“She’s making him happy, he’s making her happy, and that’s the most important thing,” a source told The US Sun.
“He likes simple things and she is the perfect person for him, as she has the same type of preference for this lifestyle.
“It’s a very solid duo, they really enjoy what they’re doing and I see it going far.”
Belichick met the 24-year-old during a plane ride from Boston to Florida in 2021.

Sources reported that Belichick took an interest in the school work Hudson was working on at the time and they hit it off from there.
The couple reportedly talked about Hudson’s Deductive Logic book and Belichick signed the book for her.
Their relationship only came to light in recent months.
But after going public, their romance has blossomed ever since, with the pair spotted on July 4th enjoying a picturesque bike ride around Nantucket.

The couple were also spotted wearing matching rings on their left index fingers, fueling speculation that their relationship was becoming more serious.
Belichick and Hudson have been living together for several months, so TMZ.
“He is a very happy man,” a source close to Belichick told The US Sun.
“He found a great person who makes him happy, that’s the most important thing.
“They get along really well, you feel like their connection has been solid and they really make a really solid duo.
“It’s kind of a big breath of fresh air for him as he had a really bad year last season.”
The former New England Patriots coach is keeping busy by signing a new broadcast deal with The CW Network.
And Belichick seems content to enjoy the blossoming romance in the tranquility of Nantucket.
He owns several properties on the island with a total estimated value of $7 million.
Belichick allegedly spent money to buy Hudson a $75,000 Porsche last month.
“After many years of hard work, pressure and all the media attention and putting football and the Patriots as his No. 1 priority, he is now living and making the most of his time,” the source added.
The disadvantages of being in a relationship with a large age difference
Dr. Jenn Mann, MFT, a licensed therapist, reveals the main problems experienced by romantic partners with a huge age gap between them.
Mann said it can initially be exciting when one partner is much younger than the other, like Bill Belichick, 72, and Jordon Hudson, 24, who share a whopping 48-year age difference.
“When people get older, they may think it’s refreshing that a young girl is looking at them adoringly and is attracted to them and is interested in him,” he said. Dr. told The US Sun.
“[But] there is a huge gap in life experience – in just a few years on this planet, in how it helps us evolve, develop and mature.”
“Even the most mature young person, when there is a 40-year age difference, the older people are incredibly immature.
“You are not in the middle when it comes to development and life experience.”
Dr. Mann said a common consideration for older male partners would be the younger woman wanting a father figure.
“Typically, younger women are attracted to much older men because of unresolved issues with their parents,” Dr. Mann added.
“This could be a lack of attention, a lack of love, someone not being there, or even someone being in the house but not being there as they would like them to be.”
Dr. Mann noted that sexual and intimacy issues may begin to come into play as the older partner may not have as much energy.
What’s more, for older men, “it typically becomes more difficult to get and keep an erection,” she said.
“There are issues related to sexual performance, which can create other risks when it comes to taking medications for sexual performance.”
Socially, Dr. Mann suggested that problems can arise between a couple when they mix with friends from different generations.
“In this case, if they are with Bill’s friends in their seventies or even sixties and fifties, a 24-year-old woman at that table will probably have a hard time finding common ground socially,” she said.

“He is doing simple things, taking her to romantic dinners, going for walks, cycling on the beach or when they are at home.
“And he’s smiling more than usual, so that’s a great sign of how he’s feeling right now.
“I think he’s realizing there’s more to life than just football.
“He sacrificed many years for his passion and did not put his private life first.
“Now I see a ‘refreshing’ version of Bill, a normal guy who likes the simple things in life and spends the day with his girlfriend and that makes him and her happy.”
Belichick and Hudson faced criticism for their 48-year age difference.
But Shaquille O’Neal recently defended the NFL coach.
Shaq said in his Great Podcast“Good for him. He only has 10 more summers. He’ll be 80.
“If he still has enough game to have a 20-year-old.
“If he still has the blue boys, more power to him. I’m happy for him.”
