Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is aware that some of his quirks annoy his wife, actress Hailee Steinfeld.
“If I got something in my beard or my mustache, and she goes to reach for it, I always, like, bark and snap,” Allen, 30, said on the Thursday, May 21, episode of the “Centered on Buffalo” podcast, detailing Steinfeld’s pet peeves. “It’s something my dad did.”
According to Allen, his own father would growl whenever the future Bills athlete attempted to touch the “whiskers” on his face.
“Every time I do that, it gets her every single time,” Allen admitted. “I can’t not do it. It’s, like, there for the talking and I have to take it.”
Allen and Steinfeld, 29, started dating in 2023, eventually walking down the wedding aisle two years later in 2025. Allen also revealed on Thursday that there’s “absolutely nothing” that bothers him about the Sinners star’s daily habits.
Not only does Allen find his wife practically perfect, but she recently went above and beyond for his milestone 30th birthday celebration.
“I’ve been thinking a lot about Josh’s 30th birthday. Officially, it was yesterday, but we’re celebrating through the weekend,” she wrote in the Friday, May 22, edition of her “Beau Society” newsletter. “This is his first birthday as a dad, which means we get to spend it with our little lady.”
Steinfeld, who announced last month that she recently gave birth to the couple’s first baby, has even more fanfare in store in the coming days.
“Over the next few days, there will be lots of cake, quality time with close friends, and of course, some golfing,” Steinfeld teased in her newsletter. “At this point in my life, birthdays are a lot simpler.”
Josh Allen can’t wait for the newest member of Bills Mafia to arrive. “I’ve got siblings that have kids, I’ve got a lot of friends that have kids and I don’t know if you can plan too far in advance,” Allen, 29, said in a press conference on Thursday, January 29, when asked about balancing […]
She added, “In this chapter of life, it’s the little birthday things — having breakfast together as a family, a quick ‘I’m so grateful you were born’ message — that mean the most to me.”
For Allen’s 30, Steinfeld presented her spouse with a DIY gift.
“I love crafts, so I get really into handmade gifts. For Josh’s gift, I had a little help from two tiny feet,” she wrote, hinting at her newborn daughter’s assistance. “This week, as I was digging through old photos, finding some I’d completely forgotten about, I sent them to Josh along with the memory it brought up for me. … You can show your love in so many different ways.”
Neither Allen nor Steinfeld have publicly revealed their daughter’s name or date of birth.
