Bill Belichick faces fresh humiliation after UNC emails about girlfriend Jordon Hudson, 24, are revealed
Despite Bill Belichick 's celebrated arrival at the University of North Carolina and the uproar surrounding his relationship with 24-year-old Jordon Hudson, the new Tar Heels football coach's name was continuously misspelled by school officials in internal emails. Raleigh's WRAL News published a bombshell report Friday after receiving those internal emails in response to a public records request. Much of the discussion centers on the fallout from Belichick's disastrous CBS interview, in which he and Hudson refused to discuss the origin of their widely discussed romance. However, the public records request also revealed an exchange between media relations staffer Brigitta Shouppe and senior associate vice chancellor in the Office of University Communications Beth Keith in which they discussed criticism from an alum. 'Never did I think UNC would become a laughing stock in the sports world because of his young girlfriend,' the UNC grad wrote in an email, as reported by WRAL. Shouppe responded to Keith hours later with a proposed response, albeit one that misspelled Belichick as 'Belichik' throughout. 'Thank you for reaching out, for sharing your views, and for your continued engagement and interest in Carolina,' read the proposed statement. 'Coach Belichik [sic] brings a wealth of experience in coaching and football at the highest levels. The news media has demonstrated an ongoing interest in those previous experiences and activities outside of Kenan Stadium.' Those uncovered emails also lay bare Belichick's attempts to contain negative reaction to that CBS interview, much of which centered on Hudson's role with the team. The school has since clarified that Hudson is not employed at UNC, but remains welcome in the athletic department. 'Jordon and I have both a personal & professional relationship,' Belichick wrote to Keith. 'This is not a secret... Jordon assists me with my personal media, which is why I asked UNC to forward media requests (E.G. CBS 60 Minutes) to her. 'Jordon has zero involvement in the UNC football program, beyond the degree that my personal media intersects with it.' Belichick also explained why his young girlfriend was at the interview, which was organized to promote his new book: 'The Art of Winning: Lessons from My Life in Football.' 'Jordon was present at the CBS interview because David Kass, the Simon & Schuster publicist, was not there,' Belichick claimed. 'I included Jordon in the book acknowledgments because she was a creative contributor to the book, including having the idea for formatting the 4 special pages in the book.'

New emails reveal Bill Belichick's claim that CBS secretly filmed Jordan Hudson during controversial interview
Legendary NFL coach Bill Belichick is reportedly accusing CBS News of filming his 24-year-old girlfriend without her knowledge or consent during his controversial "CBS Sunday Morning" interview in April. The relationship between 24-year-old cheerleader-turned-model Jordon Hudson and Belichick, 73, has raised eyebrows on social media, especially after Hudson refused to reveal how she met the football coach during the CBS interview. "We're not talking about that," she says during the talk. According to WRAL, Belichick wrote in an email that CBS News was "secretly" filming Hudson during his interview. She was reportedly told by the production to sit off-camera, but Belichick believes that she had a camera pointed at her without her knowledge. "Secretly, CBS had a camera focused on Jordon where Lead producer Gabe instructed her to sit," he reportedly wrote in the email, which was obtained by WRAL. He also explained why Hudson gave a curt response to the reporters when they asked how the couple met. "I met Jordon randomly on a flight to Palm Beach in 2021. That is no secret. Jordon was not dodging the specific question regarding how we met, but rather was preventing the interview from continuing to probe into personal matters," the email said. Some commenters weighing in on the drama questioned why Hudson was even present during an interview that was focused on Belichick and his new book. The coach said she came along to help him push the book, and he gave her credit for contributing creatively to the work. "Jordon was present at the CBS interview because David Kass, the Simon & Schuster publicist, was not there," he wrote, referring to the book's publisher. "I included Jordon in the book acknowledgments because she was a creative contributor to the book, including having the idea for formatting the 4 special pages in the book." He elaborated in another email on Hudson's presence in his professional life. According to Belichick, Hudson "assists me with my personal media, which is why I asked UNC to forward media requests (E.G. CBS 60 minutes) to her." "Jordon has zero involvement in the UNC football program, beyond the degree that my personal media intersects with it," he said. Belichick ultimately accused CBS of creating a "false narrative" about himself and Hudson through the use of "selectively edited clips." He also said he instructed his publicist only to book him interviews that exclusively talked about the book, and not his personal life. CBS News has pushed back on Belichick's claims. It issued a statement saying it never agreed to any of the conditions Belichick claims it did. "When we agreed to speak with Mr Belichick, it was for a wide-ranging interview," a CBS spokesperson said at the time. "There were no preconditions or limitations to this conversation. This was confirmed repeatedly with his publisher before the interview took place and after it was completed."

Bill Belichick sheds new light on Jordon Hudson romance in leaked emails after disastrous CBS interview
Bill Belichick 's attempts to defend his relationship with Jordon Hudson and his disastrous interview with CBS have been laid bare in emails that emerged Friday. The legendary NFL coach, 73, is preparing for his first season in college football but his tenure has been so far overshadowed by headlines surrounding his romance with Hudson, 24. A string of explosive reports have emerged over recent weeks, in the wake of a humiliating interview with CBS, when Hudson shut down questions about the start of their relationship. The clip went viral and sparked fresh speculation surrounding Hudson's influence over the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach. One clip of her at UNC practice caused a particular headache for the legendary coach and soon reports emerged that she had been banned from the team's facilities. UNC denied that was the case. Now emails obtained by WRAL detail the fallout from the CBS interview. They show that disgruntled fans felt the relationship was turning the school into a 'laughing stock'. In the emails, however, Belichick defended Hudson and their romance. 'Jordon and I have both a personal & professional relationship,' Belichick wrote to Beth Keith, a senior associate vice chancellor in the Office of University Communications. 'This is not a secret... Jordon assists me with my personal media, which is why I asked UNC to forward media requests (E.G. CBS 60 Minutes) to her. 'Jordon has zero involvement in the UNC football program, beyond the degree that my personal media intersects with it.' He also explained why his young girlfriend was at the interview, which was organized to promote his new book: 'The Art of Winning: Lessons from My Life in Football.' 'Jordon was present at the CBS interview because David Kass, the Simon & Schuster publicist, was not there,' Belichick claimed. 'I included Jordon in the book acknowledgments because she was a creative contributor to the book, including having the idea for formatting the 4 special pages in the book.' According to WRAL News, however, Hudson intended to sit in on the April 21 interview regardless of whether Kass was there. Belichick defended his girlfriend's interruption and accused CBS of setting up a 'secret' camera to capture her input. 'I met Jordon randomly on a flight to Palm Beach in 2021. That is no secret. Jordon was not dodging the specific question regarding how we met, but rather was preventing the interview from continuing to probe into personal matters,' Belichick wrote. The 73-year-old also claimed, per WRAL, that at the start of the interview Hudson asked where she could sit 'off-camera' but 'secretly, CBS had a camera focused on Jordon where Lead producer Gabe (Gabriel Falcon) instructed her to sit.' He added: 'For approximately 35 uninterrupted minutes, (CBS host Tony Dokoupil) asked questions about the book... then, the questions shifted to other subjects that were not related to the Art of Winning, which we had outlined as off-limits with my book publicist.' WRAL also revealed an email from a disgruntled UNC fan and former student who said they have 'never felt compelled to write a letter to our leadership, until now. I'm writing in response to the actions taken by Bill Belichick and his 24 year old girlfriend.'

Bill Belichick-Jordon Hudson drama revealed in new emails
Emails obtained by WRAL show Bill Belichick addressing the controversy over his romantic and professional relationship with Jordon Hudson. The relationship between the legendary coach and the 24-year-old model has drawn national scrutiny after a controversial "CBS Sunday Morning" interview. Hudson declared, "We're not talking about that" when Belichick was asked about how the couple met. Belichick claimed in one email that CBS "secretly" had a camera focused on Hudson despite the model requesting to sit off camera. "Secretly, CBS had a camera focused on Jordon where Lead producer Gabe instructed her to sit," Belichick reportedly wrote. Belichick elaborated on why the question of how they met was not answered. "I met Jordon randomly on a flight to Palm Beach in 2021. That is no secret. Jordon was not dodging the specific question regarding how we met, but rather was preventing the interview from continuing to probe into personal matters," the email said. Belichick also addressed why Hudson was present at the interview to begin with. He believed the interview would be focused on his book, "The Art of Winning: Lessons from a Life in Football." "Jordon was present at the CBS interview because David Kass, the Simon & Schuster publicist, was not there," Belichick wrote, referring to the publisher of his book. "I included Jordon in the book acknowledgments because she was a creative contributor to the book, including having the idea for formatting the 4 special pages in the book." In another email, Belichick addressed reports that he requested to have Hudson copied on every email sent to him. "Jordon and I have both a personal & professional relationship," Belchick wrote in the email. "This is not a secret. Jordon assists me with my personal media, which is why I asked UNC to forward media requests (E.G. CBS 60 Minutes) to her. Jordon has zero involvement in the UNC football program, beyond the degree that my personal media intersects with it." Belichick released a statement saying he was "surprised" about getting the questions about his relationship and that when Hudson had stepped in, she was doing her job. He went on to accuse CBS of creating a "false narrative" with so-called "selectively edited clips." CBS responded, disagreeing with Belichick's version of events. In a separate interview with ESPN, Belichick insisted Hudson is not involved with UNC football. Follow Fox News Digital's sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Stressed Bill Belichick seen drenched in sweat with Jordon Hudson after rushing through airport to catch flight
Bill Belichick got so hot and flustered during a race to make a flight to Las Vegas on Wednesday that he was sweating through his clothes. Pictures obtained by Daily Mail show the six-time Super Bowl winner and 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson stood at their gate after sprinting through the terminal at Charlotte Douglas International airport. The couple were hoping to make a plane from North Carolina to Las Vegas but their efforts had left Belichick, 73, drenched in sweat. The pictures show the UNC coach and his younger girlfriend talking to a member of airline staff with a huge sweat patch all the way down his back. Unfortunately, he had chosen to wear a light grey hoodie which meant his perspiration could be clearly seen from distance. Belichick was obviously tense as he was seen arriving at the gate at 6:58am, just 16 minutes before his flight to Las Vegas was due to depart. Witnesses also claim that Belichick hadn't even had time to put on his socks, such was the rush he found himself in. Fortunately for the couple, they were allowed to board their flight. They even packed some extremely sparkly luggage as Hudson posted a picture of them wearing their respective championship rings. Tagging their location as Las Vegas, one of Belichick's Super Bowl rings and Hudson's cheerleading equivalent were both front and center of the picture. The purpose of their trip was to attend the grand opening of Tom Brady's Hall of Excellence museum at the Fontainebleau in Sin City. Two days later, Hudson posted a picture of her soaking up the sun in a bikini in California. She was lying on a sunbed with a cocktail in hand and plenty of delicious food next to her. Earlier this week she took a sly jab at Belichick 's ex partner, Linda Holliday, in a sentimental Instagram post, where she name-dropped 'Nantucket Socialites'. Hudson's post was primarily about Melissa Sapini, last year's Miss Massachusetts who relinquished her title this week to the new winner, with Hudson paying tribute to her friend's time on top on Tuesday. The long, sappy post included a jab at Holliday near the bottom, after Hudson gave Sapini tons of shout-outs. 'I know you will keep shining, metamorphosing and taking up space; even when others threaten you and insist that you don't belong, e.g. the "Nantucket Socialites"' Hudson said. Hudon's jab is in reference to an incident where Holliday did not like Hudson and Sapini coming to a certain Nantucket Christmas party late last year. Belichick, 73, and Holliday, 61, broke up in September 2023 after 16 years together. He met Hudson on a flight from Boston to Florida in 2021.
