Hailee Steinfeld may be known for her powerful vocals and standout acting performances, but lately, her domestic side is making headlines—especially when it comes to her cooking. The actress and singer recently pushed back against criticisms of her culinary skills, offering a spirited defense that only someone close to NFL star Josh Allen could deliver.

Hailee Steinfeld shuts down cooking criticism while praising Josh Allen and teasing future together

During a promotional interview for her movie Sinners, Hailee Steinfeld responded to someone from her team who mentioned she was a good cook. Her reaction was both playful and pointed: "Oh wow! You heard it here, people, good cook, okay? See, there's this whole misconception that that's not the case. The nerves kicked in when there's cameras on you and you try to cook food. I am not all that bad!"
Her comments come after past moments in the spotlight, like her 2019 appearance at the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen where she struggled with the advanced pomme soufflé recipe—something she admits would trip up any amateur. But when it comes to her time with fiancé Josh Allen, Steinfeld insists cooking is a joyful and bonding activity.In a February interview with People, she described herself as a “real good sous chef”, adding that helping out in the kitchen is one of her favorite things to do with Allen, who just wrapped what many consider his most physically successful NFL season.The Buffalo Bills quarterback, entering his 8th year in the league, told media this offseason: “This is the best I've felt physically after a season.” He credited the team’s offensive scheme and line protection for keeping him relatively untouched throughout the year.With Allen healthy and focused on advancing the Bills’ Super Bowl hopes, and Steinfeld basking in the praise for her performance in Sinners, the power couple seems to be thriving both professionally and personally. From teasing kitchen debates to sharing real moments off the field, their story continues to resonate with fans.Also Read: “Sometimes you drift apart”: Hailee Steinfeld opens up on emotional heartbreak while Josh Allen plays it safe in the backgroundSteinfeld’s willingness to address the light-hearted criticisms—and set the record straight—shows her growing comfort in the public spotlight not just as an entertainer, but as a partner to one of the NFL’s brightest stars.
