Bill Belichick’s Much-Younger Girlfriend Stormed Out of His Dumpster Fire Interview: Report

 

Bill Belichick’s girlfriend reportedly stormed out of his CBS interview where she awkwardly shut down a question about how the two met.

Belichick appeared on CBS News Sunday Morning to talk about his book and his life after the New England Patriots. The most viral came when Tony Dokoupil brought up the legendary coach’s relationship with 24-year-old Jordon Hudson. After asking the coach how he deals with people talking about the relationship and their significant age gap — Belichick is 73 — Dokoupil then asked how they met. Hudson, sitting off-screen nearby, quickly interjected to say that Belichick was “not talking about this.”

Sources told TMZ that it wasn’t the only moment that complicated things during the interview. The Monday afternoon report said:

We’re told outside of that baffling moment that made the final edit, there were numerous other instances of Hudson butting in — even when the legendary coach was answering questions about football, she would stop and correct him.

Our sources say Belichick only arrived at the interview with Hudson — no one from his publishing company, the University of North Carolina, or any other rep was with him … which was a bit of a head-scratcher to CBS producers on set.

At one point, things became so contentious that Hudson simply stormed off the set. This halted things for half an hour.

The report continues:

We’re told once things calmed down, Dokoupil — who was “spooked” by the whole encounter — elected to wrap up things quickly and end the awkward experience.

As for how the dumpster fire of an encounter got edited — we’re told the higher-ups at CBS News and Sports had to get involved to figure out how to salvage it … and while a second interview was scheduled to go down at a later time, it was ultimately scrapped.
