Hailee Steinfeld has said she feels “incredibly grateful and blessed” as she celebrated the birth of her first child in her newsletter.

The American actress, who recently starred in Sinners, shared a post on her Substack, Beau Society, on Thursday, to announce the birth of her baby girl.

Steinfeld, 29, called the post “special delivery” and attached a cartoon image of a stork carrying a baby.

She wrote: “Our baby girl has arrived.

“We’re feeling incredibly grateful and blessed and savouring these early moments. Thank you so much for the love and well wishes.”

Steinfeld signed off the post with love from her and her husband, NFL quarterback Josh Allen.

The name of the baby is yet to be announced.

The couple have kept their romantic life private since they started dating in 2023, and tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in 2025.

They announced they were expecting their first child together with a video posted on Instagram last year, which featured Allen kissing Steinfeld’s belly.

Award-winning actress Steinfeld started her career at a young age, landing an Oscar nod for her role in True Grit (2010) when she was 14.

She has also starred in films including The Edge Of Seventeen (2016), Bumblebee (2018) and the Pitch Perfect film franchise.

After starring in the musical Pitch Perfect films, she went on to release a string of pop hits including Flashlight, Love Myself and her top-10 track Starving.

She is the daughter of professional fitness trainer Peter Steinfeld who, according to his website, has worked with high-profile celebrity clients including Madonna, comedian Larry David and the late Ozzy Osbourne.
