New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and ex-girlfriend Linda Holliday apparently remain on good terms, roughly a year after their breakup.

Several weeks ago, multiple outlets reported that Bill Belichick is in a relationship with 24-year-old Jordon Hudson, a former competitive cheerleader. Belichick and Holliday broke up last year after 16 years together.

Despite Belichick’s new romance, it appears as though he and Holliday remain on good terms as friends. According to a report from Emma James of the Daily Mail, Holliday is actually living in Belichick’s newly purchased $4.8 million luxury home in Nantucket, Massachusetts

The Daily Mail obtained photos of Holliday walking the Husky, Nike, that she shared with Belichick during their time together. The outlet claims that Holliday moved into the home late in June, but she stayed tight-lipped about the living situation after being approached by the Daily Mail for comment:

“You don’t even know if you have the facts,” Holliday told them. “There is nothing to say, I am not part of this story. I’m not any part of this.”


Before his relationship with Holliday, Belichick was married to Debby Clarke from 1977 to 2006. Belichick and Clarke couple had a daughter, Amanda, and sons Brian and Stephen together.

Though Belichick prefers to keep a low profile with his personal life, Holliday frequently posted about their life outside of football on social media. Holliday remains the president of the Bill Belichick Foundation, another sign that they’re still on good terms.

Bill Belichick Will Be Busy With Media Work This Year

Many were surprised when Belichick was passed over in the 2024 NFL head coaching hiring cycle. The Atlanta Falcons were the only team to interview Belichick, but they wound up hiring Raheem Morris for the HC position.

But Belichick will not be out of the football spotlight this year. The six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach will appear on “InsideThe NFL”, “The Pat McAfee Show” and “The ManningCast” while also running his own program, “Underdog Fantasy.”

2024 will mark the first NFL season without Belichick employed as a coach since 1974. He began his coaching career with the Baltimore Colts as a special assistant in 1975.
