Bill Belichick and his girlfriend Jordan Hudson caught a lot of attention with their couples costume this year. The legendary NFL coach, 72, dressed as a fisherman, while his girlfriend, 24, sported a mermaid costume for Halloween. The photos they took in their costumes were even more elaborate than the costumes themselves. On Instagram, Jordan shared two images of her and Bill at the beach.
In the photos, Jordan, dressed in a beaded seashell top and a mermaid fin, sat along the shore laughing while Bill appeared to catch her with his fishing rod. “Ouucchhhh!!! 🪝,” the former cheerleader captioned her Instagram post.
Although some people who commented on the post loved the costume idea and the accompanying photos, others paid more attention to the couple’s age gap.
“Father and daughter? 😂,” one person commented on the post.
Another person wrote, “Yooooo that’s someone’s grandpa 🤣💀.”
Leading up to Halloween, Jordan wore a different Halloween costume, and though Bill wasn’t exactly part of it, he was clearly her muse. Per TMZ, Jordan went to Disney World to celebrate a friend’s engagement, and she and her friends all wore costumes.

For that occasion, Jordan chose to wear a Bill Belichick costume. Wearing short white shorts and a New York Giants shirt, Bill’s girlfriend appeared to take inspiration from his time with the New York Giants. Though Bill and Jordan’s relationship was confirmed in June 2024, according to People, they reportedly started dating more than a year before that.
The couple first met on a flight in 2021, according to TMZ. At the time, Jordan was a college student and Bill asked her about the homework she was working on during their flight, TMZ reported. Bill autographed Jordan’s Deductive Logic textbook, writing, “Thanks for giving me a course on logic! Safe travels!”
After Bill and his former longtime girlfriend, Linda Holliday, split up, the NFL coach was spotted with Jordan on multiple occasions.
On September 4, 2024, Jordan welcomed her boyfriend to Instagram. She shared a photo of her and Bill petting a goat and captioned it, “This is my formal petition for @BillBelichick to change his handle to @ BillyGoat !! Welcome to the ‘Gram, Billy!!!!”
Bill commented on the post, writing, “I will leave the “Billy-Goat-ing” to @bill.t.goat at the @usnavalacademy . Thanks for the warm reception, J!”
