Erin Andrews and Tom Brady apparently have discussed the drama surrounding his former NFL coach, Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson’s relationship.
While guest co-hosting “TODAY with Jenna & Friends” on Monday, the veteran Fox Sports sideline reporter reacted to Hudson’s third-place finish at the Miss Maine USA pageant on Saturday — and said that she has asked Brady what he thinks about the couple.
“[Belichick] was front row [at the pageant], which I gotta say, people have asked a lot and I work with Tom Brady [Fox Sports’ top NFL analyst] — so I’ve been asking him a lot, ‘What do you think about this?” the veteran Fox Sports sideline reporter said. “Because he knows coach as a coach and I know coach from being on the sidelines.
“Look, Bill Belichick is royalty, legend. He’s it, he is the Mount Rushmore. I know how he is on the field. He’s very matter of fact, you get two seconds to talk to him. I am full blown stomach cramps when I get ready to talk to him because I don’t want to mess up. And I kind of get excited and I start talking too much.”
Andrews did not elaborate further about her conversation with Brady.
The WEAR by Erin Andrews founder did say that 24-year-old Hudson “get congeniality points” for getting Belichick, 73, to sit in the front row of the Miss Maine USA pageant.
Andrews added that she “tried to watch the pageant” with some friends, but “stopped” when she hit a paywall on a streaming link for the pageant.
“I think it was forty bucks,” Andrews said. “But I heard through the grapevine that this pageant was very hard to get a credential for. It was kind of like‘the pageant’ to get to.”
“Is that because Jordon and Bill were going to be there,” host Jenna Bush Hager asked, to which Andrews replied, “I believe so.”
Belichick and Hudson are in the midst of a media firestorm after the fallout from his “CBS Sunday Morning” interview that aired on April 27 — and showed her interrupting a question about how the couple met.
Since then, multiple reports have painted Hudson as trying to control Belichick’s career, while promoting herself for high-profile projects.
Last Friday, former ESPN personality Pablo Torre alleged on his “Pablo Torre Finds Out” program that Belichick’s family is concerned about their relationship and they are looking into Hudson.
