PALM BEACH, Florida – Bill Belichick, the legendary NFL football coach who now at age 73 leads the North Carolina Tar Heels, is breaking his silence about a “CBS Sunday Morning” interview in which his 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson shut down a question about how the two met.
“We’re not talking about that,” Hudson could be heard telling Belichick during the segment which has since gone viral to fascinate America.

On Wednesday, Belichick accused CBS of selective editing “to suggest a false narrative – that Jordon was attempting to control the conversation – which is simply not true.”
The coach has now issued a statement indicating: “I agreed to speak with ‘CBS Sunday Morning’ to promote my new book, ‘The Art of Winning – Lessons from My Life in Football.’
“Prior to this interview, I clearly communicated with my publicist at Simon & Schuster that any promotional interviews I participated in would agree to focus solely on the contents of the book.
“Unfortunately, that expectation was not honored during the interview. I was surprised when unrelated topics were introduced, and I repeatedly expressed to the reporter, Tony Dokoupil, and the producers that I preferred to keep the conversation centered on the book.

Belichick continued: “After this occurred several times, Jordon, with whom I share both a personal and professional relationship, stepped in to reiterate that point to help focus the discussion. She was not deflecting any specific question or topic but simply doing her job to ensure the interview stayed on track. Some of the clips make it appear as though we were avoiding the question of how we met, but we have been open about the fact that Jordon and I met on a flight to Palm Beach in 2021.
“The final eight-minute segment does not reflect the productive 35-minute conversation we had, which covered a wide range of topics related to my career. Instead, it presents selectively edited clips and stills from just a few minutes of the interview to suggest a false narrative – that Jordon was attempting to control the conversation – which is simply not true.”
Discussion about the interview has sparked a frenzy of comedic reaction.
The Babylon Bee on Wednesday posted a satire article with the headline: “Bill Belichick puts girlfriend in pack ‘n play until practice is over.”
“That’s it, sweetie, you just stay here and play while I go coach the football men, ok?” Belichick was heard telling his girlfriend, according to the spoof. “You’ve got your sippy cup and your Veggie Straws here, and I brought some of your favorite toys. Just play nice while your Billy-Bill goes to practice, alright?”
Fox News host Greg Gutfeld clowned that he understood why the pair does not want to give details about their initial meeting.
“I get it,” Gutfeld said. “It’s not sexy admitting that they met when she was at his front door selling boxes of Thin Mints.”

During the same broadcast, former wrestling star and now Fox News contributor Tyrus said of Belichick: “He will no longer be remembered as a great football coach. He will go down as one of the dumbest people ever to put on a pair of shoes.
“It was a cry for help. He looked like he was about to cry during the entire interview, with Satan off to the right … like he is being blackmailed.”
