Bill Belichick’s girlfriend Jordon Hudson appears to have a type.

Belichick’s relationship with the 24-year-old former competitive cheerleader Hudson has made headlines of late. Considering the couple’s 48-year age difference, it’s no surprise the pairing has drawn mixed reactions from people online.

The former New England Patriots coach apparently isn’t the first much older man that Hudson has dated. Hudson “became romantic” with 64-year-old businessman Joshua L. Zuckerman not long before she got together with Belichick, Zuckerman recently told TMZ Sports.

Zuckerman shared that he met Hudson “several years ago” and the two bonded over “psychology, philosophy, and nature.” It sounds plausible that Hudson met Zuckerman when she was still a teenager or after having just turned 20.

Hudson seems to be an old soul who enjoys the company of men a few generations older than her. Zuckerman referred to her as a woman who is “wise beyond her years.”

Zuckerman’s experience with Hudson lines up with her reported first meeting with Belichick. Belichick and Hudson met on a plane ride in 2021 and bonded over a philosophy project she was working on. The two stayed in touch after the serendipitous encounter.

Hudson and Belichick have been spotted together in public several times over the last few years. The couple reportedly began their romance in 2022 after the Super Bowl-winning coach ended his relationship with ex-girlfriend Linda Holliday.
