Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors

Hailee Steinfeld's admiration for her fiancé Josh Allen isn't just a sideline cheer — it's a full-blown celebration.

In an interview posted with E! News on Tuesday, January 28, Steinfeld, 28, couldn't contain her pride when speaking about Allen's record-breaking achievements with the Buffalo Bills this season.

"To say the least, I am so proud of that man," Steinfeld shared of Allen, also 28. "Everything he's done and everything that the team has done together, he is the hardest working person I know."

The Hawkeye actress' compliment comes after Allen surpassed NFL legend Russell Wilson for the most wins by a quarterback in their first seven seasons. Even after the Buffalo Bills were eliminated from the playoffs by the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, January 26, Steinfeld support for her future husband was unwavering.

Although Allen's team won't be playing in the Super Bowl this year, Steinfeld is still set to make her mark during the big game. The Bumblebee star is set to appear in her first-ever Super Bowl commercial, partnering with Novartis to raise awareness about breast cancer risk screening. "It was so important to me, the idea and just the honor alone of being involved and partnering with Novartis," she said to E!. "It's going to reach so many people — just knowing that it's so empowering to know your body and know your risk."

The couple's love story took a major step forward when they got engaged in November 2024. Steinfeld and Allen shared their big news with fans via a joint Instagram post, showing off a stunning photo of the singer leaning down to kiss Allen, who was down on one knee under a floral arch with a beautiful sunset and ocean view behind them. The caption, "♾️ 11•22•24 ♾️," marked the day of the proposal.

The duo have been dating since 2023, and initially kept their relationship private. They made their first public appearance together in March 2024 during Paris Fashion Week.
