Speculation is swirling around Bill Belichick and his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, after she was spotted wearing a notable ring on her left hand. The couple was seen walking in New Orleans, fueling engagement rumors. However, it remains unclear if the former New England Patriots coach has proposed.
Hudson was photographed wearing a sparkling ring while strolling with Belichick over Super Bowl 2025 weekend, who is now the head football coach at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The images, shared online, captured her donning a long-sleeved Atlanta Falcons shirt, which also caught fans' attention.
Fans quickly took to social media to comment on the potential engagement and the appearance of the ring. On Instagram, one user questioned the ring's origin, “Did he get that at Claire's?”
Another responded, “Right? Its as tacky as that dress she wore [sic].” Others also criticized her accessories, with one remarking, “These nails and rings are offensive.”
More Instagram users continued to shared their thoughts, with one expressing disbelief, “Wait ??? She is in her 20's??? Seriously [sic]?” Another added, “That is insane. I thought he was smart.”
Meanwhile, Facebook users focused on the couple's age difference. One person commented, “Wait what engagement to ur granddaughter [sic]!” while another simply noted, “Looks like his granddaughter.”
Meanwhile, reactions on X (formerly Twitter) followed a similar theme, with one netizen deeming the ring, “Not big enough.”
Speculation over the ring has intensified as jewelry experts analyzed its design and possible value. Rustin Yasavolian, CEO of Masina Diamonds in Marietta, Georgia, estimated that the piece features a pink diamond weighing between five to seven carats.
“Considering the rarity of pink diamonds, the price point for the diamond alone is most likely over $1,000,000,” he told Daily Mail.
Yasavolian described the ring as a “pear-shaped or custom-cut pink diamond set in an asymmetrical wave-shaped custom-made setting with a pave diamond shank.”
He also noted that it resembles the “Toi et Moi” engagement ring trend, which means “you and me” in French and is known for its sentimental symbolism. “While it is a show-stopper of a statement piece, it certainly does appear to be an engagement ring,” he added.
However, Austin Willard, founder of Faithful Platform Fine Jewelry & Engagement Ring, offered a different perspective. He told Daily Mail that the design looks “more like a cocktail-style ring,” suggesting it may not necessarily indicate an engagement.
Following the Super Bowl, Belichick and Hudson were seen leaving the Superdome after Philadelphia's 40-22 victory over Kansas City. When approached with questions about the engagement rumors, the couple declined to comment. According to TMZ, neither of them confirmed nor denied the speculation.
Just days before the Super Bowl, Belichick and Hudson made another public appearance at the 14th Annual NFL Honors in New Orleans on February 6, 2025. Their presence at the event drew strong reactions online, further fueling discussions about their relationship.
For the event, Bill Belichick sported a classic and sophisticated ensemble, wearing a deep red blazer over a white dress shirt paired with a dark navy tie. He completed the look with black dress pants, polished black shoes, and huge rings on his fingers.
Hudson, on the other hand, stunned in a dazzling silver gown that featured a daringly high slit and a sparkling, form-fitting silhouette. The dress included a shimmering bandeau-style top, revealing her toned abs and adding a glamorous, red-carpet-ready allure.
She paired the outfit with strappy silver heels, loose waves in her hair, and makeup that emphasized her striking features. Social media users who saw images of the pair wasted no time asserting their opinions, especially concerning the couple's age gap.
“he [sic] brought his granddaughter,” remarked a Facebooker, while another echoed, “He's old enough to be her grandfather.”
Similar comments ensued with yet another observer asserting, “three [sic] times his age, must be love for sure.” Many made comments about the pair's attire as well. “She's barely dressed,” opined a netizen.
Another added, “Does she think it's bathing suit season? Have some@class [sic],” while someone else said, “They're dressed like a dealer at a casino and a showgirl.”
“Does he have rings on his toes as well [sic],” pondered an Instagrammer. Another noted, “Those rings look heavy..” “Look at his rings 😂😂😂 this is so weird,” highlighted yet another spectator. While the comments made about the couple were prominent, public discourse about their relationship is nothing new.
On December 31, 2024, Hudson took to Instagram Stories with a New Year's toast alongside the football coach, offering a rare, pointed response to their critics.
“Cheers!!! To our third midnight's kiss,” captioned Hudson on a photo of the couple clinking champagne flutes as they rang in 2025 together. Below the celebratory image, she added a more direct message, hinting at the scrutiny they've faced since their relationship became widely known.
“Nothing changed for us in 2024 except for ‘public knowledge': yet, somehow everything changed. 4th calendar year; Going strong,” she wrote.
Hudson didn't stop there. In a defiant sign-off, she challenged detractors who continue to criticize their romance. “I can't wait to take punches for you in 2025. Keep swinging, Keyboard Warriors. Your illusion of righteousness only fuels my authenticity,” she declared.
The Instagram Story also included a candid shot of Belichick holding his phone, displaying the lyrics “Hold on to the memories” from Taylor Swift's song “New Year's Day”—a subtle yet sentimental nod to their time together.
According to Page Six, the pair's relationship first made headlines in June 2024, shortly after Belichick's split from his longtime partner, TV correspondent Linda Holliday. Though the exact timeline of when Belichick and Hudson began dating remains unclear, reports suggest his breakup with Holliday had been in the works for nearly a year before it was finalized.
Since stepping into the public eye as a couple, Hudson has continued to share glimpses of their romance, including a playful Halloween post where they dressed as a mermaid and a fisherman. While Hudson has openly expressed her devotion to Belichick, she isn't the only one reinforcing the strength of their relationship.
A source close to the couple, deemed an insider by People magazine, echoed similar sentiments last year (2024), assuring that their bond remains solid despite their demanding schedules.
According to the insider, Belichick has been fully invested in his latest career move, stepping into a coaching role at UNC-Chapel Hill following his legendary tenure with the New England Patriots. They also pointed out that Hudson has an equally packed schedule, making it clear that both partners are highly driven individuals.
“But Jordon is also a busy woman with a lot going on. So I don't see this doing anything but enhancing their solid relationship,” the source affirmed.
Belichick and Hudson first made their red carpet debut in December 2024 at The American Museum of Natural History's 2024 Museum Gala. Stepping out together for the high-profile event, the couple posed confidently for photographers.
The former New England Patriots coach embraced a formal look for the occasion, donning a black tuxedo paired with a crisp white dress shirt and a black bow tie.
Hudson made a statement in a stunning black off-the-shoulder gown that exuded both glamour and sophistication. The form-fitting dress featured a high thigh slit adorned with silver embellishments, adding a bold touch to her ensemble.
She accessorized with strappy silver heels and a small black clutch. Her sleek waves and bold red lipstick completed the elegant look.
As Belichick and Hudson continue to navigate public attention, one thing remains certain—the legendary coach has no plans of slowing down.
