Following reports that the Buffalo Bills player is engaged to Hailee Steinfeld, certain Instagram remarks went viral, putting Josh Allen‘s ex-girlfriend Brittany Williams in deep water. In response to one of Williams’ posts, a social media user asked if she “hadn’t found her next pro athlete yet.”
Williams’ account responded to the user with a comment after it was revealed that Allen, 28, and Steinfield, 27, were engaged.
Williams’ account retorted ruthlessly: “Luckily my boyfriend owns a team and doesn’t play for one. don’t have to be with another brain-dead CTE athlete,”
Brittany Williams responded on her Instagram Stories after the statement went viral on social media. She wrote, deleting both her response and the initial comment: “My accounts have been hacked several times tonight. Trying to get it resolved. If anyone has any tips please Imk,”

The history of dating between Williams and Josh Allen
After being childhood friends, Allen and Williams dated for almost ten years. They broke up in early 2023, though, and by May of that year, Allen was connected to Steinfeld. They made their first public debut at a Buffalo Sabres game in October 2023.
In July, they embraced in front of the Eiffel Tower, officially announcing their romance on Instagram.
In the October issue of her newsletter Beau Society, Steinfeld talked candidly about their connection. She spoke of a time around the holidays when the two unintentionally gave each other an identical Christmas present—a kitchen knife.
She wrote: “After we exchanged our knives lol, he told me there’s an old wives’ tale that if you gift your significant other a knife, you have to pay for it, otherwise it signifies the severing of a relationship,”.
“So we exchanged quarters to avoid the bad omen.”
