This is Ann Michael Hudson: Patriots’ QB Drake Maye’s girlfriend

Rookie quarterback Maye has made a fine start to life in the NFL, which he will hope to continue against the Miami Dolphins.

Since being named starting quarterback for the New England Patriots for the first time against the Houston Texans on October 13, Drake Maye has impressed in his rookie season in the NFL, which he will look to continue in Week 12 against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday (1:00 p.m. ET). One person almost certain to be there supporting him is longtime girlfriend Ann Michael Hudson.

Hudson has been a significant figure in the life of the rising NFL star, having recently celebrated nine years together. They met at William A. Hough High School in North Carolina and then attended the University of North Carolina together, where Maye became starting quarterback for the Tar Heels in 2022.

A business student at the University of North Carolina, Ann Michael Hudson is involved in various campus activities, including serving as the vice president of finance for her sorority, Kappa Delta. She has also gained valuable experience through internships, such as working for Piedmont Pennies, a North Carolina-based snack startup, and participating in Deloitte Consulting’s prestigious summer scholar program.

Hudson’s relationship with Drake Maye

While Hudson generally keeps a relatively low profile compared to other high-profile partners of NFL players, she has been a constant presence by Maye’s side, and often shares moments of support on social media.

She was there at the draft in April 2024, when Maye was picked third overall by the New England Patriots.

And Hudson has posted from Gillette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots, where the Pats lost to the Los Angeles Rams in their most recent game last weekend.

Maye is expected to make his seventh consecutive start against the Dolphins on Sunday. Although New England are 2-4 in the previous six, the quarterback has recorded 1,236 passing yards, nine touchdown passes and six interceptions, as well as 260 rushing yards and a rushing TD on 28 carries.

That makes him the leading quarterback with 9.3 yards per rush, heavily suggesting the Pats’ issues lie elsewhere.
