In a romantic waterfront setting, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen bent a knee and proposed to pop star girlfriend Hailee Steinfeld, marking an unforgettable moment for the couple and their fans.

AceShowbiz - The love story between Hailee Steinfeld, 27, and Josh Allen, 28, has had the public enthralled since May 2023 when they were first spotted together during a sushi date in New York City. Their romance has since culminated into a romantic engagement.
Allen proposed against a breathtaking sunset backdrop, framed by a flower arch. The couple announced their engagement on Instagram a week later, with a heartwarming photo of Steinfeld kissing Allen. They simply captioned it with the date of their engagement, November 22.
Their Instagram post sparked an outpouring of well-wishes from fans and celebrities alike. The Bills' official Instagram commented, "LET'S GOOOOOO!!" while Chad Michael Murray commented, "Congrats brother!!!"
The couple's relationship has not been without its challenges. Allen shared on the "Pardon My Take" podcast in August 2023 that the media attention was overwhelming. He described the invasive attempts by photographers to snap their photos, even recalling a specific incident of a photographer on a boat. Despite these pressures, Steinfeld has been a supportive partner, seen cheering Allen from the stands and spending quality time with his family.
They went Instagram official in July 2024, sharing a beautiful snapshot from Paris in front of the Eiffel Tower. Their shared moments, including attending the Golden Globes together and spending time at an NHL game in Buffalo, reflect a couple deeply in sync.
Steinfeld even revealed in her newsletter "Beau Society" that they navigated the "bad omen" of buying each other the same Christmas gift - a cooking knife, by humorously exchanging quarters to avoid jinxing their relationship.
As their engagement marks a new chapter, it's clear that Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen are focused on nurturing their love away from the public eye, cherishing the time they share together. Their journey from a sushi date to a waterfront proposal is a testament to their commitment and affection for each other.
While they have tried to keep their relationship under wraps, the couple's growing bond became undeniable. "They've been head over heels from the start," a source tells PEOPLE.
