Pregnant ‘Sinner’ Star Hailee Steinfeld Misses Oscars As She And Josh Allen Hunker Are At Home Ahead Of The Birth Of Their First Child

“Sinners” was one of the biggest winners at the 2026 Oscars—but one cast member was notably absent from the prestigious awards ceremony: Hailee Steinfeldwho stayed at home with her husband, Josh Allen.

Steinfeld, 29, who is pregnant with her first child, opted to skip the red carpet event, where her hit film was honored with 16 awards, with her costar, Michael B. Jordanrevealing during the acceptance speech of the leading actor why he chose not to attend.

Pausing her speech to shout out “Hailee at home,” Jordan noted that the actress is “getting ready to have a baby right now.”

Buffalo bills star Allen, 29, and Steinfeld have yet to meet their due date; However, the actress recently opened up about how she was shedding her pregnancy in her magazine post, Beau Society.

The mom-to-be is revealed to have spent the first few months hanging out at her husband’s home in Buffalo, NY, a custom-built mansion he built on a property he bought in 2021 for the low price of $500,000.

Located in the Orchard Park community, about eight minutes from the Bills’ home field at Highmark Stadium, this home has an amazing pool, a pool house, and a sports court that can be used for both basketball and tennis.

However, Steinfeld and Allen have since returned to California—where they both have homes—and where the actress is thought to be welcoming her first child.

The actor bought his Golden State property, located in Encino, off the rocker John Fogerty with R8 million in 2021.

The actor’s place is 9,000 square meters and has six bedrooms and eight bathrooms. Like Allen’s place in Buffalo, it has a large pool, which can be accessed through a motorized window wall between the main living area and the backyard.

Meanwhile, Allen holds the keys to a beautiful beach house in Dana Point, CA, which he previously tried to sell, listing it for $8.5 million in July 2025, just weeks after he and Steinfeld tied the knot.

However, after Steinfeld revealed they were expecting their first child together, Allen quickly took the home off the market.

Allen took the 2,808-square-foot property for $7.2 million in 2023 through a trust managed by his financial advisor,Troy Nunes. Allen is believed to have spent a lot of time in the offseason, getting some warm weather after Buffalo’s snowy winter.

The four-bedroom, three-bathroom home is located within a “prestigious” gated community that includes its own private beach club—and is close to dozens of five-star resorts, including the Ritz-Carlton.

According to the listing, the property features “classic mid-century California architecture” and is “situated behind an exclusive 24-hour Monarch Bay location.

“Situated on one of the neighborhood’s largest private estates, it offers incredible potential in a highly sought-after coastal community.”

Surrounded by lush greenery, the modern pad welcomes guests with a black and white facade and gated entrance.

Steinfeld and Allen announced their pregnancy news to the world in December, when they shared a video of the NFL star kissing his wife’s bump in front of a snowy backdrop—which was later revealed to be the Bills quarterback’s home in Buffalo.

The actress is expected to give birth in the coming weeks, which will leave them time to adjust to life as a family of three before Allen returns to Buffalo for preseason training in the summer.

Although Steinfeld wasn’t there to witness the Oscars in person, his film, “Sinners,” walked away with four awards, including Jordan’s win for Best Actor.

However, the film missed out on what was arguably the biggest ticket win of the evening—the best picture award, which was instead won by the star-studded “One Battle After Another.” Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Pennagain Teyana Taylor.
