One year after their secret wedding, the couple joyously embraces parenthood, celebrating their journey in quiet with an adopted baby girl.
August 21, 2025 — Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown, 21, and her husband Jake Bongiovi, 23, have welcomed their first child together—a baby girl—through adoption. The couple shared the heartfelt announcement on Instagram, marking the beginning of a new and private chapter in their lives.
A Quiet, Joyous Arrival
In a simple yet touching post, Brown revealed, “This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption. We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy.” She signed off with, “And then there were 3, love, Millie and Jake Bongiovi.”
A Dream Long in the Making
Entertainment sources close to the star confirm that motherhood has always been Brown’s vision for herself, influenced by the women in her family—particularly her mother and grandmother. She’s previously spoken candidly on podcasts about her desire for a big family, noting that adoption holds just as much meaning as raising a biological child.
From Romance to Family
Brown and Bongiovi’s relationship began in 2021, evolving from friendship into romance. The couple surprised fans with a private wedding in May 2024, keeping wedding details largely under wraps and celebrating later with family and friends in Italy.
Looking Ahead with Love—and Maybe a Head Shave
In previous interviews, Brown shared that she plans to keep shaving her head—a ritual she found liberating—around major life milestones like motherhood. Her openness about embracing unconventional beauty milestones underscores how deeply meaningful this new chapter is for her.
