Bill Belichick
's 24-year-old companion, is encountering significant social hurdles on Nantucket. Island insiders suggest that the community's affluent circles remain steadfast in their allegiance to
Linda Holliday
, Belichick's ex-partner.
An insider stated, "Linda's deeply embedded in Nantucket's social and charity scene."

Jordon Hudson, the current girlfriend of celebrated
NFL coach
Bill Belichick, is reportedly facing an icy reception within the exclusive social circles of Nantucket. Despite her efforts to establish herself, the 24-year-old is said to be subtly excluded, largely due to the enduring loyalty the island's elite hold for Linda Holliday, Belichick's long-term former partner.
Sources indicate that Holliday has a well-established presence in Nantucket's philanthropic and social landscape. "Linda's deeply embedded in Nantucket's social and charity scene," an insider shared, emphasizing, "That's always been her space. Jordon's trying to step into it now, but it's not going over well."
Another individual familiar with the island's dynamics characterized the social environment as "extremely cliquey," where acceptance into charitable initiatives and private gatherings is highly selective.
They noted, "They don't open doors for people they don't see as a cultural fit," even suggesting that if Hudson were to frequent a spot like Galley Beach, "most people would roll their eyes."
Hudson's relative youth and the ambiguous timeline of her relationship with the 73-year-old Belichick are also contributing factors to the social unease. Reports suggest their initial meeting in 2021 occurred while Hudson was still a college student and Belichick was still publicly involved with Holliday.
The anecdote of Belichick charming Hudson with a flirtatious note in her "Deductive Logic" textbook while still with Holliday "makes people uncomfortable," according to one source, who posed the question, "They wonder if Jordon came into the picture before Linda was out of it."
Beyond Nantucket, Hudson's increasing visibility as Belichick's de facto public relations aide has also garnered scrutiny. An instance during a
CBS
interview in April, where she interrupted him mid-question, was widely perceived as awkward.
More recently, Belichick appeared alone on Good Morning America and, when queried about Hudson, offered only a brief response: "Well, we have a good personal relationship. And, you know, I'm not talking about personal relationships, Michael, you know that."
Despite the chilly reception from Nantucket's high society, Hudson continues to hold a significant position in Belichick's personal life. He was recently observed in Portland, Maine, quietly supporting her from the audience at the
Miss Maine pageant
.
Hudson, who had contemplated withdrawing after the CBS interview controversy, ultimately placed third. However, even the detail of her accommodation during the pageant—a Holiday Inn—drew further criticism from detractors.

A source commented, "That's just not seen as elegant around here. Competing in Miss Maine and staying at the Holiday Inn isn't the kind of thing that impresses
Nantucket society
." It appears that while Hudson may have captured Belichick's affection, Nantucket's social hierarchy remains firmly aligned with Holliday.
