EXCLUSIVE Bill Belichick treats glam Jordon Hudson to the high life as they jet from Nantucket in style
After his young lover Jordon Hudson slammed his old squeeze Linda Holliday, all three have found themselves on the 45 square miles that make up Nantucket.
Perhaps that is why Belichick, 73, decided to whisk Hudson, 24, back to the mainland on Wednesday, jetting off in style to tony Saratoga Springs, New York, for a 'Grand Reopening' of a hotel after a $90 million refit.
The University of North Carolina head coach showed Hudson the meaning of his millions by splurging $5,000 for a private jet to the event at the 148-year-old Adelphi Hotel.
And noted horse race fan Belichick made sure they were in Saratoga just in time for Thursday's first day of racing at the July 4th Festival.
The couple, who have a 49-year age gap, had been hunkering down at the six-time Super Bowl winner's luxury compound on Nantucket since returning to the exclusive enclave off the Massachusetts coast.
The couple were all smiles for the cabin crew as they arrived at the private terminal at Nantucket Airport in preparation of jetting off to upstate New York
The May-December couple showed they have very different ideas of how to dress for a private flight. Jordon, 24, was glammed up in a floral tea dress, clutching a white boater with a light blue bow, while the 73-year-old North Carolina football coach schlumped around in a university sweat shirt, jeans, untied sneakers and a baseball cap
They boarded a NetJets-owned Cessna Citation Latitude jet at Nantucket airport on Wednesday afternoon. They landed in Saratoga 45 minutes later.
The duo were all smiles as they headed off with Hudson smiling demurely at their pilot greeting them.
Brunette beauty Hudson donned a vintage tea dress adorned with roses and paired it with a green bag with gold detailing and kitten heels.
She drove the former New England Patriots coach to the island's airport, smiling sweetly and pushing her sunglasses atop her head as her beau shook hands with airport staff.
Belichick pulled a small suitcase with his college team's logo emblazoned on the front to the private terminal, along with a large tote bag covered in lobsters.
Hudson used his Saks Fifth Avenue suit bag as an umbrella from the intermittent rain, clutching a straw hat adorned with the UNC cornflower blue ribbon.
The couple have been doing their best to cut a low profile after returning to Belichick's compound in Siasconset on the east coast of Nantucket –rarely venturing into the island's commercial area where his ex love Holliday lives.
When they did go into town, they were seen in a terse exchange, looking stressed before stonily going their separate ways.
Hudson cut a lonely figure as she indulged in some solo retail therapy on the cobbled streets of the island.

She went into several high-end stores, wearing $300 Gucci sunglasses, paired with $1,000 Jimmy Choo slip-on sneakers and a $3,5000 Bvlgari snake tote bag.
She also wore a small gold snake ring and added a matching bracelet to her outfit while heading to Saratoga.
Hudson has been keen to keep their loved-up image going strong, posting a photo of her older lover holding her hand on her Instagram story.
It is unclear if the recent criticism of their relationship in the public eye is finally taking its toll, or if the couple has been finding their return to the island uncomfortable following Hudson's public digs at Holliday.
The Daily Mail can reveal that they have been hunkering down in his compound, relaxing with popcorn and cooking for each other after ruffling feathers by showing up together at the Nantucket Film Festival over the weekend.
As we revealed, Hudson called Holliday 'pathetic' and 'delusional' after discovering a personal email she sent to Belichick during their 16-year relationship.
Belichick and Holliday, 62, broke up in September 2023 after 16 years together. He met Hudson on a flight from Boston to Florida in 2021.
There has been speculation over the timeline of Belichick and Hudson's relationship but a new report in People has claimed his relationship with Holliday had long been over when he started dating the former cheerleader.
'Many assumed that Bill had cheated on Linda through 2022 and 2023, but they were broken up by September 2022,' a source said.
'Linda was still pretending they were together after the breakup, and Bill played along so she could transition with the least amount of public humiliation and avoid abrupt displacement.
'Bill moved into a hotel nearby Gillette Stadium in September and allowed Linda to continue to stay in his homes.'
Belichick and Hudson made the trip to Saratoga just in time for Thursday's first day of racing of the four-day July the 4th Festival
Another source added that they had 'been pretty separate for a while' and they were dealing with problems that were 'not new' when they finally went their separate ways.
Tensions between Hudson and Holliday have been high for months. The two are said to have had a feisty exchange at a Christmas event in Nantucket towards the end of last year.
It ramped up last week though when Hudson engaged in the testy Instagram exchange after being called a 'gold digger' by a user she believed was Holliday's close friend.
Hudson claimed that she 'found' the letter at Belichick's home near Boston, and sent a picture of it to her supposed friend, insisting that Holliday should 'burn it.'

Reservoir Dogs star Michael Madsen dies aged 67
Michael Madsen, the US actor known for his roles in Quentin Tarantino 's Reservoir Dogs and Kill Bill, has died at the age of 67. Madsen was found unresponsive in his home in Malibu, California, on Thursday morning after dying from natural causes, according to authorities. Ron Smith, one of his managers, said Madsen had died of a cardiac arrest. 'In the past two years, Michael Madsen has been doing some incredible work with independent film including upcoming feature films Resurrection Road, Concessions and Cookbook for Southern Housewives and was really looking forward to this next chapter in his life,' his managers Smith and Susan Ferris, and publicist Liz Rodriguez, said. They added that he 'was one of Hollywood's most iconic actors, who will be missed by many'. Madsen was married three times and had seven children. His sister is the Oscar-nominated actor Virginia Madsen. Madsen was a prolific actor featuring in more than 300 films stretching back to the early 1980s. Born in Chicago in 1957, he got his start working at Chicago's Steppenwolf Theatre, which led to small early roles in 1980s films such as WarGames and The Natural. His global breakthrough came with 1992's Reservoir Dogs, in which he played the sadistic, ear-cutting Mr Blonde, who tortures a captured policeman. Mr Blonde was one of the 400 nominees for the American Film Institute's list of the all-time greatest movie villains. Madsen would go on to win acclaim for his wise-cracking tough guy roles and became a Tarantino regular, appearing in the Kill Bill films and the director's later works The Hateful Eight (2015) and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019). He was originally tipped to play John Travolta's role in Tarantino's 1994 cult classic Pulp Fiction, but dropped out to appear in Kevin Costner's Wyatt Earp instead – a choice he later said he came to regret. Other notable roles included Thelma and Louise (1991), Free Willy (1993), Die Another Day (2002) and Sin City (2005). Speaking to The Guardian in 2004, Madsen complained of the 'patchiness' of his career, which he attributed to having come too late for the parts he wanted to play. 'Maybe I was just born in the wrong era,' he said. 'I'm a bit of a throwback to the days of black-and-white movies. Those guys back then, they had a certain kind of directness about them. A lot of the screenplays, the plots were very simplistic – they gave rise to a type of anti-hero that maybe I suit better.' In 2012, Madsen appeared in Celebrity Big Brother and in 2013 launched his own brand American Bad Ass chilli sauce.

The Devil Wears Prada sequel is thought to be based on this book
Nearly two decades on from the seminal 2006 film, the hotly anticipated sequel to The Devil Wears Prada has officially begun filming. Yes, fashion's favourite villain Miranda Priestly is returning to the big screen – it appears 'that's [ not ] all'. Harried assistant Emily( Emily Blunt), scriptwriter Aline Brosh McKenna and director David Frankel are all returning, as well as leads Anne Hathaway (Andy) and Stanley Tucci as the beloved Nigel. Joining the impressive roster of returning actors, Kenneth Branagh is set to star as Priestley's husband. One character missing from the sequel is Nate, Andy's boyfriend from the first movie and one of the biggest villains among fans (perhaps more so than Miranda). Based on Lauren Weisberger's bestselling 2003 book of the same name, the movie saw Andrea hired as a personal assistant to a powerful magazine editor. Set in the high-octane fashion world of New York, the job soon becomes a nightmarish struggle to keep up with her boss's increasingly outlandish demands and schedule. Weisberger was a former personal assistant of Anna Wintour, and it's widely believed that the US Vogue editor was her inspiration for the character of Miranda, though Wintour has claimed she has no memory of the author working for her. Details on the follow-up film remain sparse, but it's thought that the new movie could use Weisberger's 2013 sequel as source material. From plot details to where to buy the book, here's everything you need to know about Revenge Wears Prada. Set a decade after the events of the first book, Andy is now 30 years old and a successful editor at a bridal fashion magazine, launched with her former nemesis and new best friend, Emily Charlton. On the brink of marriage, starting a family and at the peak of her career, Andy is still haunted by her former boss at Runway magazine, Miranda Priestly. Despite trying to avoid her at all costs, the two cross paths once again when Runway 's publishing company seeks to buy Andy's magazine, The Plunge. In a role reversal from the first book, Miranda begins to court Andy and Emily to encourage them to sell out. Plot details of the movie sequel remain under wraps, but initial reports suggest the film will centre on Miranda who is navigating her career as traditional print publishing begins to decline. Breaking away from the novel, it's thought Emily is now a high-powered executive for a luxury group in the movie sequel, with Miranda seeking advertising money from her. So while the film might take some themes from Revenge Wears Prada, it could be taking a different plot route. The sequel's release date is set for Friday, 1 May 2026 – let's hope the time won't go at a glacial pace.

How to calm your dog during Fourth of July fireworks, according to a vet
The Fourth of July may be a celebration for humans, but for dogs, it's often a night of sheer terror. As fireworks light up the sky, the loud bangs and flashing lights can send pets into a panic, leading to trembling, hiding, or even dangerous attempts to escape. Dog owners on TikTok are urging others to take action before the festivities begin, sharing simple tips and tricks that could help keep your furry friend calm this Independence Day. One pet owner, who goes by Calypso the Pit on TikTok, posted a video about the precautions she was taking for her pup, Calypso. The dog mom placed a thick, tight purple sleeve over Calypso's head to trap down her ears. Despite the canine looking less than pleased by the head piece, her owner took it a step further. Next, she put giant blue headphones over the Pitbull's ears to ensure no firework noises were getting through. A veterinary hospital also shared a video with some advice ahead of the summer holiday. It suggested creating a 'safe space' for your pet away from windows and doors. This area can have their bed along with their favorite toys so they feel at their most comfortable. 'It's also important to close curtains and windows to minimize visual and auditory stimulation,' they advised. Keep them occupied by playing with them or having them chew on their favorite treat. To add more serenity to their space, you can play calming music or white noise to drown out the sound of the fireworks. Other pet parents recommended leaving the TV on at a moderate volume to also mask the loud booms. The hospital also suggested getting your pet's energy out before the night festivities begin so they're more likely to be in a calm state. If you know your dog has severe anxiety, you can also talk to your vet about sedation or anxiety medication ahead of the holiday. Many other pet owners also suggested prepping your pets by playing fireworks noises for them from your phone in advance. There are videos on YouTube that you can set to a low volume throughout the day. This allows them to become accustomed to the loud noise and not get as spooked when they hear it on the Fourth. Keeping your dog company and giving them gentle, soothing pets will also put them at ease.
