Jordon Hudson is in on the joke this Halloween.
“The costume I never seem to be able to take off,” Hudson, 24, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, November 1, sharing a mirror selfie showing off her costume, which turned out to be, well, herself.
In the pic, Hudson wore a gray Naval Academy sweatshirt with a pair of sunglasses on her head and a bright red lip. The pageant queen previously wore a similar ensemble when she accompanied boyfriend Bill Belichick to his now-infamous CBS Sunday Morning sit-down in April.
At one point during the interview, broadcaster Tony Dokoupil attempted to ask Belichick, 73, how he started dating Hudson, considering their 48-year age difference.
Before the Super Bowl-winning NFL coach could explain their introduction on a plane, Hudson interrupted, telling the reporter, “We’re not talking about this” from her perch on the side of the set.
After the interview fallout prompted speculation about Hudson’s involvement in Belichick’s career, the football pro issued a statement.
“I agreed to speak with CBS Sunday Morning to promote my new book, The Art of Winning – Lessons from My Life in Football,” Belichick wrote in a statement. “Prior to this interview, I clearly communicated with my publicist at Simon & Schuster that any promotional interviews I participated in would agree to focus solely on the contents of the book. Unfortunately, that expectation was not honored during the interview.”

He continued, “I was surprised when unrelated topics were introduced, and I repeatedly expressed to the reporter, Tony Dokoupil, and the producers that I preferred to keep the conversation centered on the book.”
Belichick stressed that the interview veered from the preapproved topics “several times,” leading Hudson to step in to “refocus the discussion.”
“She was not deflecting any specific question or topic but simply doing her job to ensure the interview stayed on track,” he added. “Some of the clips make it appear as though we were avoiding the question of how we met, but we have been open about the fact that Jordon and I met on a flight to Palm Beach in 2021.”
Bill Belichick‘s relationship with Jordon Hudson has everyone’s attention for their 48-year age gap. The couple sparked romance rumors in 2023 when they were spotted on multiple public outings. Several NFL players subsequently poked fun at his love life. “Belichick’s a smooth operator,” Travis Kelce said on a June 2024 episode of his and Jason […]
CBS, however, denied the famed coach’s claims that certain topics were off limits when Belichick sat down with Dokoupil, 44.
“When we agreed to speak with Mr. Belichick, it was for a wide-ranging interview,” a spokesperson for CBS News said in a statement. “There were no preconditions or limitations to this conversation. This was confirmed repeatedly with his publisher before the interview took place and after it was completed.”
As for Belichick and Hudson, they also continue to maintain that the former cheerleader has nothing to do with Belichick’s football career. (He currently coaches the University of Chapel Hill — North Carolina team.)
“I stay focused on football and, some of the other opportunities that come along, Jordon looks at those and can dig into them a little bit deeper,” Belichick said on “The Pivot” podcast in May. “What she does is help me spend my time on football, and that’s what’s important to me.”
He concluded, “Jordon has her own businesses and she’s savvy in those. I’m football and I let her help me with business.”
