It’s the season of power couples in the NFL, where the excitement off the field rivals the action on it. From Taylor Swift to Simone Biles, the list of celebrities in the stands seems endless, with wives and girlfriends often stealing the spotlight from the players themselves.
The impact these women have, whether bringing good or bad luck, is a topic of debate. They’ve undeniably transformed the game beyond the field. This phenomenon holds true for the Buffalo Bills and their quarterback, Josh Allen, who aims to transform a challenging start into a successful playoff run.
In the background, supporting Allen, is his girlfriend—a relatively new addition to the football scene.
Who is Josh Allen’s girlfriend?
While Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld typically keep their personal lives under wraps, they officially confirmed their relationship after being first seen together in May.
Hailee Steinfeld is recognized as both an actress and a singer, making her debut in the film industry at the age of 13 with her role in True Grit, which earned her an Oscar nomination. Her impressive filmography includes notable works like The Edge of Seventeen, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse, Hawkeye, Pitch Perfect 2, Pitch Perfect 3, and Dickinson.
In 2015, Steinfeld collaborated with Shawn Mendes before releasing her debut single. Although she released her first album, Haiz, in November of the same year, her primary focus has been on acting. She has only produced one more album, Half Written Story, which was released in May 2020.
