Josh Allen is already making his mark as an NFL MVP contender after a dominant Week 2 win over the Miami Dolphins. He lit up the field with two rushing touchdowns and three passing touchdowns, spreading the ball to nine different receivers. Clearly, Allen is thriving on the field—but that’s not the only place he’s winning.
It turns out that his love life is heating up, too. Allen recently went public with his relationship with Hailee Steinfeld, the singer and actress known for her role as Marvel’s Hawkeye. The two have been quietly dating since around May of last year, and it looks like things are going strong both on and off the field for the Bills’ star QB.
Who Is Josh Allen’s Girlfriend, Hailee Steinfeld?
Hailee Steinfeld was born on December 11, 1996, in the Tarzana neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. She’s the youngest of two children, born to Cheri, an interior designer, and Peter Steinfeld, a personal trainer. Hailee has an older brother named Griffin, and her family has some notable connections. Her paternal uncle is Jake Steinfeld, a well-known fitness trainer and actor, while her maternal great-uncle, Larry Domasin, was a former child actor. Hailee’s passion for acting was sparked by her cousin, actress True O’Brien, who appeared in a TV commercial when Hailee was just eight, inspiring her to follow a similar path.
Steinfeld comes from a diverse background. Her father is Jewish, and her mother is Christian. On her maternal side, her grandfather, Ricardo Domasin, was of mixed Filipino and African-American descent. Hailee grew up in Agoura Hills and later moved to Thousand Oaks, California. She attended several schools, including Ascension Lutheran School, Conejo Elementary, and Colina Middle School. By 2008, she transitioned to homeschooling, completing her education in June 2015, when she graduated from high school.

Hailee Steinfeld broke into Hollywood early, earning her first big acting break at just 14 when she starred in the 2011 Coen brothers film True Grit. Her role as Mattie Ross landed her an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress and earned her the Critics Choice Award for Best Young Performer.
Steinfeld’s talents don’t stop with acting. She showed off her singing skills in the Pitch Perfect film series, where she performed the original song “Flashlight.” That performance caught the attention of Republic Records, leading to a music deal. She dropped her first single, “Love Myself,” followed by her debut EP, Haiz, in 2015. Since then, she’s released a string of successful singles and, in 2020, put out her second EP, Half Written Story.
While her music career has taken off, Steinfeld’s acting has soared even higher. Alongside her standout performances in True Grit and Pitch Perfect, she’s appeared in major films like Ender’s Game (2013), Begin Again (2013), The Edge of Seventeen (2016), Bumblebee (2018), and voiced Gwen Stacy in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. In 2020, Steinfeld officially joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the new Hawkeye and signed a multi-project deal, meaning she’s set to reprise her role in future films and series.
As the Bills’ season opener approached, Steinfeld revealed that her Netflix show Arcane: League of Legends, where she voices Vi, will release its second and final season in November. The animated series is based on the hit game from Riot Games, League of Legends.
How Did Josh Allen Meet Hailee Steinfeld?
Rumors about Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld’s relationship began in May 2023 when they were seen together in New York, followed by a vacation in Los Cabos, Mexico. Adding more buzz, Steinfeld was spotted shopping for Buffalo Bills gear in New York with Allen’s mother, further fueling the speculation.
By July 2024, Allen made their relationship official on Instagram by posting a photo of them together in Paris. Interestingly, Steinfeld had already shared photos from that same trip back in April, but only of herself. It’s now clear that Allen was likely the one behind the camera. In her recently launched newsletter, Beau Society, Steinfeld shared details about their Paris trip, calling it a memorable time spent together in the City of Love.
Throughout the previous season, Steinfeld attended nearly all of the Bills’ games, staying out of the public eye and avoiding too much attention. Now that their relationship is more public, keeping a low profile might be more challenging for her. Despite sharing their Paris photos in July, Allen has stayed relatively private about the relationship.
During an August interview with Kay Adams on Up & Adams, when Adams playfully mentioned their relationship, Allen kept it light, while his teammate, Dalton Kincaid, was more open, confirming that everyone on the team already knew and praised Steinfeld. Steinfeld also gave fans a glimpse into their time in Paris, describing how she and Allen spent their mornings hunting for the best chocolate croissants, visiting different bakeries, and rating each one.
Who is Josh Allen’s ex-girlfriend?
Josh Allen and Brittany Williams had a relationship from childhood friendship to college romance. They first met at a birthday party when they were just eight years old, as their families were friends. Growing up in the same social circles, they remained close throughout their school years. Their friendship deepened in high school, and when Allen left for college at the University of Wyoming and Williams attended Fresno State as a cheerleader, they finally began dating in 2017.
Their relationship appeared solid, with the couple even building a home together in Buffalo, where they lived with their dog while Allen was establishing himself as the Bills’ star quarterback. Over the years, Williams frequently supported Allen, attending his games and sharing photos of their life on social media. It seemed like they were in it for the long haul, as they had known each other for most of their lives.
However, by April 2023, signs of trouble emerged. Williams unfollowed Allen on social media and deleted nearly all traces of their relationship from her Instagram account, which caught the attention of fans and fueled rumors of a breakup. In May 2023, while attending the Kentucky Derby with a friend, Williams playfully joked that they were “accepting husband applications,” further hinting that her relationship with Allen had ended. Despite their deep-rooted history and shared experiences, the couple ultimately parted ways after six years.
