Fans were questioning the lack of media coverage given to Hailee Steinfeld during the Bills-Ravens Divisional Round matchup.

Behind every successful man, there is a woman. This phrase holds good in the case of NFL players’ lives too. For Patrick Mahomes, that person is his wife Brittany, for Travis Kelce, it is Taylor Swift, and for Josh Allen, it has been Hailee Steinfeld.
The notable singer and actress has had a positive impact on Josh Allen’s life. He has credited his remarkable season and happiness in his life over the past year to her. The quarterback’s fiancee Hailee Steinfeld was present at Highmark Stadium to watch him play in one of the more crucial matchups of the year.
She must be his lucky charm because Josh Allen managed to hold off his peer Lamar Jackson and the fierce Baltimore Ravens in a closely fought matchup. Buffalo won 27-25 after Mark Andrews dropped a catch that would have sent the game into overtime.
Bills Mafia has been welcoming of Hailee Steinfeld
However, despite last night’s win, fans watching the game from the comfort of their homes had one objection. Hailee Steinfeld was not shown during the game broadcast. This was surprising because when the Chiefs were playing, the cameras kept panning to Taylor Swift at every chance possible.

Swift gets more air-time than players on the field. Fans have grown to be frustrated by the media’s fixation on her and Travis Kelce. However, things are different for Josh Allen and his beau. Bills Mafia has been welcoming of her and they have gone on to crown her as the ‘Queen of Buffalo’ alongside Allen who is revered as the ‘King of Buffalo!’ Fans took to X and began asking why Steinfeld was not being shown on air.
When the Chiefs are playing I constantly have to see Taylor Swift but I can’t get Hailee Steinfeld on my screen tonight?

Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen have succeeded in keeping their relationship private. Both of them enjoy time away from the public eye and cameras, which is why there are few images available of them together in a public setting.
Their relationship is different than Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s who despite their best attempts continue to be swarmed by media everywhere they go. Next week is bound to be fascinating as both Steinfeld and Swift are likely to be present to watch their respective partners battle one another.
