Sinners star Hailee Steinfeld and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen are two high-profile married celebs with demanding jobs – but both are very supportive of each other’s endeavors.
“I try to organize my time so I can be where he is. This time of year, I get to hunker down, slow down, support him and live life. When the offseason rolls around, it’s go-time for me,” she told Variety of the football season. And when asked about being “the second-most talented person in his marriage” on an episode of Hard Knocks, Allen didn’t flinch. “I’m OK with it. When we watched [Sinners] at the premiere, I was crying at the end. I was just so proud of her. I get emotional thinking about it.”
After establishing herself as an actress, Steinfeld – whose first film role as Mattie Ross in 2010’s True Grit earned her an Oscar nomination at age 14 – embarked on a musical journey. In 2015, she released her debut single “Love Yourself.” Then came her first EP HAIZ in 2016. She followed in 2020 with another EP Half Written Story, while releasing many singles in the meantime. Steinfeld even mixed her two worlds by starring in Pitch Perfect 2 and Pitch Perfect 3 and contributing to her screen project’s soundtracks, like “Back to Life” from Bumblebee, “Afterlife” from the Apple TV original series Dickinson, and “Dangerous” from Sinners. Of course, she has a long list of TV and movie credits to her name as well.
Meanwhile, Allen – who began his collegiate football days at Reedley College before transferring to the University of Wyoming – was drafted seventh overall by the Bills in 2018 and was named the NFL’s most valuable player in 2024, and leads his team perennially to the playoffs.
Take a look at the evolution of their relationship below. (And for other high-profile WAG relationship timelines, check out Taylor Swift’s and Travis Kelce’s, Cardi B and Stefon Diggs’, Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson’s and Madison Beer and Justin Herbert’s.)
