Former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick has reportedly ‘discussed marriage’ with his partner Jordon Hudson - but there's a catch.
Belichick, 72, has been dating Hudson, 24, for over two years. The former NFL coach began seeing the 24-year-old at the start of 2023 following his separation from his long-term now-ex-girlfriend Linda Holiday, with whom he had been in a relationship for around 16 years.
Hudson, a former Bridgewater State University cheerleader, is 48 years younger than Belichick, and the pair first met around four years ago.

And his former Patriots players had their say on his relationship during ‘The Roast of Tom Brady’ back in May 2024.
“Coach, you used to talk about Foxborough High School when we sucked,” said Rob Gronkowski who played as tight end for the Patriots between 2010 and 2018.
“But now I know why you were so obsessed with Foxborough High School: you were scouting your new girlfriend.”
Seven-time Super Bowl winner and former Patriots quarterback Tom Brady joked about the 72-year-old’s relationship.
"When somebody asked me which ring was my favourite, I used to say, ‘The next one,' ” he said. “Now that I’m retired, my favourite is that Ring camera that caught Coach Belichick slinking out of that poor girl’s house at 6 a.m. a few months ago."
And despite the age gap between the pair, based on their social media activity, they seem happy together, with Hudson regularly posting photographs of the duo together to her Instagram page, which boasts 65,000 followers.
But will the couple take the next step and get married?
Well, according to Page Six sources, the pair have “have definitely discussed marriage,” with reports also suggesting “they would definitely get a pre-nup” if they were to tie the knot.
A pre-nup - formerly known as a prenuptial agreement - is a legal contract between two people who are going to get married, which outlines how their assets will be divided if they were to divorce.
And despite pair seemingly being content. Former ESPN sportswriter, Pablo Torre, claims that the 24-year-old is acting as Belichick's "de-facto agent".
"What I have been told is that Jordon essentially has been functioning as Bill Belichick's... de facto agent," he explained on his podcast 'Pablo Torre Finds Out'.
"The person that you need to go through to book Bill Belichick for a Super Bowl commercial, or for the other commitments he has as a multi-platform personality. She's the gateway.
"What I've been told, reliably, is that Jordon happened to then use that power to be in the commercial as well."
