Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld’s moms unite after playoff loss

Before the Buffalo Bills took on the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC divisional round, fans wanted to know if Bills quarterback Josh Allen’s girlfriend, Hailee Steinfeld, would be in attendance.

Although Steinfeld avoids the jumbotron, the Oscar-nominated actress has attended nearly every Bills game this season. Hours before kickoff at Highmark Stadium on Jan. 21, Lindsay Vega, founder of Leveled Up Buffalo, said on her Instagram Stories that Steinfeld’s parents, Sheri and Peter, were shopping for Bill’s gear.

This is the same store Steinfeld went shopping at with Lavonne Allen, Josh’s mother, before week four. Steinfeld and her parents were not shown on the CBS broadcast during the Bills’ 27-24 loss to the Chiefs, nor was Allen’s family. However, fans of the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse star noticed that Lavonne followed Sheri on Instagram.

DeuxMoi, a celebrity gossip site, reported that Steinfeld watched the Chiefs-Bills playoff decider with her parents, Allen’s family, Paige Buechele, the wife of third-string quarterback Shane Buechele, and Summer Juraszek, the fiancée of backup quarterback Kyle Allen.

This won’t be the first Bills game Steinfeld’s parents have attended this season. Steinfeld was at Sophie Stadium with her family during the Bills’ 24-22 win over the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 16.

Hailee Steinfeld breaks her silence about dating Josh Allen while attending the Golden Globes

Allen and Steinfeld first started dating in May but kept a low profile. Steinfeld most recently celebrated her 27th birthday with Allen in December, which coincided with the Bills’ annual holiday party.

Steinfeld missed the Bills’ regular season finale because she was performing at the Golden Globes, during which she spoke publicly about her relationship with Allen for the first time. While walking the awards ceremony’s red carpet, Steinfeld successfully dodged engagement rumors. To the question: “What is it about a sports man?” She replied: “Listen, what are we talking about? Come on.”

Another reporter shouted, “Let’s get the bills going!” holding Stefon Diggs’ No. 14 jersey. Steinfeld smiled and gave a thumbs up, then shouted back, “That’s the wrong number, though.”

Steinfeld also made a big impression on Allen’s teammates. Ahead of the Bills’ AFC Divisional Round Pro Bowl, Dion Dawkins credited Steinfeld for Allen’s strong mindset heading into the playoffs.

Allen did everything he could to lead Buffalo to victory over the Chiefs. He completed 26 of 39 passes for 186 yards and a touchdown, along with 12 passes for 72 yards and two rushing scores. Speaking to reporters On January 22, Allen made no secret of how much the loss hurt him.

“When you feel like that, it makes winning even more special,” Allen said. “And this is not something we are going to run from. This is not something we are going to hide from. We have to accept that and keep learning and getting better, and I know that’s not what people want to hear. They want to see results. We want to see results. Just like you guys, we want to win and that’s a fact.”

The bill for next season is $43 million over the cap. They also have 21 players set to become free agents in March. However, Allen is confident the franchise will find a way to be stronger next year. He doesn’t believe the Bills’ Super Bowl window has closed.

“At the end of the season, there’s one happy team left,” Allen said. “We will continue to fight and work as hard as we can until we become one team. So, there is a long road ahead and a long off-season. We need to continue to work, get better in the offseason, get together with the guys and figure out what we can do to get over this hurdle.”
