<p id=”par-4_49″>After his divorce from his first wife Debby Clarke was finalized in 2006, Belichick met Holliday at a nightclub in Palm Beach, Florida. The two started talking but Holliday was in a relationship with another man. She eventually decided to break things off with him and began dating Belichick.</p>
<p id=”par-5_60″>In the years that followed, Holliday became a fixture at Patriots games and was by his side for a number of events. She even served as the Executive Director for the Bill Belichick Foundation. However, reports of a messy split between the two became public in 2023. It’s believed that they were involved in a drawn-out, back-and-forth breakup for nearly a year.</p>
