Pregnant Hailee Steinfeld Hints at Baby Name With Josh Allen

She added, "It’s a childhood nickname that I never dropped.”

Hailee—who tied the knot with Josh in May—first shared the news of her pregnancy in a December newsletter on her Substack, posting a video of Josh kissing her growing belly.

At the time, she celebrated turning 29, writing, "28 was wild, beautiful, humbling, and full of the kind of moments that sneak up and change you quietly. This year, I’ve been reminded of how precious life is."

And the Hawkeye actress and Buffalo Bills quarterback were “of course” thinking about children after getting married, with Hailee sharing how meaningful her new life with Josh has become.

“That inner peace that you have, that rock, that solid, consistent part of your life is indescribable,” she told Bustle in November. “I literally thank God every day that I found my person, and it’s the greatest thing in the world. Life makes sense. Everything makes sense. I feel like I am stepping into the version that I’ve always dreamed of being, having so much to do with being with him.”

And Josh was equally excited about stepping into his new role amid the support he and Hailee experienced from those around them.

“The love that I’ve received from my teammates and friends? It’s been really cool,” he said in a December post-game interview. “It’s a special moment in [me and] my wife’s life.”
