Jordon Hudson, the girlfriend of former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick, will compete for Miss Maine USA next month, according to a report by E! Online.
The Maine native, 24, has been dating Belichick, 72, for over two years, according to the outlet. Hudson announced her competition plans in an Instagram post on Wednesday.
“Happy International Pageant Day,” Hudson captioned a photo of her wearing a green dress, silver crown, and “Miss Hancock” sash. “I couldn’t think of a better day to share with the world that I will be competing for Miss Maine USA 2025; representing my hometown Hancock.”
In a follow-up post, Huson shared a photo of herself as an infant in a life vest aboard a boat. She shared some insight into her roots as the daughter of Maine fishermen.
“This is what I meant when I said ‘I was born ready.’ Seriously, though. I was practically born on the waters of Hancock Point, Maine; just as my father had been, and his father, and his father…. since before the American Revolutionary War,” Hudson wrote. “And now as the daughter of displaced fishermen, I care to use my voice to protect the fleeting tradition and heritage of Maine fishing families, to prevent others from going through the same plight as what mine had to go through.”
A former Bridgewater State University cheerleader, Hudson reportedly started dating Belichick, who now coaches the University of North Carolina UNC Tar Heels football team, in 2022.
The Miss Maine USA 2025 pageant is scheduled for May 10 and 11.

Slow start costs Maine Mariners
“ACTIVE MINDS / KYLE CARES” PAY FOR THEIR YEAR-ROUND PROGRAMMING. THE MAINE MARINERS AND PORTLAND SEA DOGS BOTH HAD HOME GAMES TONIGHT. AND WHILE THE SEA DOGS SEASON IS JUST UNDERWAY, THE MARINERS ARE IN THE STRETCH RUN TO THE PLAYOFFS. THEY HOSTED THE ADIRONDACK THUNDER AT THE CROSS ARENA. AND THE MARINERS HAD A BAD START. ALEX CAMPBELL SCORES LESS THE THREE MINUTES INTO THE GAME TO GIVE THE THUNDER THE LEAD. THE THUNDER SCORED FOUR GOALS IN THE FIRST PERIOD AND LATER TOOK A 5-0 LEAD. THE MARINERS ACTUALLY CAME BACK TO TIE IT BEFO
The Maine Mariners fell behind 5-0 and then lost 6-5 in a shootout.

A letter is being sent that asks registered sex offenders to email personal information
State Police warn of scam targeting sex offenders in Maine A letter is being sent that asks registered sex offenders to email personal information
Updated: 11:10 AM EDT Apr 8, 2026
Editorial Standards
Maine State Police is warning of a scam that is targeting sex offenders in the state.The issue was brought to those who run the Sex Offender Registry that the scam is targeting registered people on probation in Maine. A letter is being mailed to people, claiming to be from the ‘Maine Probation Tonduary.’ The letter claims there has been a data migration error in the Records Management System and the registrant needs to email personal identifying information (PII) to an email address listed on the letter. Police say neither the Maine Sex Offender Registry nor the Maine Department of Corrections would ever send such a letter asking a person to send sensitive information in this format. If you have received such a letter, you should not email your information to the address on the letter. Instead, report it to the Maine Sex Offender Registry at 207-624-7270 or local law enforcement.
