Hailee Steinfeld praised the Bills Mafia for a kindhearted gesture toward her and quarterback Josh Allen.
On November 22nd, Allen, 28, proposed to the 27-year-old actress, a milestone they posted on Instagram days later.
With her fiancée being a beloved figure in Buffalo, the fanbase congratulated the couple with a billboard on top of one of the city’s buildings, reading, ‘The Queen City has a new queen.’
‘Congratulations, Josh and Hailee,’ it continued at the bottom.
The billboard also featured a queen card on the left, supposedly depicting Steinfeld, and another card on the left with the No 17 and a cartoon portrayal of Allen with his Bills helmet.
Writing in her Beau Society newsletter, Steinfeld extended her graтιтude toward the fans for the gift.
