Actor Hailee Steinfeld and NFL star Josh Allen announced their engagement in an Instagram post in November.

The "True Grit" star, 28, and the Buffalo Bills quarterback, 28, both shared a photo on social media of the moment Allen got down on one knee to propose.

The image, which showed them framed in an arch of pink roses and surrounded by candles, was captioned with two infinity symbols and the date "11β€’22β€’24."

While the pair have a way to go to match the Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce hype, their engagement led to an outpouring of well-wishes from friends and fans.

Following the announcement, here's a complete timeline of their relationship.

May 2023: Steinfeld and Allen are spotted together for the first time.

Shortly after it was rumored that Allen had broken up with his then-girlfriend, social media influencer Brittany Williams, the quarterback was spotted out with Steinfeld.

In paparazzi photos published by the New York Post, Allen and Steinfeld were seen out together in New York City.

The couple were also spotted on Memorial Day weekend at a sushi spot in Chelsea.

August 2023: Allen addressed speculation about their relationship on a podcast.

Appearing on the "Pardon My Take" podcast, Allen was asked if he'd seen headlines about him "making out with his girlfriend."

Responding to the jibe, Allen said: "The fact that anybody cares about that still blows my mind."

He added that photographers who try to take photos of the pair when they're together give him a "gross feeling," recalling one specific incident where he spotted a photographer hiding "on a boat" in an attempt to capture a private date.

"[I was] like, 'What is wrong with people,'" the athlete said, adding that there was "no privacy" during the trip.

October 2023: Steinfeld is seen supporting Allen at a Bills game in London.

"The Dickinson" star was captured on cameras at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium supporting Allen as the Buffalo Bills took on the Jacksonville Jaguars in October 2023.

The actor was sat beside race car driver Daniel Ricciardo, who is one of Allen's close friends, according to Us Weekly.

While on the red carpet before the award ceremony, Steinfeld avoided going into detail about her relationship with Allen.

According to People, in a since-deleted TikTok video, a reporter asked Steinfeld how she was feeling about the night while holding up a Bills jersey β€” seemingly in reference to the fact that Allen was playing a game against the Miami Dolphins that weekend.

Steinfeld responded, "real good," and began walking away before turning around and adding that the shirt had the "wrong number."

Elsewhere on the carpet, the Oscar nominee addressed rumors she that was engaged, telling an E! News reporter that she was only wearing a ring because she thought it was "real cute."

Trying to get the actor to open up about her relationship, the reporter asked: "What is it about a sportsy man?"

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

July 2024: The couple goes Instagram official.

Allen hard launched his relationship with Steinfeld with an Instagram post in July.

In a carousel of photos, captioned "Onward," Allen shared some glimpses into their romance, including a photo of the pair taken on a balcony overlooking the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

October 2024: Steinfeld opens up about her relationship with Allen in a newsletter.

Steinfeld launched a newsletter titled Beau Society in August and has been communicating with her fans through weekly missives since.

In one installment sent in late October, she opened up about how she and Allen avoided a "bad omen" in their relationship.

She recalled how for Christmas, the couple got each other the same chef's knife in different colors because they loved to cook together.

"After we exchanged our knives lol, he told me there's an old wive's 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 so we didn't have that bad omen," she wrote in the newsletter, per Sports Illustrated.

November 2024: The couple get engaged.

Allen and Steinfeld posted a joint photo of their romantic proposal to their Instagram followers in November.

Following the happy news, the NFL reposted the picture on X to congratulate the pair.

Allen's teammate Dion Dawkins told reporters that he believes Steinfeld has had a big influence on Allen's performance.

"Josh is having fun, we're having fun watching him," he said, per Fox News.

He added: " When you have a strong female behind you and when you're in the right mental space of going home and everything is peaceful and going to your cellphone and seeing a heart in your phone and it just makes you bubble β€” there's something about it."
