Jordon Hudson, 24, Says ‘Love Is Not to Be Judged’ in Lengthy Valentine’s Day Post to Boyfriend Bill Belichick, 72

The former cheerleader defends her love for the former NFL coach

Age is just a number, according to Jordon Hudson!

In a Valentine’s Day-themed Instagram post on Friday, Feb. 14, the former cheerleader writes, “Love does not discriminate,”

Hudson, 24, appears to be defending her love for Bill Belichick, 72, the former New England Patriots coach. The pair have dated quietly for the past two years following Belichick’s split from his girlfriend of 16 years, Linda Holliday. 

“ ‘What constitutes love?’ or ‘What makes someone worthy of loving?’ ” Hudson asks in the caption of her Instagram post. “Questions that require a deep analysis and could possibly enable one to understand the romances that they may not understand nor relate to.”

Hudson admitted that she cannot fully answer these questions, but posted bullet points reflecting on “a few of the basic concepts.”

“We do not need to justify 'why' we love a particular person,” Hudson wrote. “The ways in which we develop our biological preferences are deeply personal in which we owe no justification nor explanation.”

She continued with her deep dive into love, “the hot topic of the day.”

“Love does not discriminate against sex, skin-color, religion, age, or ability. Love does not fluctuate along with someone’s body weight,” Hudson wrote.

While Hudson was writing about love, Belichick was reliving football history from 30 years ago in his own Valentine's Day post, which did not mention Hudson at all.

"On Valentine’s Day there is usually a lot of love in the air," Belichick wrote. "30 years ago today, there was not a lot of love in Cleveland when Art Modell decided to move the team and leave me behind."

He is speaking of the late entrepreneur who tried relocating the Cleveland Browns to Baltimore.

"I am not sure if anyone then would’ve cared about my All-Belichick Team. I’m not sure if anyone even cares now. But here is it," Belichick continued. "Thank you Michael Lombardi for helping me curate this list."

The couple reportedly met on a flight from Boston to Florida, where they were seated next to one another in 2021, according to TMZ. The outlet reported that Belichick signed one of Hudson’s textbooks, Deductive Logic.

"Thanks for giving me a course on logic!” he wrote, per a photo obtained by the outlet.

In 2003, Hudson and Belichick were seen together on several occasions once while walking through the French Quarter in New Orleans, and then in September they were seen in the city on a dinner date. Fans posted videos of their sightings on Instagram.

The couple has experienced pushback due to their nearly five-decade age difference, which Hudson alludes to in her Valentine’s Day post.

“Love is not to be judged. It is never okay to harass or abuse a person based upon who they love,” Hudson writes.

Hudson concluded her post with a few hashtags, one of which was #IllWriteABookAboutThisLater.
