Bill Belichick’s ex-girlfriend’s links to Jordon Hudson’s rival at Miss Maine beauty pageant revealed

Bill Belichick's ex-girlfriend's links to Jordon Hudson's rival at Miss Maine beauty pageant revealed

It appears that Linda Holliday, Bill Belichick’s ex-girlfriend, was keeping a close eye on the Miss Maine beauty pageant this weekend.

Belichick himself made a high-profile appearance across both days of the event with the 73-year-old NFL legend supporting his 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson, who finished in third place.

The event garnered huge attention, with it being one of Hudson’s first public appearances since going viral for interrupting Belichick’s excruciating CBS interview when he was asked about how he met Hudson.

And it seems Holliday was watching from afar, too, given she appears to have a connection to Anne Baldridge, one of Hudson’s compeтιтors. Baldridge was crowned Miss Maine in 2024, the year Hudson finished in second place.

Holliday, who split with Belichick in 2023 after 16 years together, follows Baldridge on Instagram and also follows the Miss Maine Instagram page. Holliday has liked several posts by Baldridge, who is not followed by Hudson.

Holliday also left Baldridge a message of support in late November when she announced the heartbreaking news about the death of her grandmother.

Baldridge described her grandmother as ‘a piece of my heart… she was my mother figure, my best friend, my biggest supporter.’

Holliday commented on the post: ‘I’m so sorry Anne. Sending love and prayers.’ 

That was in late November, and days later Holliday sent a cryptic message out on social media on the same day that Belichick was announced as the new University of North Carolina coach.

Alongside a caption which read ‘I don’t know who needs to hear this today but it’s so accurate’, she reposted a mindfulness picture.

In the graphic, there are two sections: ‘In my control’ and ‘out of my control’.

Seemingly, Holliday was trying to remind herself that ‘the actions of others’ and ‘what happens around me’ are out of her control, while she is able to control ‘how I move on from failures’ and ‘my mindset’, among other things.

Shortly after Belichick and Holliday split, the NFL icon began dating cheerleader Hudson, who he had previously met in 2021 when they sat next to each other on a plane. 

Belichick was pictured on Sunday sat alongside Hudson’s father, Heath, as they watched Hudson compete in the final day of the pageant. It was the first time Belichick had been seen with Hudson’s family.

After Hudson’s place as second runner-up – essentially third place – was confirmed, she told the audience:  ‘I’m feeling an immense amount of pride right now.

‘I’m hoping that anybody who’s watching this finds the strength to push through whatever it is that they’re going through and embodies that hate never wins.’

Belichick is giving an interview to former NFL player Michael Strahan on Good Morning America, which will be broadcast on Friday.
