Yet, as heartfelt as his words were, the internet had other plans—drawing comparisons to his ex-girlfriend Brittany Williams and even referencing Travis Kelce's own high-profile romance.
Josh Allen calls Hailee Steinfeld his 'best friend' after marriage, but fans aren't letting go of the past
Speaking to the press on June 10, Josh Allen glowed as he shared: 'None other than marrying my best friend. She makes everything easier. I don't really focus on the other stuff; that was the most important decision I'll make in my life, and I made the right one.'
The couple tied the knot at the end of May, with Steinfeld recently posting a photo from the wedding to her Instagram newsletter page Beau Society, captioned, 'We're married! More to come…' She stunned in a classic gown with sheer opera gloves and a sleek bun, while Allen opted for understated elegance.
Fan reactions are mixed as Brittany Williams is brought into the spotlight again
While many fans congratulated the couple and admired their wedding glow, others brought drama to the celebration. Social media erupted with comments questioning Allen's public praise of Hailee, especially in contrast to his past with Brittany Williams. One user asked, 'So Brittany didn't make it easier since you was with her for 8 years and Hailee is living in the house SHE helped build?'
Others were more blunt—'This is the only ring he will ever receive,' one fan wrote, clearly throwing shade at Allen's postseason record.
Another predicted doom: 'They will be divorced in less than 5 years.'

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson given one reason why he needs to win a Super Bowl title: ‘The next step'
NFL legend Ryan Clark has pointed out the one reason why the Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson needs to absolutely win a Super Bowl. Speaking on ESPN's 'First Take' along with Cam Newton, Clark charted the evolution of the 'black quarterback' in the NFL. 'I wanna say it to you and I want to say it to Randall Cunningham and I want to say it to Russell Wilson and I want to say it to Michael Vick. This is the evolution of the position. Without Randall Cunningham having to try to conform and be a pocket passer and also show his athleticism, we don't get to Michael Vick. And without Michael Vick accepting that and working to become a better passer and better leader, we don't get a Cam Newton. If Cam Newton doesn't bring the style of play that he had the opportunity to bring from Auburn to the NFL and win an MVP doing it, we don't have a Lamar Jackson,' Clark said on the show. Ryan Clark said that each of the quarterbacks named has been needed to get to this point due to the negativity surrounding African-Americans playing at that position. 'And that's why we need Lamar Jackson to take that next step and hold that Lombardi trophy the same way we all cried when Doug Williams did it in the 80s,' the former safety added. Lamar Jackson has won the NFL MVP award twice so far, in the 2019 and 2023 seasons. But he has yet to win a Super Bowl title, and he came so close to it the last time he won the MVP. The Baltimore Ravens lost to the eventual winners, the Kansas City Chiefs, in the AFC championship game in the 2023 season. Many have been critical of Jackson and his quarterback style, which involves using his legs as much as his arms. Winning a Super Bowl title would cement his already impressive legacy in the league, and that would surely silence his critics.

'This fall will be completely different': Taylor Swift's new routine fuels Travis Kelce retirement rumors
Taylor Swift is expected to have a more prominent presence at Kansas City Chiefs games (Getty Images) As the 2025 NFL season approaches, all eyes are on Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce—and not just for what he brings on the field. This year could mark a turning point in both his professional career and his personal life, with girlfriend Taylor Swift expected to play a much bigger role on the sidelines than ever before. With no tour in sight, Taylor Swift plans to support Travis Kelce at games more regularly Unlike previous years, when Taylor Swift had to juggle sold-out shows across the globe, the pop superstar's 2025 calendar is unusually wide open. This means she may finally get the chance to fully embrace her role as Travis Kelce's biggest cheerleader. 'Taylor is really looking forward to the upcoming NFL season. Not just because she loves supporting Travis, but because for the first full season since they started dating, she's not juggling a packed tour schedule,' a source told PEOPLE. 'This fall will be completely different. It's the first season where she's not constantly flying back and forth or working around an entire touring calendar.' The timing couldn't be more perfect. Kelce, 35, is rumored to be considering retirement after the 2025 season, making this potentially his last run with the Chiefs. And having Swift by his side—consistently—could make this final chapter all the more meaningful. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Could this season become Travis Kelce's fairytale farewell? Kelce's bond with Swift has captured the imagination of NFL fans and Swifties alike. Her presence at games last season sparked viral moments, boosted jersey sales, and even brought new demographics into the world of football. But this fall, her involvement might go deeper than celebrity cameos. With Swift attending more games and enjoying a less chaotic schedule, the couple could experience a level of normalcy they've never had before. For Chiefs fans, this adds an emotional layer to what may already be a farewell season for one of the franchise's all-time greats.

And if this is indeed the last dance for No. 87, it may be one filled with unforgettable moments—on and off the field.
