Josh Allen’s fiancee Hailee Steinfeld is already being lauded as Buffalo royalty following her engagement to the Bills quarterback last week.
Allen and Steinfeld, who were first linked romantically back in May 2023, shared the same photo on social media Friday to confirm they are now engaged.
The picture shows the NFL superstar kissing his girlfriend while down on one knee after proposing in front of a picturesque coastal backdrop, along with the caption ’11•22•24′ – which suggests he popped the question a week ago.
And as she prepares to marry their beloved quarterback, Steinfeld has been given a new nickname by Bills fans online: ‘Queen of Buffalo’.
One user wrote after the engagement announcement: ‘Hailee Steinfeld (Hailee Allen) is the queen of Buffalo’
Another put: ‘Josh Allen’s fiancée, Hailee Steinfeld, is the new Queen of Buffalo!’

‘Oh btw Hailee is now queen of buffalo… go bills,’ said a third.
A fourth commented: ‘I’m so happy for them! We love our QB1 and Hailee seems so genuine and is absolutely stunning! King and Queen of Buffalo!’
While one simply concluded: ‘Buffalo’s royal wedding’.
The couple were first spotted together in May 2023, shortly after Allen had split from longtime girlfriend Brittany Williams.
Steinfeld, who enjoyed her breakthrough with an Oscar-nominated performance in True Grit, was seen alongside her new man in New York City.
They have since spent time in Mexico and at Paris Fashion Week but Allen and Steinfeld have – for the most part – kept their romance under wraps.
Allen has just enjoyed a brief break from NFL action after inspiring his team to a crucial win over back-to-back Super Bowl champions the Kansas City Chiefs two weeks ago.
However, when asked how his bye week was by reporters ahead of Sunday’s return to action against the San Francisco 49ers, he remained tight-lipped.

Travis Kelce sent congratulations to Allen and his fiancee after the engagement announcement
‘It was fantastic,’ he said with a wry smile while giving nothing away. ‘It was great. Got some sun, hung out with family… it was fantastic.’
Among millions of others, Travis Kelce sent his heartfelt congratulations to fellow NFL star Allen after the announcement.
Kelce, who is of course in a high-profile A-List relationship of his own with Taylor Swift, joined the 1.5 million users who liked the romantic social media post, while also sharing a message to the Bills icon.
‘Congratulations,’ the Kansas City Chiefs star wrote in the comments along with two applauding emojis and a couple of raised-hands icons – seemingly putting Buffalo’s Week 11 victory over his team behind them.
