All About Hailee Steinfeld’s Rumored Romance Josh Allen
Romance rumors have been swirling around actress Hailee Steinfeld and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, especially after they were seen on Saturday in New York City together. They were first spotted on Thursday, May 25, so if they are seeing one another that’s two dates in a week. The pair were spotted that night getting out of a black SUV before enjoying their evening together.
Here’s everything to know about Steinfeld’s rumored romantic interest Josh Allen so far.
Who is Josh Allen?
The football star once played for University of Wyoming, and was selected seventh overall by the Buffalo Bills in the 2018 NFL Draft after his stellar performance as an MVP. The 27-year-old took a couple years to warm up to NFL life, then lived up to his reputation with an incredible 202o season, leading the team to their first division title and playoff victory since 1995.
Allen’s personal life has been a big part of his story, as he had been dating longtime girlfriend Brittany Williams for eight years.
They first met as children, and even went to the Sadie Hawkins dance together in high school, but didn’t start dating until college. However, they have seemingly split. Fans of the player noted in May that he’d stopped following Williams on social media, though he still has some snapshots of his former girlfriend up on the timeline. Williams has unfollowed and deleted all of her photos with Allen.
How long have Allen and Steinfeld been dating?
Based on the very recent social media clues and very recent sightings, it likely hasn’t been long. Steinfeld was most recently dating Irish musician Niall Horan, starting in early 2018. They broke up less than a year later.
“They split months ago,” a source told US Weekly in December of that year. “Niall wrapped up his tour and had more free time, but Hailee’s work schedule really ramped up, so they didn’t have time for a relationship. They still have a lot of love for each other.”
