Just one letter away from the same last name, many fans have asked if Hailee Steinfeld is related to American comedian Jerry Seinfeld.
Pictured with his wife Jessica Seinfeld at the WSJ Mag 2019 Innovator Awards at The Museum of Modern Art on November 6, 2019 in New York City, Jerry Seinfeld is not related to actress Hailee Steinfeld
A few years ago, Hailee Steinfeld’s mom, Cheri Steinfeld, got mistaken for Jerry Seinfeld when making a restaurant reservation.
“Years ago. My mom’s name is Cheri. She called once to make a reservation at a restaurant for the family and left it under Cheri Steinfeld, she told New York Post.
“We showed up and there was no Jerry Seinfeld in the party, which is what I think they heard over the phone, so there was quite a letdown. Luckily, I don’t get that too often.”
Despite their similar names, Hailee Steinfeld is not related to Jerry Seinfeld.
