Josh Allen reveals what one year of marriage to Hailee Steinfeld actually looks like and it's adorable

Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld are now one year into marriage, and by every measure, things could not be going better. The couple married at San Ysidro Ranch in California on May 31, 2025, welcomed their first child this spring, and Allen recently turned 30. Speaking on the Centered on Buffalo Podcast with retired Bills center Eric Wood, the quarterback opened up about married life in a way that was equal parts honest and charming.

What is the one thing Josh Allen does that annoys Hailee Steinfeld?

During the conversation, Allen was asked about mutual pet peeves. When Wood pressed him to name something Steinfeld does that bothers him, Allen shut it down immediately. "Absolutely nothing, Eric," he said. Simple. Settled.

But before that, Allen had already admitted to one harmless habit that gets under his wife's skin. Whenever she reaches toward his beard to remove something, he instinctively pulls back with a sharp bark. He traced it straight to his father, Joel Allen, who used to do the exact same thing when Josh and his siblings touched his face as kids.

"If I got something in my beard or my mustache and she goes to reach for it, I always like bark and snap," Allen said. He added, "It's something my dad did. We'd be little kids, touching the whiskers on his face and he'd like, 'Arrrgggh!'"

He knows the reaction is coming. He cannot stop it. "Every time I do that, it gets her every single time, and I can't not do it. It's there for the taking, and I have to take it," he said.

How did Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld mark their first wedding anniversary?

On their first anniversary, Steinfeld posted a set of previously unseen photos from the wedding day, captioning them, "Oh to relive this day over and over…" Allen responded within minutes with one word: "Forever ❤️❤️."


Steinfeld had earlier given a more detailed account of the day in her newsletter, Beau Society. She wrote about blue skies and 75-degree weather throughout the weekend, the thunder and lightning that rolled in right after the ceremony with no rain, and the reception's rhythm of dancing, speeches, and tears. She described the entire experience as joyful and unforgettable, from the red candelabras to the chandeliers.

For a couple that just finished year one of marriage while also navigating new parenthood and an NFL offseason, they seem remarkably settled. No drama. No noise. Just Allen snapping at his wife's hand over his beard and calling it even.
