Published: Jan 13 2026

Cheri Steinfeld knows that her family is a hotbed of emerging talents. Hailee Steinfeld's mother celebrated her daughter and her husband, Josh Allen, after they both achieved incredible milestones in their respective careers on the same day. Indeed, Hailee, who is currently expecting her first child with the football quarterback, had a memorable night on January 11th when she stepped out to present at the 2026 Golden Globes, where Sinners took home the trophies for Best Cinematic and Box Office Achievement and Best Score.

Earlier that Sunday, Josh led his Buffalo Bills teammates to victory in their first-round NFL playoff game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Cheri certainly believes both feats deserve standing ovations. Indeed, she reshared a post on social media the following day that highlighted just how lucky the couple's future child is to have such talented parents. "Oh this baby is already iconic," read the post shared to her Instagram Stories on January 12th. "Your mom, Hailee Steinfeld, attending the Golden Globes as a presenter after starring in the smash-hit Sinners. Your dad, Josh Allen, just silenced an entire stadium by winning his first NFL road playoff game for the Bills."

Cheri had even more special shout-outs for her loved ones. In a separate post, she reshared another side-by-side photo of Josh and Hailee, who tied the knot in May after one year of dating, with a caption that read, "MOTHER is MOTHERING. FATHER did, in fact, FATHER."

But Cheri isn't the only one who's looking back on the epic night with love. Following Hailee's appearance at the Golden Globes, Josh, 29, reshared a snap of his wife in her dazzling Prada gown to his own Instagram Stories. And alongside the pic of Hailee—who gently cradled her growing baby bump for the photo-op—the athlete commented with drooling and heart-eye emojis.

Of course, Hailee, also 29, likely could have predicted that Sinners would lead her to the 83rd annual awards show, which was hosted by Nikki Glaser for the second year in a row. After all, the Oscar nominee previously said she knew the vampire horror flick would be special as soon as she read director Ryan Coogler's script.

"It's a feeling I've only got a handful of times, and that's a privilege and a blessing," Hailee told Who What Wear in February 2025. "But it's a feeling that, once you have felt it, you crave nothing but that feeling."
