Bill Belichick’s Ex Was ’Shocked’ About Jordon Hudson Video: ‘Had No Idea'

Bill Belichick’s ex-girlfriend, Linda Holliday, had a strong reaction to seeing a video of Belichick with Jordon Hudson for the first time. 

Belichick, 73, and Hudson, 24, were spotted walking together in New Orleans in January 2023. 

Not only was it the first instance of the decorated football head coach and the much-younger Hudson being seen together, the video went viral when Belichick and Holliday, 62, were still dating. 

“Linda was shocked,” a friend of Holliday’s told The New Yorker in a piece published this week. “She had no idea there was another girl.”

Belichick and Holliday split in September 2023 after 16 years of dating. 

Hudson and Belichick made their relationship official in October 2024 after months of speculation. 

The paths of Hudson and Holliday infamously crossed in December 2024, when the two women attended the same holiday party in Nantucket where Holliday’s daughters, Ashley and Kat Hess (a.k.a. The Hess Twins), were DJing.

According to an incident report obtained by TMZ Sports in May, Hudson was asked to leave the party after an alleged confrontation on the dance floor. 

“No punches were thrown, no hair was pulled,” Holliday’s friend, author Elin Hilderbrand, told The New Yorker. “But we did suggest she leave because we thought it was grossly inappropriate for her to be there.” 

Hilderbrand, who was also in attendance at the December party, added, “Bill and Linda were together since the girls were, like, 14 years old, and they thought of him as a father figure.”

Per the incident report, “Ms. Holliday felt [Hudson’s] presence was inappropriate, since the event was widely advertised as a party headlined by her daughters.”

After Hudson was asked to leave, Holliday and Hilderbrand were seen on security cameras using “threatening body language and escalating aggression” toward Hudson on the party’s dance floor.

Hudson was joined at the event by her friend and reigning Miss Massachusetts, Melissa Sapini. Sapini “did not appear to be involved in the conversation and was standing several feet away watching the interaction unfold.”

“When I approached Ms. Hudson, Ms. Hilderbrand, Holliday and [Hilderbrand’s sister Heather] Thorpe saw me and backed away while I spoke to Ms. Hudson,” the report continued. “Not understanding the origin of the previous conversation at that point, I asked Ms. Hudson if she thought it was a good idea to be there considering the clear animosity the above individuals felt towards her.”

Despite Hudson arguing she had done “nothing wrong,” she and Sapini eventually agreed to leave the venue with seven minutes remaining in the party.
