Josh Allen, the Buffalo Bills quarterback, announced his engagement to actress Hailee Steinfeld on November 29, 2024. This sparked talk about his ex-girlfriend, Brittany Williams. A decade-long relationship tied her to Allen, but their split in 2023 left room for both to move on—or so it seemed.
Hours after Josh shared the engagement news, Brittany allegedly dropped a bombshell comment on social media. She called her new boyfriend an NFL team owner and shaded athletes like Allen, referring to them as “brain-dead CTE athletes.””
The timing? Impeccable. The tone? Scorching.
Did Brittany Really Post It? Hacked Account or Not?
In her now-deleted Instagram post, Brittany seemingly clapped back at a user who joked about her finding another athlete. She retorted, “Luckily, my boyfriend owns a team and doesn’t play for one.” This snide comment quickly went viral, with TikToker @sammysamslife amplifying it to an even wider audience.
But Brittany later claimed her account was hacked, posting, “My accounts have been hacked several times tonight. Trying to get it resolved.”
This twist added confusion, especially when she contradicted her earlier claims. Responding to a follower joking about her supposed “team owner” boyfriend, Brittany wrote, “Honestly, this is funny af. If you did your research, you’d know I don’t have a boyfriend, so none of this makes sense.”
The back-and-forth left fans speculating: Is Brittany moving on, or was this comment an emotional reaction to her ex’s engagement?

A Decade-Long History with Josh Allen
Brittany and Josh’s story began in Fresno, California, where they grew up together. Their friendship blossomed into romance, spanning nearly ten years. While Brittany supported Josh’s NFL career, cracks in their relationship surfaced over time, leading to their 2023 split.
Sources reported that Brittany has moved on, with rumors tying her to a mysterious NFL team owner. However, her recent claims of being single raise doubts about the validity of these rumors.
Josh Allen’s engagement to Hailee Steinfeld has been widely celebrated. Taylor Swift even congratulated the couple.
Who Is Brittany Williams Today?
Though her relationship with Josh is now history, Brittany has built an identity of her own. As a fashion influencer and Pilates instructor, she inspires fans with her chic style and dedication to fitness. Her online Pilates program, Pilates by Britt, and her social media posts show her post-breakup life. It’s thriving.
Social media erupted following Brittany’s alleged comment. Many viewed it as a direct jab at Josh on one of the happiest days of his life, while others defended her, suggesting the timing was purely coincidental.
One fan wrote, “She’s clearly not over him—what else could explain this level of pettiness?” Another chimed in, “If her account was hacked, why does it always happen during these moments?”
