    Hailee Steinfeld is expecting her first child with Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen. The couple shared the news on Friday, December 12, 2025, posting a snowy video on Instagram in which Allen kisses her baby bump as she wears a sweatshirt printed with the word “mother.” The same clip also appeared in Steinfeld’s Beau Society Substack post tied to her 29th birthday, where she rounded up favorite moments from the year and ended with the pregnancy reveal.

    They have not shared a due date or the baby’s sex. The update comes about six months after their May 2025 wedding and closes a two-year relationship timeline that stayed mostly private between major milestones in the months leading up to this announcement. Readers may know Steinfeld from True Grit and Marvel’s Hawkeye, and 2025 saw her return to theaters with Sinners.


    How Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen announced the pregnancy, and what they shared

    The first confirmation came through a jointly shared Instagram video posted on December 12. In the clip, Steinfeld briefly lifts her outer layer to show her bump and the “mother” sweatshirt underneath. Allen kisses her stomach, the couple smile at the camera, and the video ends on a wider shot of them holding hands beside a tiny snowman. It confirms the pregnancy without adding context about timing, a due date, or what they are having.

    Hailee Steinfeld also placed the same video in her Beau Society Substack entry, which was built around a list of 29 favorite moments from the year for her 29th birthday. As per Substack dated December 13, 2025, Hailee Steinfeld stated,

    “This year, I’ve been reminded of how precious life is...., I found peace in simplicity: cooking breakfast with Josh, sinking into the perfect nighttime and morning routines, and talking to friends who see me clearly.”

    In the same entry, she reflected on slowing down and enjoying everyday routines with Allen, including cooking together. Because the couple did not attach any dates beyond the posting day, the most accurate framing is that they have not shared a due date publicly. Entertainment Weekly also noted that rumors circulated after Steinfeld attended the Governors Awards on November 16, 2025, but she and Allen did not comment then.
