Bill Belichick's 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, enters Miss Maine USA pageant
Jordon Hudson is hoping to become Maine's main event. The 24-year-old girlfriend of legendary NFL coach Bill Belichick, 72, is set to compete for the crown of Miss Maine USA. Hudson, a former college cheerleader, made the announcement Tuesday on Instagram – which just happened to be International Pageant Day. 'Happy International Pageant Day!' she wrote in the caption of her post. 'I couldn't think of a better day to share with the world that I will be competing for Miss Maine USA 2025; representing my hometown Hancock.' Hudson posted two photos of herself glammed up as Miss Hancock USA – one in a stunning green dress with her sash and another closeup of herself donning the crown with a mesh-like purple fabric. Her tiny hometown has a population of just 2,466 according to the 2020 U.S. census and is located on the Atlantic coast, southeast of Bangor. This will be Hudson's second stab at the crown after finishing as the first runner-up in the 2024 contest. She had been teasing followers on social media for the past few weeks that she was training to once again put on her pageant heels. She also had posted a snap of herself with Former Miss North Carolina Jennifer Lloyd and current Miss Massachusetts USA Melissa Sapini, with Hudson's caption calling herself the 'future Miss Maine.' Should Hudson emerge victorious from the competition – which takes place May 10-11 – she could then go on to compete in Miss USA 2025 later this year. Bill Belichick's girlfriend says she's 'popping' his 'cherry' in recent post Marriage could be in cards for Bill Belichick and 24-year-old girlfriend, but what about a prenup? Many have speculated if Belichick – who is in his first year as head coach of the University of North Carolina football team – will show up to support his girlfriend at the competition. The eight-time Super Bowl champion and architect of the New England Patriots dynasty has been spotted behind the scenes at Hudson's cheerleading competitions in the past. Since becoming official last June, Belichick and Hudson have been in the public spotlight. The couple – who have an age-difference of 48 years – were spotted at several events during Super Bowl weekend in New Orleans this year and made an appearance in a Dunkin Donuts ad airing during the big game. Hudson sparked engagement rumours earlier this year after an Instagram post celebrated the couple's 'meetiversary.' She shared a picture of their hands together, with Belichick's hand on her hip at a Super Bowl event, highlighted by his Super Bowl baubles and her own rings – a championship ring from her collegiate cheerleading days and another that appeared to be fairly new and featured a diamond. She also was spotted wearing the new diamond ring at several events while they were in New Orleans. In the caption to the post, Hudson celebrated meeting the coach four years ago by reflecting on their first encounter. 'February 11th, 2025 (arrow emoji) February 11th, 2021,' she captioned the Instagram post on Tuesday. 'Happy Meetiversary @billbelichick – Cheers to the fact that you still let me give you lengthy philosophical lectures four years later.'
