Jordon Hudson has filed a bombshell lawsuit over the “egregious” leak of a shirtless video showing Bill Belichick outside an Airbnb three years ago.
The footage showed the legendary former New England Patriots coach leaving a property in Winthrop, Massachusetts. Our News Outlet later reported that Belichick had spent the night there with Hudson, his girlfriend at the time, who is 49 years younger than him.
Last month, TMZ reported that Hudson and Belichick had ended their romantic relationship the previous year, although the pair remained friends.
Hudson filed the lawsuit in Massachusetts on Friday, November 6, naming Airbnb owners Elise McDevitt and Craig Nolan as defendants.
According to court documents obtained by Our News Outlet, Hudson booked the property for a four-night stay with Belichick in June 2023. She claims the hosts exposed their relationship through “egregious violations” of her privacy.
The complaint confirms that Hudson “was in a romantic relationship” with Belichick at the time, but says the relationship was not publicly known and that both had worked to keep it “fiercely guarded.”

The filing says Hudson’s identity as Belichick’s partner was revealed to the public after the defendants allegedly shared private information about her, along with footage of a shirtless Belichick at the property, without authorization from either of them.
The lawsuit further alleges that the privacy breach triggered intense publicity and scrutiny surrounding Hudson and her relationship with Belichick. It also claims she became the target of ridicule and disparaging coverage in numerous tabloid reports.
Hudson argues that the “significant damage” she suffered would not have happened without the alleged disclosure. She also accuses the defendants of showing no remorse and instead ridiculing and taunting her.
She is seeking damages to be determined at trial, reimbursement of legal fees and an order preventing the defendants from sharing any personal or private information about her with third parties.
Hudson claims the June 2023 stay appeared to conclude without incident until the couple’s final night, when McDevitt allegedly sent her Ring footage of Belichick without a shirt, along with a message about the property’s parking rules.
“We didn’t [sic] find the video hilarious,” Hudson alleges McDevitt wrote. “As we discussed, I’m a huge cowboys fan, but don’t live under a rock! Wishing you the best! Please don’t forget to leave the parking pass.”
The exchange became awkward, according to the complaint. Hudson says she responded: “To be honest – I don’t quite understand your message. Regardless, I hear you…No parking…”
McDevitt allegedly replied: “It’s clear who is on the video…I’ll leave it at that.”

Hudson says she then sought reassurance that the footage would not be distributed: “I would expect that after I have checked out, and there are no further issues that the video will be deleted… Is that correct?”.
The complaint states that McDevitt had responded almost immediately throughout the exchange but did not answer that message right away, raising Hudson’s concerns.

Still seeking confirmation that the Ring footage would be erased, Hudson allegedly wrote: “Please let me know the answer to that last question-as you can imagine our privacy is very important to us.”
When McDevitt reportedly failed to respond for some time, Hudson followed up with: “Looking for confirmation-thanks.” McDevitt eventually replied: “We will delete it from ring, but as you know, unfortunately, videos are never totally deleted.”
Hudson says she nevertheless left the property a five-star review, believing that the video and other private details—including her identity and Belichick’s stay—would not be disclosed to anyone else.
Several months later, the footage surfaced on social media and “immediately went viral,” according to the lawsuit.
The complaint says the leak led to the publication of numerous false, tabloid-style and clickbait stories about Hudson, subjecting her to widespread mockery and causing what she describes as substantial harm.
When Hudson raised concerns about the alleged disclosure, McDevitt reportedly warned: “If you decide to take any legal action, we will respond and the discovery process would presumably not be welcomed by the person in the video.”
Hudson says she wanted to resolve the dispute quietly, but claims McDevitt contacted her unexpectedly in May 2025, years after the stay.
According to Hudson, McDevitt acknowledged that the video had been sent to other people two years earlier.

“All this time has gone by, I can assure you we didn’t release the video,” McDevitt allegedly said, according to the complaint.
“We had sent it to a few people initially wondering is this him [Mr. Belichick], isn’t it him and I don’t know what happened from there, but we did delete it from the camera, as I assured you.
“We were never happy that it was released and never commented that it was our home on any social media channels. You guys should come back lol!”
Soon afterward, McDevitt and Nolan appeared on the “Pablo Torre Finds Out” podcast. Hudson alleges that the pair disclosed further personal information about her during the interview.
She called their decision to appear anonymously “ironic” and accused them of demonstrating a blatant disregard for her privacy.
After hearing the episode, Hudson says she messaged McDevitt: “You gave more footage directly to a reporter? You must be out of your mind, Elise. This is so illegal.”
The lawsuit says Airbnb removed the property from its platform after Hudson reported the incident, citing a violation of its privacy policy. Hudson claims that decision prompted a series of hostile messages from McDevitt.
She alleges one message amounted to a thinly veiled threat to release additional information: “Now that you destroyed our livelihood we are weighing our options about whom we will talk to and what we will discuss with them.”
Hudson says she did not respond, but later received a final message stating: “You’re not even famous now! You are infamous. Good for you!”
McDevitt told the California Post she had “no comment” when asked about the lawsuit.
