Jordon Hudson hijacks interview with age-gap boyfriend Bill Belichick - 'We're not talking about relationship'
Fans of Bill Belichick have sounded the alarm after an interview with the NFL legend was hijacked by his age-gap girlfriend.
As the former head coach, 73, was quizzed about his relationship with Jordon Hudson, 24, she called out from off-stage: 'We're not talking about this.'
The uncomfortable encounter happened on Sunday as Belichick sat down with Tony Dokoupil on CBS Mornings to promote his new book.
Hudson, who was described by Dokoupil as 'a constant presence during the interview,' was lurking off camera.
Dokoupil began quizzing Belichick on the relationship and asked how the couple met.
But before Belichick, who looked scruffy in a tattered and torn sweatshirt, could even open his mouth a stony-faced Hudson interjected: 'We're not talking about this.'
The awkward moment immediately sparked controversy on social media, with many fans expressing their fears for Belichick's wellbeing.
'My Sunday morning routine is always coffee and CBS Sunday Morning. It's a feel good show. The opposite of controversial,' Dave Portnoy posted on X alongside a clip of the interview, which was released on Sunday morning.
'So imagine my surprise this morning when they had the most awkward Bill Belichick interview I've ever seen. Like I was squirming in my seat.'
Piers Morgan echoed the Barstool Sports founder, insisting the University of North Carolina head coach needed help.
'It was utterly excruciating. Mr Belichick needs a family or friend intervention asap,' the British media personality wrote, quote-tweeting Portnoy's post.
Other NFL fans agreed, with many appearing to suggest something troubling was happening behind the scenes.
'Yikes: This has to be the most awkward Bill Belichick interview he's ever done... Something strange is going on with Jordon Hudson,' one account shared.
'Did they hold Bill Belichick at gun point during this interview??? Holy hell man,' another added.
'She behaves like a handler…this is so odd. Soooo odd,' a third chimed in, while a fourth posted: 'Blink twice if u need help, BB.'
Meanwhile, another concerned fan asked: 'Is he sane? Is he ok?'
Other concerns were centered on Belichick's bedraggled appearance - in particular the ragged sweatshirt, which had multiple holes in it including a large tear near the front collar.
'What's with the tattered navy sweatshirt,' one social media user questioned, shocked at Belichick's choice of attire for national television.
Another baffled fan shared the sentiment, asking: 'He couldn't pick a better sweatshirt!?!?'
Belichick was also asked about his relationship with New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, with whom he spent 24 seasons before they parted early last year.
Belichick has described the split as 'mutual', while Kraft has previously told the Breakfast Club the coach was 'fired.'
Regardless, Kraft was not mentioned at all in Belichick's new book, The Art Of Winning, and Dokoupil asked: 'Twenty-four years together, six Super Bowls - unless I'm wrong, he's not in this book. How come?'
'Well again, it's about my life lessons in football and it's really more about the ones that I experienced directly,' Belichick responded.
Dokoupil then shot back: 'He's not even in the acknowledgements section.'
Fierce defender: Hudson, a Miss Maine hopeful, has frequently hit back at critics over her relationship with Belichick
'Correct,' Belichick shrugged, as the camera remained fixed on him for an uncomfortable few seconds.
Belichick was then asked if he felt he was treated with 'dignity and respect' when he was let go from his role with the Patriots, to which he responded: 'It was a mutual decision.'
Asked about the attention on his relationship with the much younger Hudson, Belichick said: '[I've] never been too bothered about what everyone else thinks. Just try to do what I feel is best for me and what's right.'
And despite Hudson's reluctance to talk in the CBS Mornings interview, she has previously documented their relationship on social media over the last year.
She recently posted on Instagram to celebrate Belichick turning 73.
'Wishing the happiest of birthdays to my twin flame,' the Miss Maine USA hopeful wrote in the caption.

'I wish more shows were like this': Your favourite underrated crime dramas
Police procedurals, legal dramas and Scandi noir. Whatever your poison, you've probably binged one or two TV crime shows in your time. Line of Duty, The Fall and Broadchurch are just a few of the most popular in the genre, keeping viewers gripped episode after episode with their complex conspiracies and sudden twists. But while they're certainly deserving of the praise, sometimes the most bingeable series are those that fly under the radar, despite glowing reviews. We asked Metro readers to share their favourite underrated crime dramas, and these are the lesser-known series they recommend adding to your watch list… One user, called Evan_Underscore, heaped praise on Mr Inbetween, an Australian TV series that follows a criminal for hire. 'The dialogues and the situations feel so realistic that everything feels theatrical compared to it,' they wrote. 'It's also great in mixing terrible and funny in a way that they only complement each other.' Another user, wobbsey, recommended Giri/Haji, a BBC production from 2019 that is available on Netflix. In their glowing assessment of the series, they wrote: 'Set in Japan and the UK. Family loyalty and conflict. Yakuza mobsters. Cops. It's suspenseful and moving. Gorgeous cinematography which is something I rarely even notice!' They added: 'The last episode is particularly stunning. Not enough people know this show, under appreciated gem.' Meanwhile, AltruisticCableCar is clearly a fan of Scandi noir, recommending three Swedish crime dramas. They suggested Wallander, both the original series and the British remake, though they added 'I prefer the remake'. They went on 'Also Glaskupan (The Glass Dome). Just recently watched this and whoa. Åremorden (The Åre Murders) is another one.' Other lesser-known crime series recommended by Metro readers included Damages, starring Glenn Close, 2019 BBC series The Capture and American police procedural Major Crimes. Looking for more TV recommendations? We also asked Metro readers about their favourite underrated TV thrillers, and these series came out top: House of Cards — No, not the Kevin Spacey series, but the original British version following a fictional Chief Whip of the Conservative Party. — No, not the Kevin Spacey series, but the original British version following a fictional Chief Whip of the Conservative Party.

The Worricker Trilogy — The three films star Bill Nighy as MI5 officer Johnny Worricker, whose life is turned upside down when his boss and best friend dies suddenly. Read all about these underrated TV thrillers. This dark comedy follows Ray Shoesmith (Scott Ryan), a father who's struggling to juggle his relationship, parental responsibilities, friendships and a sick brother — all while working as a criminal for hire. Inspired by the cult film The Magician, in which a hitman hires a student to document his life, Mr Inbetween has proved extremely popular with viewers, earning a 95% Rotten Tomatoes score and a near-perfect 98% audience score. Fans have called it 'criminally underrated', with many comparing it to smash hit series Breaking Bad. Where to watch: Seasons one to three are available to stream on Disney Plus. Giri/Haji's perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score speaks for itself. Cruelly axed by BBC and Netflix after just one series (despite being nominated for three Baftas), this series is a true hidden gem. It follows a Tokyo detective (Takehiro Hira) who is searching for his missing brother in London's underworld, after he became mixed up with the Yakuza, a Japanese organised crime syndicate, and accused of murder. If you're a fan of Netflix's Black Doves, which stormed up the streamer's most-watched chart in December last year, Giri/Haji is worth checking out, as both dramas were created by screenwriter Joe Barton. In a review, The New Yorker called the series 'violently stylish' and a 'sexy police thriller', while the Daily Telegraph called it 'bold, bewitching and slightly bonkers'. Where to watch: All eight episodes are available to stream on Netflix. The BBC's Wallander stars Kenneth Branagh as a Swedish detective who investigates a series of gruesome murders. The series, which first aired on BBC One in 2008 and is an adaptation of the mystery novels by Henning Mankell, has been hailed as 'wonderful' and 'terrific', with plenty of praise for Branagh as the lead. Viewer Anthony Pearce wrote in a Google review: 'Having watched this series for the second time I can only say it was as wonderful and fantastically acted as I had remembered. Kenneth Branagh is undoubtedly one of our finest actors'. And Anne Norton added: 'Wallander was terrific!!! My first Swedish crime show, and it didn't disappoint. Kenneth Branagh's acting is just outstanding'. Last month, Variety reported that Wallander is set to return to screens in a reboot, which will see detective Kurt Wallander, now 42, struggle to get his life under control, having separated from his wife and become estranged from his daughter. Where to watch: Series one to four are available for free on BBC iPlayer. A much more recent release, The Glass Dome (Glaskupan in Swedish) landed on Netflix in April this year. The six-part series follows a criminologist (Léonie Vincent) who returns to her small hometown and 'becomes wrapped up in the investigation of a missing girl and its haunting similarities to her own childhood abduction'. Perhaps less of a hidden gem than the others on this list, it quickly climbed the ranks on Netflix to peak at number two on the streamer's weekly round-up of most-watched shows. But, as non-English language shows can sometimes go overlooked by British viewers, The Glass Dome remains unfamiliar to some. Don't let the language barrier put you off, though, it's been praised as 'gripping' and 'tanatalising' by critics, while viewers have called it 'haunting' and 'brilliant'. Where to watch: Stream all six episodes on Netflix. Another hit from Sweden, The Åre Murders is based on a popular series of books by author Viveca Sten. The Nordic noir follows a detective who has been suspended from duty (Carla Sehn), seeking solace in the idyllic but eerie ski resort town of Åre. But she soon becomes wrapped up in investigating the mysterious disappearance of a young woman. Netflix subscribers clearly love a Scandi drama, as this series achieved a whopping 11,000,000 views in one week when it landed in February this year. On Rotten Tomatoes, critics praised the drama as well as its Scandinavian setting. Common Sense Media's review read: 'This is an edge-of-your-seat crime series that spans two separate murders in one small, snowy, Swedish town.' And Decider wrote: 'The Åre Murders features all the hallmarks of the Nordic noir genre… throw in some fantastic location shots of Sweden's mountainous north, and we're all the way in on this investigation.' Where to watch: Stream all five episodes on Netflix. Glenn Close stars as Patty Hewes, a brilliant but ruthless lawyer whose life is changed forever when she hires a young, ambitious protégé (Rose Byrne). Though the series focuses on the complex relationship between the two professionals, it also charts the cases they work on — taking a three-pronged approach as a legal thriller, gripping murder mystery and an adrenaline-fueled character study. The series has an impressive 91% average score on Rotten Tomatoes, with series three and four both receiving a 100% rating. A review from the Los Angeles Times called Damages 'one of the best shows on television', while New York Daily News wrote 'few shows on television are written and acted with such fascinating mystery.' Where to watch: Available for purchase on Amazon Prime Video from £2.49. Starring Callum Turner, Ben Miles and Paapa Essiedu, this BBC crime thriller explores the 'terrifying world of deepfake technology' through the eyes of an 'ambitious young Detective Inspector' (played by Holliday Grainger). The first season sees a soldier's past conviction of murder, which was overturned due to flawed video evidence, come back to haunt him, while season two follows a new conspiracy involving Chinese spies and a British politician. Fans have praised it as 'stunningly good', with one anonymous user writing on Rotten Tomatoes: 'Absolutely gripping show. Moves at a great pace with great actors and a great storyline. Twists and turns and super realistic to the current world.' Another said: 'One of the best series I've ever watched. Thought the first season was good but the 2nd takes it to the next level. Need more series like this. The ending was sublime, left me utterly speechless.' Where to watch: Series one and two are available on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. If you're a fan of American police procedural The Closer, you might also want to check out Major Crimes, which is set in the same police department. Captain Sharon Raydor (Mary McDonnell) leads the team in the LAPD's Major Crimes Division, and is attempting to repair burned bridges and win the trust of her colleagues while dealing with high-profile crimes and building air-tight cases. More Trending On Google reviews, Sherel Hallford wrote of the series: 'Such an Outstanding show! Characters and actors are admirable and realistic. The storylines [are] so enjoyable. Mary McDonnell portrayed Captain Raydor so well, showing dignity, integrity, strength and intelligence.' And Lesly S called Major Crimes 'one of my favorite shows of all time.' They added: 'This show was a classic and I wish more shows were like this.' View More » Where to watch: Available for purchase on Amazon Prime Video from £2.49. Got a story?

Naturally head-gear was the focal point of many of the ladies' outfits with the woman showcasing an impressive display of hats, fascinators and headpieces. Keen to keep their cool, many racegoers came prepared for the hot weather, armed with hand-held fans and parasols. And of course plenty of sunglasses were seen perched on the noses of the well-heeled attendees today as squinting is hardly stylish. The famous event attracts plenty of famous faces, including celebrities, sports personalities and of course royalty. Each year the royal family flocks to Ascot to witness the action. However, on Thursday the Princess of Wales pulled out of Royal Ascot at the last minute as she continues her cancer recovery. It is understood that Kate, 43, was "disappointed" that she wasn't going but 'has to find the right balance' on returning to full time duty. She attended Trooping the Colour and Order of the Garter in recent days plus a visit to V&A East Storehouse last week.

Gentlemen are required to don morning suits complete with top hats, while ladies must adhere to a refined dress code: dresses or skirts that fall just above the knee or longer, straps of at least one inch in width, and, of course, a statement hat is non-negotiable. For those in the Queen Anne Enclosure, the dress code is still elegant but slightly more relaxed, allowing for a touch of personal flair.

'Greatest' James Bond film of all time ranked by Rotten Tomatoes
The James Bond film franchise has been running since 1962, with 27 movies released over the years - and now the entire collection has been ranked from worst to best Across 27 films and seven actors taking on the role of the iconic 007 agent, James Bond has established itself as a quintessential British film franchise since the swinging sixties. But which film claims the crown as the best Bond flick? Rotten Tomatoes, one of the most reliable film and telly review sites, is often the first port of call for those seeking the truth about a film's quality, giving power to the people. Its 'Tomatometer' calculates an overall score based on cinema-goers' reviews, and this has enabled them to rank all of the James Bond films in order, with the top spot boasting an impressive 99% score. James Bond was initially conceived in 1953 by Ian Fleming as a fictional British Secret Service agent, whose life and missions spanned 12 novels and two short stories. However, in 1962, Fleming's character made his screen debut, altering the trajectory of British film history with Dr No, the inaugural Bond film, which remains one of the best-reviewed of the 007 movies. Since then, the franchise has soared to new heights, with fans eagerly awaiting each new release and watching the international man of mystery traverse the globe, undertake new missions, and don swanky new suits. While the worst-reviewed film of the Bond franchise is the 1967 spoof Casino Royale, featuring David Niven, claiming the top spot is Goldfinger, released in 1964, reports the Express. Goldfinger, the dazzling third James Bond offering, reigns supreme as viewers' top pick of the series, featuring Sean Connery's iconic portrayal as the suave MI6 operative. After the success of its predecessors, the budget for Goldfinger was ramped up to match the combined expenditure of the first two films, setting the stage for the enterprise's first major blockbuster and paving the way for future extravaganzas. An enthusiast on Rotten Tomatoes lavished praise, writing: "The Bond film to which all others must be compared. The girls, the guns, the gadgets, the locations, the villains, the evil master plan... it may not have been the first Bond film, but it is, and likely always will be, the standard-bearer." Another fan said: "Goldfinger hands down is one of the best in the entire series. It simply has everything great to offer: you have action, one-liners, a great villain, a memorable Bond girl and Sean Connery as Bond. Absolutely iconic." Not to be outdone, From Russia With Love claims second place with an impressive 97% score, attributed to its 'spectacular' scenes, and remaining unforgettable with Connery at the helm. One viewer summed up: "Sean Connery will never truly be replaced as Bond," adding: "And, if 'Dr No' wasn't enough proof of that, look no further than this funny, thrilling and sexy adventure." We must track down to fourth place in the rolodex of Bond films to encounter the modern-era 007s, with Daniel Craig's debut in 'Casino Royale' leading the charge. 'No Time to Die', which graced the silver screen in 2021, nestles at number seven amidst the top-rated Bonds. This chapter marked the curtain call for Daniel Craig as the iconic spy, passing the famed baton on to an as-yet undisclosed successor. Fans were vocal about Craig's swansong, with one critic saying: "Daniel Craig's final Bond is EVERYTHING we hoped for! Action, emotion, and a perfect goodbye to the 007 who redefined the role." Another added: "The multiverse-level excitement of bringing his journey full circle with heart & high stakes. It's not just about stopping the villain; it's Bond facing his past & legacy. Craig is on fire, balancing grit & vulnerability like no other. We came for the action and stayed for the emotion. This film gave us closure & left us in awe. A proper farewell to a Bond we'll never forget." Bond aficionados eager for a dive into espionage nostalgia or simply wishing to treat themselves to the unparalleled 'Goldfinger', can find solace as it's available for streaming on ITVX and Amazon Prime.
