Hailee Steinfeld recently shared in her Beau Society newsletter that she scheduled an emergency call with my therapist at 11 p.m. after feeling triggered by conversations about having it all. The actress, who married Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, admitted she was looking for validation instead of an honest answer during a moment of self-doubt.

Steinfeld wrote that she felt “bummed or discouraged or even more confused” after having conversations about the concept of “having it all”. She said that these feelings “hit [her] like bricks”.
Through the conversation, she realized she “didn’t actually want an honest answer,” but instead “wanted to hear some version of, ‘Of course, you got this. It’s all going to work out'”.
Steinfeld, in aninterview with Variety, discussed how marrying Josh Allen helped her mental well-being by bringing a new balance to her life. She stated, “The greatest thing about being married to Josh is understanding what it means to slow down and to share that with someone”.
She explained that his highly structured NFL schedule contrasts with her unpredictable Hollywood career, providing a welcome rhythm that has taught her to appreciate life outside of work. She was experiencing a side of life she hadn’t encountered outside of her career.

Steinfeld and Josh Allen were first linked in May 2023 after being seen together in New York City. The outing came shortly after Allen’s breakup with his previous girlfriend. Sourcestold People that the pair had been “hanging out for a few weeks” and were “having fun” getting to know each other.
The couple gradually became more open about their relationship. Allen made it official on Instagram with photos from their romantic trip to Paris. By November 2024, he took the next step, proposing to Steinfeld in Malibu.
The quarterback’s MVP-caliber season carried an emotional highlight at the 2025 NFL Honors, where he thanked his fiancée on stage, saying, “You’ve been my rock and my best friend. I wouldn’t be here without you.” They sealed their storybook romance on May 31, 2025, in an intimate ceremony in Montecito, California.
Allen couldn’t stop praising his new wife since they had been together. When he returned to training camp, he told reporters that marrying Steinfeld was “the most important decision I’ll make in my life—and I made the right one.”
Steinfeld reflected that sentiment in her Beau Society newsletter, sharing intimate peeks from their wedding weekend and reminding fans that, fame aside, they still treasure the quiet moments that belong only to them.
