With all the attention on former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and his relationship with Jordon Hudson, "Saturday Night Live" couldn't help but made a joke about their age gap during the cold open on May 3. 

The two have 48 years between them, with Hudson being 24, while Belichick is 73 years old. 

The cold open took place in the Oval Office, with James Austin Johnson playing President Donald Trump and Mikey Day playing Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller. The skit centers around them signing executive orders.  

“Sir, this order will make it socially acceptable for a man in his 70s to date a 24-year-old,” Day as Miller tells Johnson as Trump.

“That’s right, we’re calling it ‘The Belichick Law.’ We’re going to make girlfriends young again, okay,” Johnson as Trump responded. "Old men can now date far younger women. We like that. It’s hot! But in reverse it’s quite disgusting, right? Very ‘Dateline.’"

This comes after Belichick and Hudson have been in the news over the past week over a controversial CBS Sunday Morning interview. CBS's Tony Dokoupil asked Belichick how he and Hudson met during the interview. Hudson then walked straight into the interview and put an end to that line of questioning.

“We’re not talking about this,” she said.

There have been multiple reports since this. One was by TMZ, reporting that Hudson even stormed out of the room during the interview, delaying it for 30 minutes. 

Belichick has since released a statement stating that the agreement about the interview was "to focus solely on the contents of the book." He accused CBS of not honoring this during the interview. 

"After this occurred several times, Jordon, with whom I share both a personal and professional relationship, stepped in to reiterate that point to help refocus the discussion. She was not deflecting any specific question or topic but simply doing her job to ensure the interview stayed on track," Belichick wrote (via Albert Breer). "Some of the clips make it appear as though we were avoiding the question of how we met, but we have been open about the fact that Jordon and I met on a flight to Palm Beach in 2021.

"The final eight-minute segment does not reflect the productive 35-minute conversation we had, which covered a wide range of topics related to my career. Instead, it presents selectively edited clips and stills from just a few minutes of the interview to suggest a false narrative - that Jordon was attempting to control the conversation - which is imply not true," Belichick added.

CBS then posted a statement responding to this.

"When we agreed to speak with Mr. Belichick, it was for a wide-ranging interview. There were no preconditions or limitations to this conversation. This was confirmed repeatedly with his publisher before the interview took place and after it was published," a CBS News spokesperson said.

SNL just couldn't help themselves on this one.
