00:00Ian Moore is the editor of The Post's iconic Page Six.

00:03Ian, I cannot think of a better way to close out 2025 than to chat about the top stories

00:08that you guys covered this year, specifically the couples, the ones who made it, the ones

00:12who didn't, and the ones who still confuse us.

00:16So let's do this thing as a countdown, starting at number five with the one couple that confuses

00:22the hell out of me, Bill Belichick and the woman I affectionately refer to as his child

00:28bride, Jordan Hudson.

00:30I mean, he is in his 70s, she is in her 20s, and that barely scratches the surface of the

00:35headlines that this duo has made this year.

00:38So what makes our readers and me love to hate them?

00:45Well, Caitlin, they are a fascinating couple.

00:48And I think this story, you know, it actually started back in 2024.

00:51So it's been going strong for over a year.

00:55And I think what people are fascinated by is if it was just a story of him being 73 and

01:00she being 24, that would be a story in itself.

01:03And how they met, they allegedly met on a plane.

01:07And she's a pageant contestant and a sort of cheerleader, even though she's like well out

01:14of college, she's in and, and then he got, of course, he left the NFL and went into this

01:20high profile NCAA coaching job at UNC.

01:24But I think that beyond the shock of the age gap, et cetera, her involvement, her involvement

01:30in his career has been really fascinating.

01:32So the story is hitting on a number of levels.

01:34Like if you're a page six reader for celebrity gossip, you know, it's the age gap.

01:40But then like, if you're a sports fan, there's a lot in there and there's a lot of things

01:43she's doing, getting involved in his business.

01:45Also, for example, if you're into media, you know, she had, of course, done that bizarro

01:50intervention during his fateful CBS news sit down interview.

01:55So there's a lot going on here for people to get into.

01:59She likens herself to Tree, Taylor Swift's like brilliant publicist, which I just don't

02:07get because I don't feel like any of the headlines are particularly flattering.

02:12And when you say she is a cheerleader and well out of college, like this is an adult

02:17cheerleading competition.

02:19And he was there, this storied coach of from the NFL, just like on high, who's now coaching

02:27college and it's not going well, is sitting there like cheering on the cheerleading adults.

02:34I just it hurts my brain.

02:36He was also at her pageant when she was trying to win the Miss Maine title, which we covered.

02:44Which she didn't.

02:45She did not.

02:46Yeah, she she failed again to win that.

02:49Yeah, it's the thing that's interesting is so we had initially reported, right, that

02:55they were seen this all started where they were seen on a sort of a mystery date in in

02:59in Boston.

03:00And then as we got to know Jordan Hudson more, remember, she had actually filed for a bunch

03:07of trademarks where she was trying to trademark certain key Bill Belichick phrases, some of

03:13which were actually owned by the New England Patriots.

03:16And she sort of said that she was taking going to take over his brand and be his kind of branding

03:21guru, although it's a little unclear what is Bill Belichick's brand.

03:25I mean, obviously, he's a very winning football coach.

03:27What qualifies her to be any kind of branding guru?

03:30Right.

03:30Kind of the maybe some might say the ultimate Gen Z move.

03:33But and then, of course, we had exclusively reported details when he I think one fateful

03:40thing in this relationship was when he was supposed to do when he joined the UNC team as

03:47coach a season of Hard Knocks, right, the ESPN show that goes behind the scenes of a team

03:54and follow their season.

03:55And that would have actually been great.

03:57I think that would have been a really great and successful show, even if the season didn't

04:03go well, which it's not.

04:04We had reported exclusively that Jordan Hudson basically sort of scuttled the deal, right?

04:11She got involved saying that she was his, you know, rep and basically was making a lot

04:17of demands to get involved with the show, allegedly.

04:20And then, lo and behold, three days after it was announced or, you know, a few days after

04:25it was announced, ESPN came out and said that the talks had taken a turn they were uncomfortable

04:29with.

04:30So the show was scrapped.

04:32So that was, I think, a key branding there from Jordan Hudson.

04:36But hey, nice work if you can get it and I don't ever have to dress nice to be on a

04:41plane, but perhaps the transportation secretary is on to something.

04:44If you dress nice, you can hook yourself a rich, old, famous football coach.

04:50Yeah.

04:50And you know what?

04:51Go for it.

04:52We have to hand it to them.

04:53They're still going.

04:54They're still going strong.

04:56You know, his football career is going poorly.

04:59Her branding career isn't going great.

05:02I want to move on now to our fourth couple, a split.

05:04I didn't see coming Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom.

05:09Am I just out of the loop?

05:10I mean, what went wrong there?

05:12They seem pretty solid for a while.

05:15Yes.

05:16So we exclusively reported in June that the romance was on the rocks and that a source

05:22had said that it's over.

05:25And then a few weeks later, they did announce, you know, they made a mutual announcement that

05:31the relationship was done.

05:32And there were sources who had said that her album, I don't know if you have feelings of

05:37this, that her maligned album and tour had put a lot of stress on her.

05:43I don't have great feelings about it.

05:44It put a lot of stress on their relationship.

05:46Um, but there were some clues, um, that this was always quite a tumultuous romance.

05:55Okay.

05:56Okay.

05:57I, I don't know why I thought that they, she had like found her forever after her very highly

06:03publicized John Mayer and then the Russell Brand nightmare.

06:07And then she went to space and that space trip did not go over.

06:14Well, I think that, I don't know.

06:16I feel like our readers in particular are over the rich people taking the tour of space.

06:22Is that just me?

06:23I mean, yeah, the, the, the, the space trip did not go as planned.

06:27And of course she announced her, uh, set list, I guess, for her tour, for her album or for

06:32a tour while she was in space, which, which backfired and didn't help the relationship.

06:37The, the other thing though, is that in 2017, they had actually split for a year and Katy

06:44Perry had said at the time that they had this, they had been in couples therapy and she, and

06:50she had said that even when they met, because she was getting out of the Russell Brand relationship

06:53and we forget this, but Orlando Bloom apparently had been coming off a temporary vow of celibacy,

07:00I guess, at the time.

07:01So she said that it didn't take off immediately.

07:05They, there, there were some bumps in the road.

07:07They had this tumultuous relationship and yes, you're right.

07:09It seems stable for a long time.

07:11Of course they have a child together, but I guess the, uh, the past came to bite them.

07:16As long as little Daisy's okay, because you'd ever want the kids to get caught up in this.
