LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Bill Belichick’s girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, appeared to take a veiled swipe at the football coach's ex, Linda Holliday, in a recent Instagram tribute.

While the post centered on 2024 Miss Massachusetts USA winner Melissa Sapini, a fellow pageant contestant Hudson met while vying for the Miss Maine title, it also name-dropped the "Nantucket Socialites," a reference many see as a subtle dig at Holliday.

The latest twist in this off-season soap opera follows a public holiday spat between the two women, sparked during a Christmas party DJed by Holliday’s twin daughters.

In a lengthy Instagram post shared on Tuesday, June 17, Jordon Hudson honored her friend Melissa Sapini, who officially passed on her Miss Massachusetts USA crown to this year’s winner.

Hudson praised Sapini’s reign and reflected on their shared journey in the pageant world.

While most of the lengthy tribute was filled with admiration for Sapini, a pointed remark tucked near the end raised eyebrows.

"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 wrote in what appeared to be a thinly veiled shot at Belichick’s ex, Holliday.

For context, Belichick, 73, and Holliday, 61, ended their 16-year relationship in September 2023. The veteran football coach reportedly met Hudson during a flight from Boston to Florida in 2021, and they supposedly started dating after Belichick's split from Holliday. 

Hudson’s subtle dig appears to reference a tense incident from late last year, when Holliday allegedly took issue with both Hudson and Sapini attending a Nantucket Christmas party.

What happened between Jordon Hudson and Bill Belichick's ex Linda Holliday?

A detailed incident report obtained by the Daily Mail sheds light on a heated confrontation that took place during a December 6 Christmas party at Dreamland, where tensions flared between Bill Belichick’s ex, Linda Holliday, and his current girlfriend, Jordon Hudson.

According to the report, Holliday became visibly upset upon seeing Hudson at the event, which was widely promoted as a party headlined by her twin daughters, Ashley and Kat Hess, who were DJing. Holliday reportedly felt Hudson’s presence was “inappropriate” and contacted staff in an attempt to have her removed from the venue.

While on the phone with a staff member, Holliday and her friend, author Elin Hilderbrand, allegedly confronted Hudson on the dance floor with what witnesses described as “threatening body language and escalating aggression.”

A staff member approached Hudson to address the situation and later wrote in the report, “I asked Ms Hudson if she thought it was a good idea to be there considering the clear animosity the above individuals felt towards her.”

Hudson reportedly “defended herself”, saying she had done nothing wrong and simply wanted to enjoy her first Christmas Stroll and attend what she called “the big party” of the night.

Hudson said she had no intention of causing trouble and just wanted to have fun with her friend, Miss Massachusetts USA 2024 winner Sapini. 

However, after the confrontation escalated, Hudson chose to leave the party. Before exiting, she reportedly told the staffer that Holliday had also made a threat at Sapini during the altercation.

According to Hudson, Holliday told Sapini that if she “valued her current title,” she should reconsider her choice of friends and added that she had “many powerful friends in the pageant organization.” Sapini, though silent throughout, was reportedly in tears and was “wiping her eyes frequently,” the report stated.

Despite the intensity of the confrontation, no police or security intervention was necessary.
