Jordan Hudson made a statement about marine conservation during a charity event in his hometown of Maine. North Carolina football coach Bill Belichick’s girlfriend isn’t afraid to be bold, and she’s proven it once again.
Hudson appeared at the 51st annual Maine Fishermen’s Forum on Saturday wearing a custom-made suit made entirely from reclaimed rope, drawing attention to the environmental issue known as “ghost gear.”
The dress was created in 2023 from 36 kilos of yarn taken from Port Clyde’s Hart Island and was designed in collaboration with sustainable fashion designer Runa Ray and Rozalia Project volunteers. It is an organization focused on cleaning marine debris from oceans and coastlines.
Hudson said the suit is intended to spark discussion about abandoned, lost or discarded fishing equipment that remains in the water and continues to trap marine life.
“The Rozalia Project and I came together to spark discussion about the Gulf of Maine’s sexiest issue: ghost gear,” Hudson wrote in a social media post. “It was an honor to showcase this at the Maine Fishermen’s Forum.”
“Ghost gear” refers to fishing nets, lines and traps that are left in the ocean and continue to catch fish and other marine animals long after they are discarded. Growing up in the north, Hudson is actively involved in regional fishing and wildlife initiatives and frequently supports efforts to protect the oceans associated with the Gulf of Maine.

His appearance also comes at a time of increased public attention over his relationship with coach Belichick, a six-time Super Bowl winner heading into his first season leading North Carolina’s football program.
Despite all the attention, Hudson’s focus at the event remained on raising awareness of Maine’s coastal environment. There’s no doubt he made a pretty good impression.
