Following the recent engagement announcement of Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen and actress Hailee Steinfeld, fans are eagerly speculating about the couple's wedding plans. Allen and Steinfeld shared the exciting news on Friday, November 29th, revealing the engagement with a photo from November 22nd.
Allen couldn't have possibly had a better bye-week.
During a pregame chat at Buffalo's Highmark Stadium ahead of the Bills' snowy matchup against the San Francisco 49ers on December 1st, NBC sideline reporter Melissa Stark reported that Allen was "all smiles." He disclosed that the proposal took place in Malibu and that Steinfeld was "very" surprised when he dropped to one knee.
As for wedding plans, Stark mentioned that the couple has not yet set a date and are still "figuring out" the best timeframe for their nuptials.
After the game, which ended in a 35-10 victory for the Bills, Allen reflected on a remarkable play during the match where he threw and caught a touchdown on the same play.
“I threw a bad ball,” he explained, recalling his concern that it might get intercepted. He made eye contact with Bills wide receiver Amari Cooper who tossed the ball back to him allowing Allen to make the play. The moment left even Allen a bit bewildered, as he asked Stark if he would receive credit for both a passing and receiving touchdown. “You do,” Stark confirmed, to which Allen responded with a laugh, “That’s pretty cool.”
The Bills are set to return to action on December 8th against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.
In the wake of their engagement, the couple's famous friends have taken to social media to celebrate. Actress Elizabeth Banks, who directed Steinfeld in 2015’s "Pitch Perfect 2," commented, “Amazing news!👏”
Longtime friend Bailee Madison expressed her joy, writing, “Forever!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ so happy for you both and can’t wait to see the magic and love you fill your life together with!!!!!!! Love youuuuuu!!”
As the couple enjoys this exciting new chapter, fans are excited for when they will officially tie the knot.
