Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson enjoyed a date night out in New Orleans!
The 72-year-old football coach and 24-year-old former cheerleader walked the red carpet at the NFL Honors ceremony on Thursday, Feb, 6, ahead of the 2025 Super Bowl.
All eyes were on Hudson, who wore a sparkly silver cutout dress that had a sequin bra top and skirt with a high slit and long train.
Hudson paired the look with ankle-strap heels that matched her accessories, including long earrings. She added a pop of color by wearing a football-shaped purse. For her glam, she parted her hair to one side in soft curls and wore a pink lip.
Belichick, meanwhile, looked dapper in New England Patriots colors. He wore a red blazer over a white collared shirt, a blue tie and black dress pants. He accessorized with his Super Bowl rings. The blazer had the NFL 100 logo, which the league used in 2018 to mark its 100th anniversary.

The couple are no strangers to getting attention, as his date recently said she “couldn’t wait to take punches for” her beau in a New Year’s Eve post on social media addressing commentary about their relationship.
“Nothing changed for us in 2024 except for ‘public knowledge’: yet, somehow everything changed. 4th calendar year; Going strong,” Hudson wrote in a post celebrating 2025 with Belichick. “I can’t wait to take punches for you in 2025. Keep swinging, Keyboard Warriors. Your illusion of righteousness only fuels my authenticity.”

Belichick and Hudson posed for photos on the gala’s red carpet before quickly moving on. And later in the evening, they cozied up while waiting in the pretzel and hot chocolate line, with Hudson rubbing Belichick’s back.
Belichick seemingly got an early start on his Valentine’s Day celebrations with Hudson, surprising her with a luxe bouquet of red roses on Feb. 1.
Hudson shared a photo of the roses on her Instagram Story and wrote, “Behind his stern façade…❤️.”
Hudson and Belichick started seeing each other in early 2023 after his split from Linda Holliday, whom he dated for 16 years. Before that, the former NFL coach was married to Debby Clarke Belichick, with whom he shares three children.
