relationship makes him feel happy and complete.
“She understands him and supports him.
“He has been looking for a ring for the last two months.
“He asked how much he should spend on a ring and make it a special moment.”
Belichick labeled Hudson “my biggest catch” in the comments section on one of her social media posts when the couple were out at the beach.
The former Patriots coach has turned to media this year and taken up roles on the Pat McAfee Show and Inside the NFL.
He has reportedly held talks over a coaching return in 2025 with University of North Carolina in college football.
