Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen are heading into their first Thanksgiving and Christmas with their daughter, Harper Haize Allen, whom they welcomed in April.
“This is my first holiday with a baby, though, so we’re excited to make the holidays a little extra special this year,” Steinfeld said. She also acknowledged the work behind the celebrations: “The prep and the cooking and all that is, you know… fun until it’s not. It’s a lot of work.”
The Sinners actress has been promoting Disney’s supernatural animated film Hexed, and said she’s felt supported by castmates she met when the press tour began. “I’m getting a lot of love and support, which is very needed during this time, but it’s the most incredible thing. I feel so, so very blessed.”
Steinfeld has also written about wanting to hold on to the small moments with Harper while looking forward to watching her grow. In her Beau Society newsletter, she wrote: “These last few months have been beautiful and exhausting. Sacred and so special. The longest days and the shortest season all at once.”
“I want your baby hair to stay this soft forever, but I long for the day you might ask me to braid it down your back while we’re sitting in the grass,” she wrote.
