On May 11, Belichick's girlfriend Jordon Hudson, 24, competed for Miss Maine with her 73-year-old boyfriend supporting her from the front row of the competition. Even with the support, Hudson came in third place. Shelby Howell of Bangor won the pageant and will go on to compete in Miss USA.

I spent this weekend sitting in a Holiday Inn watching Bill Belichick's girlfriend compete in a beauty pageant. This is my story.

I’m hoping that anybody who’s watching this finds the strength to push through whatever it is that they’re going through,” the 24-year-old said.
