- NFL. Hailee Steinfeld preps for dream wedding with Bills star Josh Allen, as career and mental health thrive
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen and actress Hailee Steinfeld are preparing to say "I do" in Southern California this Saturday, May 31. The couple, who have been together for over a year, have kept wedding details largely private, opting for an intimate ceremony away from the public eye. Steinfeld, a California native, owns properties in both Encino and Thousand Oaks, while Allen has a home in Dana Point, fueling speculation about the wedding's location.
The engagement was short but memorable, with Allen proposing to Steinfeld in November during the Bills' bye week. His grand gesture took place in Malibu, a favorite retreat for the couple, and was widely celebrated by fans and friends alike. The two have since navigated wedding planning with discretion, preferring to keep specifics under wraps.
One of Allen's closest teammates, offensive lineman Dion Dawkins, joked that his gift to the quarterback is ensuring his well-being on the field. In a Friday interview on The Rich Eisen Show, Dawkins playfully stated, "Josh can walk down the aisle in one piece, and be happy that he's walking down the aisle with all fingers and all toes." The remark underscored the trust and camaraderie between the quarterback and his linemen, highlighting their responsibility in protecting Allen during games.
Everyone is having a say in this
Steinfeld, an Oscar nominee and star of the recent box-office hit Sinners, has been a staple in Hollywood since her breakthrough in True Grit at age 14. Allen, meanwhile, has cemented himself as one of the NFL's top quarterbacks, earning MVP honors this past season. With both bringing multimillion-dollar success to their marriage, their union marks a blend of entertainment and sports royalty.
Wedding gifts may be difficult to decide for a couple with such high-profile careers and wealth. But for Allen, the real gift seems to be the chance to celebrate his nuptials without any injuries from the field-something he jokingly credited to Dawkins and his offensive line. As for Steinfeld, the Bills superfan is undoubtedly thrilled to see her fiancé walk down the aisle ready for their future together.
As the weekend approaches, fans and well-wishers eagerly anticipate glimpses of the newlyweds. Though details remain elusive, one thing is certain-their wedding will be an unforgettable moment for both Hollywood and NFL circles.
