Bill Belichick's ex-girlfriend Linda Holliday reportedly got into heated confrontation with Jordon Hudson at Nantucket holiday party
The holiday spirit did not apparently stop a tense scene between Bill Belichick's current beau and his ex last December at a Nantucket, Massachusetts party. Linda Holliday confronted Jordon Hudson on the dance floor after asking the organizers of the shindig to remove her from the gathering, TMZ reported on Tuesday night. According to a Dec. 6, 2024, incident report obtained by the outlet, Nantucket Dreamland — a non-profit 'dedicated to enriching the cultural and intellectual life' of the area — said Holliday was irked by Hudson's presence at the event and asked for her removal from the premises. Holliday's daughters, Ashley and Kat Hess, were DJing the 'Stroll Party.' 4 Jordon Hudson during the Miss Maine 2025 pageant. Toby Canham for NY Post 'Ms. Hudson was a paying guest. No concerns had been raised regarding her behavior nor had any issues been reported up until that point in the evening (the event began at 7pm),' a staffer wrote in the incident report, which also said Hudson was there with Miss Massachusetts USA 2024 Melissa Sapini. 'Ms. Holliday felt her presence was inappropriate, since the event was widely advertised as a party headlined by her daughters. She asked that I remove Ms. Hudson from the premises, to which I responded that I would speak with Ms. Hudson after contacting Dreamland executive director Alicia Carney to discuss the matter.' Holliday and two other women, after the request to remove Hudson, then confronted Belichick's girlfriend on the dance floor — where approximately 200 others were — of the event, which the incident report said was confirmed by security footage. Carney said she observed 'threatening body language and escalating aggression' from Holliday and one of the other women with her toward Hudson. The staffer who wrote the report then said Hudson was asked if it was a good idea to be there in the face of the clear 'animosity' toward her, with Hudson responding that she hadn't done anything wrong and was just hoping to be at the 'big party.' 4 Linda Holliday wears a New England Patriots Super Bowl LIII Championship ring necklace on the sidelines before the start of the NFL game between the New England Patriots and the Miami Dolphins at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida on September 15, 2019.

Nevertheless, Hudson said Holliday told Sapini that if she 'valued her current title, she should think twice about who her friends are,' the incident report said before adding that she 'had many powerful friends in the pageant organization.' As Hudson and Sapini exited, Holliday thanked the party staffer, saying the 'momma bear' in her came out because of her daughters' involvement in the festivities. After the event, Holliday shared a series of pictures to Instagram with the caption: 'Another Nantucket Stroll in the books!' The TMZ report comes one day after Page Six reported that Hudson was being 'iced out' while trying to make inroads in the Nantucket social and charity scenes. 'His ex, Linda, is working the philanthropic and social circles and she [Hudson] wants to get more involved,' a Nantucket society source told Page Six. 4 Linda Holliday and Bill Belichick attend the 145th Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs on May 4, 2019. Getty Images for Churchill Downs 'She's trying to claim her stake in the social circle. That is Linda's thing.' Another source told Page Six that 'No one is going to be welcoming [Hudson] with open arms.' It's been weeks of headline-making news for Hudson and her boyfriend, the new coach of the University of North Carolina football. At the end of April, the two caused a stir during Belichick's awkward 'CBS Sunday Morning' interview in which Hudson stopped a question where the coach was asked how he and his girlfriend met. Then came a podcast from ex-ESPNer Pablo Torre, which, among the many claims, said Hudson was no longer welcome in UNC's football facilities. The school later denied that claim. 4 Former NFL head coach Bill Belichick and girlfriend Jordon Hudson, pose on the red carpet at the NFL Honors award show ahead of the Eagles' win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl 59 on Feb. 6, 2025. AP Belichick, while speaking on 'Good Morning America' last week, tried to clarify Hudson's role. 'She's been terrific through the whole process, and she's been really helpful to me,' Belichick said. 'She does the business things that don't relate to North Carolina that come up in my life, so I can concentrate football and that's really what I want to do.' On Tuesday, the New York Times reported that Hudson told at least one person that she and Belichick got engaged. Belichick and Holiday ended things in September 2023 after 16 years together.

She also added the hashtag, "#GeriatricCheerleaderSociety." Hudson was a cheerleader in high school and in college. In said videos, Hudson, 24, did a couple of cheerleading stunts.

"The strength and balance to pull that off are insane! Way to go Jordon!!!" one person wrote. "Stop!! I'm dying geriatric You are so funny !! Love it! You got it!" someone else said.

How on earth are you able to keep your body straight? As he is tossing you around.. The trust you must have! I'm just amazed," a fourth comment read.

"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."
