Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is celebrating both a memorable NFL season and a significant personal milestone after marrying actress and singer Hailee Steinfeld. Allen, fresh off an MVP-winning season, shared his first social media post as a husband, referring to Steinfeld with the affectionate term “Wifey.”
Allen’s 2023 NFL campaign was highly impressive, as he threw for 3,731 yards along with 28 touchdowns and six interceptions. He also contributed 531 rushing yards and 12 rushing touchdowns, helping the Bills advance to the AFC Championship Game, where they were ultimately defeated by the Kansas City Chiefs.
His offseason, however, marked a new chapter beyond football. On May 31, Allen and Steinfeld exchanged vows in Ventura, California, in a ceremony surrounded by close friends and family. This event took place just over six months after Allen proposed to Steinfeld in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. For the wedding, Steinfeld wore a long white gown paired with elegant opera gloves, creating a classic and stunning bridal look.
Though photos from their celebration have been shared over time, Allen’s recent Instagram post was the first public message from him as a married man. The 6-foot-5 quarterback simply captioned his post with “Wifey,” highlighting his deep affection for Steinfeld and their new life together.
Hailee Steinfeld Reflects on Wedding Day Emotions
Steinfeld opened up about the emotional impact of the wedding dress and the day itself in the June 13 edition of her Beau Society newsletter. She described being breathless when seeing herself in the dress, saying,
“On our wedding day, when I put on this dress, I actually lost my breath,”
and added,
“I’ve never felt more like myself and more beautiful.”
In addition, Steinfeld shared how the beginning of married life has felt for the couple. Reflecting on the first two weeks after the wedding, she said,
“Now we’re back, and it’s been a whole 13 days of being married, and we’ll be staying on this high forever!”
Supportive Partnership Both On and Off the Field
Since their relationship began, Hailee Steinfeld has been a supportive presence at many of Allen’s Buffalo Bills games. Her attendance includes significant moments such as the Bills’ commanding 31-7 victory over the Denver Broncos in the Wild Card Round. This partnership highlights the blend of Allen’s athletic career with Steinfeld’s artistic endeavors, reflecting a strong bond off the field.
Josh Allen describing Hailee Steinfeld as “Wifey” publicly not only marks a sweet moment in their personal journey but also signals the stability and happiness the couple shares as they embark on married life. Their union, celebrated amidst professional successes and personal joy, is likely to remain a prominent story in both sports and entertainment communities moving forward.
