Jordon Hudson has been a hot topic for quite some time now — and not just because of her crown as a pageant queen.
Over the past year, she’s found herself at the center of a whirlwind of attention thanks to her highly publicized relationship with football legend Bill Belichick.
With a 49-year age gap between them, their romance has sparked plenty of curiosity and controversy.
But with everything going on, how is Hudson really holding up?
Her former boss recently gave some insight into how she’s coping behind the scenes — and it seems like she’s managing to keep things as normal as possible despite the spotlight.
Staying Under the Radar Despite the Spotlight
Hudson, who is 24, has always been pretty private about her personal life, especially when it comes to her relationship with the 73-year-old NFL icon.
Even though the media keeps buzzing about her and Belichick, she’s kept most of the details to herself, away from the public eye — and even from some people close to her.
Her old employer, Dougie Freeman, who runs a hair salon in Provincetown, told The Athletic that he still stays in touch with her.
Freeman affectionately calls her his “most famous employee.”
When asked about how she’s doing, he said, “She seems to be doing fine.”
He also shared a sweet moment where Hudson was aware of a profile piece being done on her by The Washington Post, and he assured her the article was kind and positive.
Roots in Provincetown and Early Career
Hudson’s journey started long before the headlines.
She began working at Freeman’s salon back when she was still in high school, offering henna and hairstyling services.
The salon itself has been a fixture in Provincetown — a town famous for its vibrant LGBTQ+ community, often dubbed “the gayest town in America.”
Her family moved there from Hancock, Maine, in 2010, settling into this unique coastal town that’s far from the big-city buzz but somehow connected to the world through stories like hers.
The Age Gap That Shocked the World
The relationship between Hudson and Belichick stunned many, largely because of their nearly five-decade age difference.
But it’s not just the age gap that’s grabbed attention — it’s also how deeply involved Hudson appears to be in Belichick’s professional life.
This became even more of a talking point after Belichick’s awkward CBS interview made waves, casting questions on just how much influence Hudson has in his day-to-day work.
Last month, podcaster Pablo Torre stirred the pot further by claiming Hudson was banned from University of North Carolina football facilities, where Belichick coaches.
Although UNC denied this, they confirmed Hudson manages activities related to Belichick’s personal brand outside of the school.
Controversies and Social Media Clashes
The drama escalated when Torre released footage showing a shirtless Belichick leaving an Airbnb following a trip with Hudson in 2023.
The Airbnb owners shared some eyebrow-raising impressions — they reportedly suspected Belichick might be involved in shady business, while Hudson was rumored to be an escort.
The female host even claimed Hudson made a crude sexual joke about Belichick when they first met.
Unsurprisingly, Hudson pushed back hard on social media, calling Torre’s reports “slander” and “defamation.”
In a now-deleted Instagram story screenshot, she slammed the podcast host for spreading “factually incorrect” and “targeted” misinformation, urging followers to stop giving him credibility.
Behind the Scenes at the Airbnb
The Airbnb host’s audio clip shared by Torre added another layer to the story.
The woman explained she tried to chat with Hudson upon arrival and described a bizarre conversation about golf clubs and pageants — including Hudson’s preference for a “men’s senior shaft” when playing golf.
The whole exchange gave off a strange vibe, fueling more gossip about their unusual relationship dynamic.
If you want to know what’s next for Hudson and Belichick, it seems like this story is far from over.
But for now, it’s clear that Hudson is trying to keep her balance amid the chaos, leaning on old connections and staying guarded about her private life.
