In August 2023, Allen joked that “friendship bracelets" weren’t the best way to "attract a superstar talent" after Kelce recalled his attempt to give now-girlfriend Taylor Swift his number on a bracelet on his New Heights podcast.
Allen said at the time that he was "surprised" that Swift, 34, wasn't interested in Kelce's offer, explaining, "It's hard to say no to Travis Kelce."
After Kelce and Swift got together, Allen weighed in on the pop star’s attendance at NFL games and her spotlight on the official NFL broadcasts in October 2023. At the time, he said that Swift's attendance at games is "obviously good for the brand."
"I think it's attracted a lot of viewers to what we're doing, and I guess in this business, you're either growing or you're dying," Allen added.

Allen proposed to Steinfeld on Nov. 22. A source close to the couple told PEOPLE that their families are excited about the engagement news. "They’ve been head over heels from the start," the insider said.
Steinfeld and Allen were first linked in May 2023, and the couple then made their first public appearance together at an NHL game at the KeyBank Center in Buffalo in October 2023.
They later took their relationship Instagram official in July 2024 with a photo of themselves embracing in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
