Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen Announce Engagement Amidst Outpouring of Support

Actor Hailee Steinfeld and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen have announced their engagement, marking a significant milestone in their relationship that began in 2023. The couple shared the news on Instagram with a romantic photo of the proposal, which took place on November 22, 2024. The image shows Allen getting down on one knee, surrounded by an arch of pink roses and candles, and was captioned with two infinity symbols and the date of the proposal.

The relationship between Steinfeld, 27, and Allen, 28, has been closely followed by fans and media. They were first spotted together in May 2023, shortly after Allen’s breakup with his then-girlfriend, social media influencer Brittany Williams. In January 2024, Steinfeld evaded questions about her relationship with Allen during the Golden Globes, though she did acknowledge her support for the Buffalo Bills by holding up a Bills jersey on the red carpet.

The couple made their relationship Instagram official in July 2024 with a post by Allen that included a photo of the two taken on a balcony overlooking the Eiffel Tower in Paris. In October 2024, Steinfeld opened up about their relationship in her newsletter, Beau Society, sharing a heartwarming anecdote about exchanging chef’s knives as Christmas gifts and avoiding an old wives’ tale that suggested gifting a knife could signify the end of a relationship.

The engagement announcement has been met with widespread congratulations from friends, fans, and even the NFL, which reposted the proposal photo on social media. The news also coincides with a significant show of support from Buffalo Bills fans, who are known for their dedication. For instance, a father-son duo from Ohio drove five hours to help shovel snow at Highmark Stadium ahead of the Bills’ game against the San Francisco 49ers, calling their effort a “wedding present” for the engaged couple.

As the couple prepares for their future together, fans are eager to see if Steinfeld will attend upcoming Bills games, including the recent home game against the San Francisco 49ers. Despite the heavy snow in the region, the support from fans and the community remains strong.
