Whoopi Goldberg shrugs off Bill Belichick’s rumored engagement as she mocks age-gap drama live on The View in New York City

Sometimes a celebrity story just doesn’t land—and Whoopi Goldberg made that crystal clear on The View when talk turned to NFL coaching legend Bill Belichick and his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson.

While the internet buzzed over rumors of their engagement and a dramatic party incident, Whoopi made it known: she couldn’t care less.

A Story That Didn’t Spark Whoopi’s Interest

During Thursday’s episode, the 69-year-old co-host barely managed to muster interest as the segment kicked off.

The topic? Belichick’s much younger girlfriend supposedly causing a stir at a holiday party—one hosted by Belichick’s ex, Linda Holliday, and DJ’d by Holliday’s 33-year-old twin daughters.

As Sarah Haines tried to lay out the drama, Whoopi sat back and delivered a sarcastic jab: “Hold on, let me get my pillow.” That pretty much set the tone.

Hudson Reportedly Booted from the Party

According to the story, Jordon Hudson showed up uninvited at a December holiday party in Nantucket—an event tied closely to Holliday and her daughters.

The kicker? Belichick wasn’t even there.

The vibe at the party apparently soured fast once Hudson showed up, and tensions reached a boiling point.

“She was asked to leave,” Haines explained, noting that Hudson brushed off the request by saying, “It’s a party, I can be here.”

Was It Social Climbing or Something Deeper?

Co-host Alyssa Farrah Griffin chimed in, saying she’s “way too invested” in the story.

She added that Hudson attending the party felt like an attempt at social climbing—although not quite as intense as Single White Female behavior. That said, the optics weren’t great.

As the segment continued, Sunny Hostin brought a more reflective take.

She opened up about how, after her parents’ divorce, she was terrible to anyone her parents dated.

But now, as an adult, she just wants them to find companionship.

Would You Be Okay With Your Parent Dating a 24-Year-Old?

Hostin went a step further and said she wouldn’t necessarily be bothered if her father dated someone Hudson’s age—if that person made him happy.

“I’m not talking about party crashing,” she clarified, but explained that happiness matters more to her now.

That led to Goldberg once again breaking in with sarcasm: “Wait, let me get my pillow ready!” making it obvious she wasn’t feeling the sentimental shift in the convo.

Joy Behar’s Joke Wakes Whoopi Up

The conversation wrapped with Joy Behar cracking a joke about Hudson possibly being a “kidney match” for Belichick, which finally made Whoopi stir from her chair—where she had been dramatically slouched like she was napping.

Was she actually asleep? Hard to say. But given the amount of pillow talk and her complete lack of interest, it may not have been far from the truth.

What Really Happened at the Party?

Reports say the awkward December 6th encounter at Nantucket’s Christmas Stroll event was pretty uncomfortable.

Holliday was reportedly furious Hudson showed up at a party that felt like family territory.

One employee asked Hudson directly if she thought attending was appropriate.

According to the incident report, Hudson insisted she had done nothing wrong and was just attending her first Christmas Stroll event, excited for the “big party”—which, unfortunately for her, happened to be that party.

At the End of the Day, Whoopi’s Not Losing Sleep Over It

Whether Hudson and Belichick are really engaged or just enjoying each other’s company, it seems Whoopi Goldberg is more likely to fall asleep mid-convo than weigh in with a hot take.

And honestly, given all the complicated social layers in this story—maybe she has the right idea.
