Jordon Hudson, the 24-year-old girlfriend of legendary NFL coach Bill Belichick, is making headlines for a surprising decision: turning down a coveted spot on the season of ABC's Dancing with the Stars. While the offer could have marked her breakout moment in mainstream television, sources claim Hudson has no intention of stepping into the ballroom this fall, because she's focused on ing Belichick's new role at the University of North Carolina.
Hudson, who recently placed third in the Miss Maine USA competition, has been in the public eye since her relationship with the 73-year-old coach went public. Despite the attention, she's reportedly opting to stay behind the scenes for now, choosing to be present for Belichick's debut college football season rather than pursuing her own time in the spotlight.
Why Hudson said no to 'Dancing with the Stars'
The decision to decline the Dancing with the Stars invitation isn't based on lack of interest. In fact, Hudson's background as a cheerleader would have made her a natural fit for the show. But timing is everything, and the fall filming schedule overlaps with Belichick's commitment to UNC's football program. According to insiders, Hudson wants to be at his side during this transitional moment in his career.
"She likely will decline as it will be in the fall, the same time Bill will be coaching and she wants to be there for him," a source familiar with the situation shared.
Hudson still has her eyes on the screen
Though she's reportedly ing on this particular opportunity, Hudson isn't closing the door on the entertainment world. Sources say she's actively interested in roles that involve television hosting, whether in front of or behind the camera. With her rising public profile and polished pageant presence, it's likely we'll see her on screen in some capacity soon.
For now, Hudson seems content to let the cameras follow someone else, at least until football season ends.
