Hailee Steinfeld Shares First Photos of Baby Girl

Hailee Steinfeld’s first Mother’s Day came with all the feelings — and now, finally, the photos to match.

On Monday, May 11, the Sinners actress posted an Instagram carousel from her very first Mother’s Day celebration, giving fans their first-ever look at the baby girl she and husband Josh Allen welcomed in April. “A day late but simply obsessed with this 💗,” Steinfeld, 29, wrote in the caption.

The post was everything you’d want. One photo showed the newborn’s tiny hand wrapped around Steinfeld’s finger as she lay on a white blanket, a peek of yellow sweater visible in frame. Another captured the baby’s little legs and feet in a white-and-black polka dot onesie with strawberries on the feet. The rest of the carousel filled in the holiday picture: handwritten Mother’s Day cards, a pancake brunch spread complete with fresh flowers, and a white-frosted cake that read “Happy Mother’s Day.” Fans quickly noticed the brunch spread appeared to be a full-on Wegmans haul, which, honestly, tracks.

Jeremy Renner — Steinfeld’s co-star from Hawkeye — didn’t miss the moment. He dropped into the comments to write, “Happy New Mothers Day !!! I am so very happy for you.”

A Family of Three, One Month In

Steinfeld first announced the birth through her Beau Society newsletter on April 2. “Our baby girl has arrived!!” she wrote. “We’re feeling incredibly grateful and blessed and savoring these early moments. Thank you so much for the love and well wishes.” The following day, she added: “To say we are unbelievably happy and in love with this baby girl would be an understatement. I’m soaking in the newborn bliss.”

The couple has not yet publicly shared their daughter’s name, though back in January, Steinfeld posted a photo of a knit sweater embroidered with “Baby Beau” — a sweet nod to her Beau Society community that had fans speculating ever since.

Allen, the Buffalo Bills quarterback and reigning NFL MVP, didn’t slow down much after becoming a dad — he cut his paternity leave short to return to Buffalo for voluntary workouts on April 7. But at a press conference on April 20, he made clear exactly where his head is at.

“It definitely changes the mindset a little bit,” Allen told reporters. “I’m very excited. I do think this is going to be the best version of myself in all aspects — my professional career and my personal life. It’s such a blessing.”

He also made sure to give his wife her flowers. “I’ve got an absolute rockstar of a wife that’s doing so many things right now and allowing me to be here right now and be with my teammates. Special times.”

When someone asked if he’d been getting any sleep with a newborn at home, Allen laughed. “No. But I wouldn’t want it any other way. It’s very rewarding.”

The Road Here

It’s been a lot of life packed into two years for these two. Steinfeld and Allen first started dating in May 2023, got engaged on November 22, 2024, and married on May 31, 2025 in a stunning ceremony at San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara, California. At the reception, they walked off the aisle to “Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I’m Yours)” — and then it thundered. No rain, just lightning. Steinfeld called it magical, and honestly, hard to argue.

Youth National Poet Laureate Amanda Gorman wrote and read a poem at the ceremony. Steinfeld finally shared the words in her May 8 newsletter: “These two are the terrific proof that only when all of ourselves do we give, have we ever truly loved. And only when we have ever truly loved, have we ever truly lived.”

They announced the pregnancy in December 2025, with Allen kissing Steinfeld’s bare belly in an Instagram video while the two held hands next to a miniature snowman. In the months that followed, Steinfeld wrote openly in her newsletter about the emotional weight of becoming a mother for the first time.

“The most profound and grounding part of getting ready for this baby has been the introspective side of it,” she shared in February. “Sometimes I find myself asking big, lofty questions — ‘What am I going to be like as a mom?’ — or having vivid daydreams of what our life is about to look like when the three of us are cuddled up in the nursery together.”

She and Allen were, she wrote, “getting ready to meet someone we already love so much.” And then: “I’ve racked my brain for words to describe that feeling, and I don’t have them yet. Maybe that’s the point.”

Now they have the words. And the strawberry pajamas. And the tiny hand wrapped around a finger on a white blanket.

Simply obsessed with this, indeed.
