She’s calling all the plays.
Sources tell Page Six that Bill Belichick’s much younger girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, 24, has taken over more than just his heart — and is running the legendary 73-year-old coach’s “brand.”
Unfortunately, it seems that neither have any clue what they’re doing.
“It’s amateur hour and it’s showing,” says the source. “They don’t know what they are doing and trying to control everything. They don’t trust anyone else. He’s handed off the ball to her.”
The pair recently made headlines for an uncomfortable “CBS Sunday Morning” interview, when Hudson abruptly cut off reporter Tony Dokoupil’s question asking how the May-December pair met.
We’re told the issue is her lack of experience, and that she allegedly refuses to listen to anyone with expertise.
“He seems to have put his brand in the hands of a 24-year-old,” the source alleges. “She thinks she knows everything, like every other 24-year-old.”
Our insider noted that Hudson was not alive when Belichick led the New England Patriots to a Super Bowl victory in New Orleans in the wake of 9/11.
“She is a constant presence,” says the source. “She is CEO of Belichick Inc. and wears every hat in the organization.”
While Hudson is certainly the driving force behind Belichick’s business endeavors, a source tells us that he is no push-over.
“When he wants, he does speak up,” says the source.
We are also told that when it comes to their age gap, “When you are around them it is not crazy creepy.”
“They are individually a little odd, but together they strangely make sense. It’s not icky when they are together. There is a charm to their relationship.”
Page Six recently revealed that Hudson “demanded” to be an executive producer on the famed football coach’s now-scrapped season of the docuseries “Hard Knocks,” according to sources.
The project, which was reportedly shelved after just two days, was supposed to focus on his first season as head football coach at the University of North Carolina
An insider familiar with the NFL Films project told us that the former cheerleader wanted to see dailies and allegedly told execs to treat her with respect or they wouldn’t get to use the coach’s “IP.”
Sources also told Page Six that she forced her way into the Dunkin Donuts ad that ran during the Super Bowl which featured Hudson, Belichick, Ben Affleck and brother Casey Affleck.
A sports source told Page Six, “She forced her way in…. but Bill saw it as a way for her to get paid. People said they’ve never seen anything like it.”
Last month it was reported that Hudson’s company, Trouble Cub Enterprises, filed for 14 trademarks to reclaim various phrases coined by the coach which are currently owned by his former team, the New England Patriots.
She has also reportedly amassed a whopping $8M real estate portfolio since they started dating three years ago.
A recent online job ad for a media assistant at her business Trouble Cub describes the company as “an East Coast based holding company for a complex portfolio of businesses across a wide range of industries including cosmetics, real estate, media production, merchandising, creative consultation, business strategy, and investment.”
The pair — who met on a plane — are still dealing with the fallout from last week’s “CBS Sunday Morning” interview with Belichick and the show sparring through statements.
Belichick defended Hudson in a statement Wednesday, saying his expectation was to only discuss his new book “The Art of Winning: Lessons from My Life in Football,” in the interview.
“I was surprised when unrelated topics were introduced, and I repeatedly expressed to the reporter, Tony Dokoupil, and the producers that I preferred to keep the conversation centered on the book,” he said, insisting that Hudson was “not deflecting any specific question or topic but simply doing her job to ensure the interview stayed on track.”
CBS fired back in a subsequent statement of its own, saying, “There were no preconditions or limitations to this conversation. This was confirmed repeatedly with his publisher [Simon & Schuster] before the interview took place and after it was completed.”
