Bill Belichick’s daughter-in-law and his girlfriend didn’t seem to cross paths during North Carolina’s win over Stanford on Saturday.
Jordon Hudson, Belichick’s 24-year-old beau, and Jennifer Schmitt, the wife of Stephen Belichick, were not photographed together or spotted interacting with each other during Saturday’s game at Kenan Memorial Stadium.

It’s never been clear what the pair’s relationship has been like behind closed doors, but Schmitt had seemingly taken a swipe at Hudson in a social media comment during the uproar over the disastrous “CBS Sunday Morning” interview earlier this year.
Hudson has been a regular at UNC football games and on Saturday, she sported a white top, blue skirt and boots, along with a necklace that read “Banned” — seemingly a shot at the rumors from earlier this year that she was excommunicated from the football facilities.

Schmitt was spotted wearing a white long-sleeve top, blue shorts and boots while cheering on the Tar Heels.
Belichick’s relationship with Hudson has been headline-generating news since it became public during the summer of 2024.
Things reached a fever pitch after Hudson interjected during a “CBS Sunday Morning” interview when the host tried to ask Belichick about his relationship with Hudson.
That led to plenty of commentary, which included Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski discussing it on their podcast “Dude on Dudes,” defending Hudson as “working” as Belichick’s publicist in that moment, which comedian Nikki Glaser agreed with in a comment on the podcast’s Instagram page.
Schmitt then chimed in, questioning what Hudson was doing in the comments section.

“Publicists act in a professional manner and don’t ‘storm’ off set delaying an interview,” Schmitt wrote at the time.
Her husband, Stephen, is the defensive coordinator for the Tar Heels.
The Tar Heels have been on a bit of a hot streak on the field over the past few weeks.

Saturday’s win helped Belichick’s team move to 4-5 on the season and came just a week after UNC defeated Syracuse.
Prior to their current stretch of consecutive wins, the Tar Heels’ last victory occurred back on Sept. 13 against Richmond.
