BILL BELICHICK has started engagement ring shopping for his 24-year-old sweetheart as shock wedding plans begin to take shape, a source close to the NFL coaching legend has told The U.S. Sun.
According to the well-placed insider, the 72-year-old six-time Super Bowl-winning coach has been to “around 20” stores in New York and Los Angeles over the last two months as he considers proposing to new flame Jordon Hudson.

The source confirmed that plans are in place to get engaged to the former cheerleader “after the end of the season”.
The U.S. Sun has extensively reported on how the former New England Patriots coach loves his new life after stepping away from the hot seat after 23 years at the end of last season.
A source revealed that Belichick was “living like a 25-year-old man” as he enjoyed time away from the NFL by throwing himself into punditry and his new relationship.
He also revealed that the coaching great has been quizzing pals about the best way to propose and possible locations.
“Since last June, has has talked that he loves her and that he sees his future with her,” said a close friend.
“Their relationship makes him feel happy and complete.
“She understands him and supports him.
“He has been looking for a ring for the last two months
“He asked how much he should spend on a ring and make it a special moment.”
The U.S. Sun has been told Belichick is ready to drop $200,00 on a sparkly surprise for Jordon.
He reportedly met her on a flight in 2021 and started dating officially in June this year after a split from his partner of 16 years, Linda Holliday.
The pair have been pictured together on numerous occasions.
“He has to decide very soon because he has to pick between two rings that jewelry designers suggested to him,” added the pal.
According to our sources, romantic Belichick is seriously considering a destination wedding in the Caribbean or Croatia.
The downsides of having a massive age gap relationship
Dr. Jenn Mann, MFT, a licesesed therapist, reveals the key issues experienced by romantic partners with a huge age gap between them.
Dr. Mann claimed it might initially feel 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 might just think it is refreshing that a young woman is looking at them adoringly and is attracted to them and is interested in him,” Dr. Mann told The U.S. Sun.
“[But] there is a huge gap in life experience — in just years on this planet, in the way that helps us to evolve, develop, and mature.”
“Even the most mature young person, when there is a 40-year age gap, the older people are incredibly immature.
“You’re not meeting in the middle regarding development and life experience.”
Dr. Mann said one common consideration for older male partners would be the younger female wanting a father figure.
“Usually, younger women are drawn to much older men because of unresolved issues with their fathers,” Dr. Mann added.
“This could be a lack of attention, love, someone not being there, or even someone being in the household but not being present the way she might wish he was.”
Dr. Mann noted that sexual and intimacy issues might begin to be at play, given the older partner may not have as much energy.
What’s more, for older men, “it becomes more difficult typically to get and maintain an erection,” she said.
“There are problems related to sexual performance, which can create other risks when it comes to taking medication for sexual performance.”
Socially, Dr. Mann suggested that issues may arise between a couple when they mix with friends from different generations.
“In this case, if they’re hanging with Bill’s friends in their seventies or even sixties and fifties, a 24-year-old woman at that table will likely struggle to find common ground socially,” she said.

“Bill loves the Adriatic coast, the romantic spots and landscapes,” said the source.
“He loves to make things special for her.
“The goal is to get engaged after the end of the season when they will both have a break from work. “
Once the NFL season is over and his TV and media commitments are over, Belichick plans to whisk Jordon away to the French Riviera, Italy, and then back to Croatia.
A return to coaching is a possibility, although The U.S. Sun revealed last week that the Pats icon has no chance of taking over the New York Jets following Robert Saleh’s brutal sacking.
Whatever he decides, his new girlfriend will have his back.
“He feels like it’s a new start in his life,” confirmed the source.
“She will support him whatever he decides to do. They are an excellent and united couple.”
