NFL star Josh Allen and actress Hailee Steinfeld are officially engaged, marking a milestone moment for the high-profile couple who have captivated fans since they were first spotted together in early 2023.
Allen, 28, the standout quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, proposed to Steinfeld, 27, during a private getaway over the weekend. The couple confirmed the happy news through matching Instagram posts on Monday, each sharing a photo of the romantic proposal alongside heartfelt captions.
“Forever starts now,” Allen wrote, posting a picture of himself down on one knee, the couple surrounded by a breathtaking backdrop of snowcapped mountains.
Steinfeld, known for her roles in True Grit, Pitch Perfect 2, and the Marvel series Hawkeye, shared her own post, writing, “Yes to forever with my best friend.” She also gave fans a glimpse of her sparkling engagement ring, which features a large oval-cut diamond set on a sleek platinum band.
The proposal reportedly took place during a winter retreat in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, a location the couple has visited before. Close friends and family joined the pair afterward for a celebratory dinner, according to sources close to the couple.
The engagement caps a whirlwind romance that became public in May 2023 when Allen and Steinfeld were photographed together during a trip to New York City. Since then, the couple has been seen supporting one another’s careers, with Steinfeld attending several Bills games and Allen joining her on red carpet events.
Fans of the couple took to social media to celebrate the news, with many calling them a “power couple” and praising their chemistry.
“Josh and Hailee are perfect together. This is the best news of 2024 so far!” one fan wrote on Twitter.
The engagement also comes during a crucial season for Allen, who has been leading the Buffalo Bills in their playoff push. Despite the pressures of his NFL career, the quarterback has frequently expressed gratitude for Steinfeld’s support, calling her his “rock” during an interview earlier this year.
The couple has not yet announced a wedding date, but sources say they are planning a private ceremony with close family and friends.
As the Bills continue their quest for a Super Bowl title, fans will undoubtedly keep a close eye on Allen — both on and off the field.
