Hailee Steinfeld and husband Josh Allen, the quarterback of the Buffalo Bills, are stepping into an exciting new phase of their life as they prepare to welcome their first child together. Both 29, the actress and NFL star shared the happy news in such a deeply personal, heartfelt manner that few often get a glimpse into the building family.
Steinfeld, who celebrated her 29th birthday this week, announced the baby news to her Substack subscribers. The Hawkeye star posted a sentimental birthday reflection listing her 29 favorite moments of the past year. Leaving the most significant news for last, she ended the post with an intimate video announcing that she and Allen are expecting.
The snowy clip showed Steinfeld standing outdoors with her baby bump very noticeable as Allen lovingly kissed her stomach. The couple followed this with a pose together, smiling warmly at the camera. Steinfeld wore a cozy fleece embroidered with the word “mother,” subtly but powerfully signaling the joy and pride surrounding the moment. The video carried on to playful, tender visuals-a slow pan revealing the couple holding hands beside a tiny snowman-that added whimsical charm to the announcement.
But shortly after the video went live for her subscribers, Steinfeld and Allen took to Instagram together, posting the same video and allowing the whole world to celebrate along with them. Allen commented below with a simple yet sweet message: “I love you,” that has melted hearts all over social media.
It was in 2023 that the love story of Steinfeld and Allen hit the headlines, as the two tried to balance their high-pressured careers in Hollywood and professional football. Amidst the schedules, their bonding grew stronger, and they had a beautiful wedding earlier this year. The couple got married on May 31 in Santa Barbara, California, in the presence of family members and close friends.
Now, barely months into married life, Steinfeld and Allen are gearing up for their biggest milestone yet-becoming first-time parents. The pregnancy announcement has been flooded with love on behalf of fans and fellow celebrities who praised the couple’s heartfelt and understated reveal. As Allen continues his NFL season, including an upcoming matchup against the New England Patriots, and Steinfeld balances her acting and music career, it’s crystal clear that this is a very special moment in their lives. With love, warmth, and excitement at the center of their journey, Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen are embracing parenthood with the same joy defining their relationship from the get-go.
