Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen are continuing to fuel romance rumors after the pair attended a gender reveal party for Allen's pregnant sister over the weekend.

The Oscar-nominated actor and the Buffalo Bills quarterback looked cozy standing together in a cute TikTok video posted March 24 by Allen's sister Nicala Madden.

Steinfeld smiles up at Allen, whose arm is on her back, as both introduce themselves to the baby-on-the-way.

The rumored couple join other partygoers in guessing the sex of the second child Madden is expecting with husband Brayden Madden.

"I'm Josh," says Allen, sharing that he's the “brother of the mother." Allen says he believes the couple's new baby is going to be another boy.

“I’m kinda feeling like it’s going to be a boy too," agrees Steinfeld.

Turns out, the pair's guesses were correct. The video ends with the release of pink and blue balloons that shows the pink balloons drifting away, leaving only the blue.

"Blessed to love on another baby bo,y” Nicala Madden captioned the video, noting that the couple's first child, son Kashtyn "is going to make the best big brother ever."

Steinfeld and Allen have been romantically linked ever since they were first spotted together in New York City in May 2023.

Fans have spent nearly a year speculating about the status of “The Edge of Seventeen” actor and the NFL star, who have not confirmed their romance despite continuing to appear at events together.

Steinfeld's rumored romance with Allen takes a page out of her friend Taylor Swift's relationship with her own NFL boyfriend, Kansas City Chief's tight end Travis Kelce. Just like Swift's appearances alongside Kelce's mom, Donna Kelce, Steinfeld has been spotted hanging out with Allen's mom.

In a fun twist, Steinfeld, who appeared in Swift's 2015 music video for “Bad Blood,” attended the Bills playoff game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Jan. 21, which created the potential for a reunion between her and Swift, who also attended the game.

The Chiefs won the game 27 - 24, and went on to defeat the San Francisco 49ers to win the 2024 Super Bowl on Feb. 11.

Here’s what to know about the timeline of Steinfeld and Allen's rumored relationship.

May 2023: Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen are spotted out and about together

The actor and the NFL player were seen hanging out together around New York City in various photos shared by the New York Post and People, sparking romance rumors.

The same month, the pair reportedly were also photographed at a New York City sushi restaurant, Sushi By Bou.

August 2023: Josh Allen appears to address the relationship rumors publicly

Allen seemed to indirectly address his rumored relationship with Steinfeld in an Aug. 2 interview on the “Pardon My Take” podcast.

Co-host Dan Katz teased Allen about the romance rumors, working in a reference to Steinfeld by “accidentally” mispronouncing the name of a classic ‘90s sitcom.

“Are you a fan of Steinfeld?” Katz asked the NFL star.

Allen wasn’t taking the bait.

“I don’t know what Steinfeld is,” he deadpanned back. “The show? Big fan.”

But a moment later, Allen acknowledged Katz's accidentally-on-purpose “Steinfeld” slip-up.

“I didn’t know how I was going to work that in,” Katz said of his playful flub. “Did I do a good job?”

“You did a good job,” Allen said. “Respect. Respect.”

Shortly afterward, the quarterback talked about having a girlfriend, though he never mentioned Steinfeld by name.

The topic came up when co-host Eric Sollenberger (aka PFT Commenter) asked Allen if he had seen the recent news about his rumored relationship.

“There was a headline and it was just, ‘Josh Allen Makes Out With His Girlfriend on Vacation,’” Sollenberger said. “That’s awesome, that somebody writes an article about you making out with your girlfriend.”

“The fact that anybody cares about that still blows my mind,” Allen replied.

He added that it has been tough dealing with paparazzi attention.

“They were on a boat,” he said, referring to photographers he encountered on vacation. “I saw it and I just like, I just felt like this gross feeling. Insecurity, no privacy, just like, what is wrong with you?”

September 2023: Hailee Steinfeld attends Buffalo Bills game and shops with Josh Allen's mother

Steinfeld appeared to attend the Buffalo Bills game in September at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York.

On X, formerly known as Twitter, fans shared a photo on social media of a woman whom they identified as Steinfeld at the Sunday matchup.

In the photo, the woman who fans believe is Steinfeld wore a red baseball cap and a tan hoodie as Allen led the Bills to a 38-10 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders.

On Sept. 30, the shop Leveled Up Buffalo, located in East Aurora, New York, shared a picture on Instagram of Steinfeld shopping alongside Allen’s mom, Lavonne Allen.

The photo, which also included store owner Lindsey Vega, showed the three women smiling together, featuring two shopping bags. The store captioned the post, “Pinch me.”

Hailee Steinfeld has not commented on the rumored relationship

The “Pitch Perfect” star has never commented publicly on the rumored romance with Allen.

She has discussed her desire for privacy in the past when it comes to her love life.

“I feel so lucky that (my fans) care enough about me to know what I’m doing every second of every day, but I think that sometimes it’s hard for people in general to realize that there are boundaries to a person’s life and personal life,” she told Us Weekly back in 2018, addressing rumors at the time that she was dating former One Direction singer Niall Horan.

“I am a very private person,” she added. “I do love that I have the opportunity to share with them what I’m comfortable with and they’re there to listen and support me.”

Hailee Steinfeld is asked about a ‘football boy’

Steinfeld attended the Golden Globe Awards on Jan. 7 and was asked on the red carpet about the internet's obsession with "Hollywood girls loving the football boys," seemingly alluding to Steinfeld and Swift.

Steinfeld remained silent but gave the "E! News" host an eyebrow-raise and a smirk.

"What is it about a sportsy man?" the host asked.

"Listen, what isn't it about, come on now," Steinfeld replied.
