Charles Barkley has expressed concern for his "great friend" Bill Belichick after the coach's 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, interrupted an interview to shut down a question about how they met.
In an appearance on The Dan Patrick Show, Barkley was asked for his thoughts on the viral moment, which brought more attention to the 48-year age gap in the relationship.
"This is a very slippery subject for me because Bill's one of my really good friends," Barkley said around the 15:30 point of the interview, as seen above. "I'm not sure what's going on... I think he got to be very careful right, this is starting to be on a very slippery slope."
He described Belichick as "the greatest football coach ever," but continued to say that he thinks he's on "a very slippery slope."
"I never talk about people's personal relationship, that's another rule I got, but I will admit I'm a little concerned with some of the stuff that's going on," he continued. "I might actually reach out to him and make sure everything's good. But I am concerned from what I'm hearing. 'Cause yeah, it's not a good look right now, I'll admit that. I just hope everything's all right."
During Belichick and Hudson's interview with CBS Sunday Morning, reporter Tony Dokoupil asked how they met. Hudson abruptly interjected from off-camera.
"We're not talking about this," she said. The moment raised a lot of questions about the nature of the relationship between the couple.
