Linda Holliday has responded to the notion that she was taking a shot at ex-boyfriend Bill Belichick with her “Kill Bill” Halloween costume.

After his divorce from Debby Clarke in 2006, Bill Belichick began a relationship with Holliday in 2007. The two were together for 16 years before breaking up in 2023, and Belichick has since entered a relationship with a 24-year-old former cheerleader named Jordon Hudson.

Images of Holliday’s 2024 Halloween costume surfaced on social media. She dressed up as Uma Thurman’s character, the Bride, from Quentin Tarantino’s “Kill Bill” film series:

Naturally, some fans speculated that Holliday was taking a shot at Bill Belichick (the whole “Kill Bill” title and all). But Holliday pushed back against that notion in her latest Instagram story post, which you can see below:

There aren’t many details about Belichick’s breakup with Holliday. The former Cleveland Browns and New England Patriots head coach stays away from discussing his private life and tries to keep a low profile outside of football (he only joined Instagram a few weeks ago!)

 

It has been reported that Belichick and Hudson first met on a flight in February 2021, while she was studying at Bridgewater State University. The two maintained communication from then on before eventually beginning a relationship.

Bill Belichick Will Likely Return To Coaching In 2025

It was a giant surprise when Belichick was passed over in the 2024 NFL head coach hiring cycle. The Atlanta Falcons were the only team that interviewed Belichick, but they wound up hiring ex-Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris for the position.

But surely, Belichick will return to coaching in 2025. It already looks like there will be an array of HC openings, with the New York Giants (Belichick’s old team), Dallas Cowboys, Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints, Jacksonville Jaguars, Cleveland Browns and Las Vegas Raiders among the struggling teams who could be in the market for someone like Belichick.

REPORT: Bill Belichick Now Being Linked To Big-Market NFL Team, “Casting A Big Shadow” Over Their Current Head Coach

Bill Belichick may not have a head coaching job in the NFL at the moment. And he may not get one before the start of the 2024 season. But there are still many intriguing options, including one that’s expected to open up in the Big Apple at some point.

During a recent segment on “Get Up,” Belichick’s future was discussed by Adam Schefter and former New York Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum. After trying to figure out why Belichick was passed up for all of the current head coaching vacancies in the NFL, Tannenbaum turned his attention to 2025’s hiring cycle. And that’s when he had an interesting prediction for viewers.

According to Tannenbaum, Belichick will “cast a big shadow” in New York. But it won’t be over his former team. Rather, the former Jets exec believes Belichick’s name will be a popular one around the New York Giants organization, should Brian Daboll’s team continue to struggle during the 2024 season.

“The biggest shadow [Belichick] is going to cast is in East Rutherford, New Jersey,” Tannenbaum said during the show on Friday. “He has a great relationship with the Mara family. The first time the Giants lose a game, Brian Daboll — whether it’s fair or unfair — is going to have to answer that question every press conference.”

After leading his team to a 9-7-1 record and a wild card victory in his first season with the Giants in 2022, Daboll had a much tougher time pleasing the G-Men’s fanbase in 2023. In addition to the team’s disappointing 6-11 record, there were also rumors of Daboll being “disruptive” and tough to work with last season.

With all of the negativity surrounding the team heading into the offseason, you can bet Daboll will be on a short leash in 2024. And you can also bet that, should Daboll and the Giants struggle early on, John Mara will have Belichick’s number ready on speed dial.
