Bill Belichick, 72, and his 23-year-old girlfriend are going strong, allegedly influencing his decision to retire.
On Tuesday, sources spoke with The U.S. Sun about Belichick and his girlfriend, Jordan Hudson. According to the insiders, the former New England Patriots head coach is “living his best life.”
“This is another shot at youthfulness,” a former Patriots colleague told the outlet.
One of the sources noted that after “years of making the Pats his priority,” Belichick is now enjoying the “simple things in life.”
“I don’t know if he is looking to go back to coaching again, I may be wrong, but I think that he is realizing that there is more in life than just football,” the insider added.
Additionally, sources say they have also been witnessing a “refreshing” side of Belichick.
“I see this going far,” he admitted.
Sources Open Up About Bill Belichick’s Relationship With 23-Year-Old Girlfriend
Sources might be right about Belichick and Hudson’s relationship going far, considering the cheerleader is reportedly now living with the former coach, moving into his Massachusetts home just a few months ago.
“She loves his jokes,” another of Belichick’s friends added. “You can see the connection. They are a solid duo, two peas in a pod.”
He added that Belicheck “doesn’t care” what anyone thinks about his relationship with Hudson. Meanwhile, Hudson’s ex-boyfriend, Joshua L. Zuckerman, 64, defended her new relationship with Belichick.
In an interview with TMZ, Zuckerman stated that Hudson “is wise beyond her years, much more than any 20-something I’ve ever met in my life.”
Additionally, “The narrative about her character is not fair to her.”
Furthermore, “I’ve been getting calls left and right from news stations about my relationship with Jordon Hudson,” Zuckerman continued. “I have been involved with Jordon platonically and romantically and I consider her a good friend. I feel bad that she’s caught up in this whirlwind.”
As for Belichick, he appears to be “living his best life” with Hudson — and doesn’t seem too worried about coaching.
“To be honest, I don’t think he would be frustrated if he doesn’t get a coaching job again,” sources said. “When you have a simple life, and someone you like spending time with, it’s tough to interrupt that dynamic.”
