American actress Hailee Steinfeld and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen have announced their engagement after a year of dating. The couple shared the happy news on Instagram, with a picture showing Allen down on one knee amidst a romantic candlelit setting. The NFL also shared their congratulations on X (formerly Twitter).
The proposal, which likely took place during the Bills’ recent bye week, was kept secret until the Instagram post. Allen, when questioned about his bye week, simply described it as ‘fantastic,’ hinting at the joyous occasion.
The couple first sparked romance rumors in Spring 2023 when they were spotted dining together. Allen later confirmed their relationship, though he initially requested privacy. Steinfeld has since become a regular at Bills games, and the pair recently hosted a Halloween party.
Steinfeld, 27, is a highly accomplished actress, earning an Oscar nomination for her role in ‘True Grit’ and a Golden Globe nomination for ‘The Edge of Seventeen.’ She’s also a successful singer, having released several singles and EPs. Allen, 28, is a star quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, holding numerous team records. The pair’s engagement is a delightful blend of Hollywood glamour and NFL stardom.
