Steinfeld and Allen were first romantically linked in May 2023. The pair stepped out for their first public appearance together at an NHL game in October 2023, but did not confirm their relationship until nearly a year later. In July 2024, the couple went Instagram official with their romance, with Allen sharing a photo of them posing together in front of the Eiffel Tower.
Meanwhile, although Allen and Kelce aren’t on the same team, the two are friends, with the NFL stars both even starring in a Pepsi commercial together earlier this year.
Allen also shared his thoughts on the NFL’s broadcast coverage of Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, and her highly-publicized attendance at Chiefs games, telling PEOPLE in October 2023 that it’s “obviously good for the brand.”
“I think it’s attracted a lot of viewers to what we’re doing, and I guess in this business, you’re either growing or you’re dying,” he added at the time.
Swift and Steinfield, meanwhile, go away back. The latter was one of the members of Swift’s girl squad who appeared in the “Bad Blood” music video back in 2015. While Swift has yet to comment on Steinfeld and Allen’s post, she “liked” the photo of the engagement news.
