Netizens are curious to know if Larry David skipped the Knicks game to attend Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld's wedding. According to The New York Post, the American comedian and writer was spotted at Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen's wedding ceremony on May 31, 2025. It is a known fact that David is a New York Jets fan, and Allen, playing for the Buffalo Bills, automatically makes him a rival.

Since the wedding took place on Saturday, May 30, Larry David had to miss out on attending the Indiana Pacers vs. New York Knicks basketball game, where the Pacers secured a125-108 victory.

Many are wondering how Larry David and the married couple know each other. An X user commented on New York Post Sports on the microblogging platform, saying:

"He’s a good friend of the family and the bride’s father," @veee_ms stated, but it is not clear whether this information is factual or not.

Another X user, who claims it is a "podcast for poorly attempted satirical comedy," shared a few hilarious and most likely untrue reasons for Larry David's presence at the wedding ceremony. They wrote:

"A million questions is not enough to figure out why Larry David is at Josh Allen’s wedding: 1) Are they shooting a new season of Curb and this was staged? 2) Does Larry do a speech at the reception and say Josh is “pretty pretty pretty good at football?" @wittysports716 asked.

A brief glimpse into Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen's relationship

Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen sparked relationship rumors two years ago in 2023. The couple was often seen going on dates or appearing in public together. They made it Instagram official on July 23, 2024, when Allen posted a photo of himself and Steinfeld, along with a carousel of other photos.

After Josh Allen proposed in October 2024, Hailee shared with Who What Wear when she was asked if she had any clue about the proposal. She answered:

"Oh my God, no! You talk to your girlfriends about that, right, where you’re like, 'I just don’t want to know.'"

She added:

"I’m so grateful that he did it the way he did so that I looked good, and we have these photos that we’ll have and cherish for the rest of our lives that I'm not looking at being like, 'What was I wearing?' We were in Malibu, which is my happy place, and it was magical. That’s the word."

Hailee Steinfeld also introduced her fiancé to her fans via her newsletter after posting on Instagram. According to Allen in the Beau Society newsletter, he said:

"It feels unbelievable to be engaged to someone who is so special and loving and caring and gorgeous and fun and happy... I can keep going if you want me to keep going."

Steinfeld and Allen's relationship has always been very low-key, despite the public appearances. During the interview with Who What Wear, Hailee added:

"When you realize that so much is already out there in every other aspect of your life, you really learn to cherish the little that isn't... It just makes things extra special, and it's just for you."

Many were surprised to see Larry David at Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen's wedding. It is unclear what kind of relationship Larry David has with the Steinfelds or the Allens, but a few fans have made their guesses. As mentioned, Steinfeld and Allen don't share too much of their romance with the rest of the world, which is why many were surprised when news of the two getting married broke out.
