Millie Bobby Brown was born in 2004, which is why today’s news is a shock to the system: She and her husband, Jake Bongiovi, just adopted a baby. Yup. The Stranger Things star is officially a mamacita at the age of 21.
This has actually been a dream of Millie’s for a long time. Just a few months ago, the actress opened up about her desire to become a mother during an appearance on the Smartless podcast. “My mom actually had her first child at 21, and my dad was 19,” she said. “And you know, it’s been my thing since before I met Jake. Since I was a baby, I told my mom, like, baby dolls. I wanted to be a mom just like the way my mom was to me.” At the time, she emphasized, “It’s so important to start a family for me personally.”
Mission accomplished! Happy for this queen, even though she’s younger than me and light-years ahead of me. Here’s everything to know about Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi’s baby.

When Did Millie Bobby Brown And Jake Bongiovi Get Married?
Millie and Jake were first linked in 2021, and they exchanged vows in a private ceremony in May 2024. Last October, the lovebirds posted photos on Instagram from their Italy celebration with family and friends. “Forever and always, your wife,” the actress captioned the carousel, which included beautiful photos from the ceremony and pics of her two bridal gowns. Jake shared his own photos with the caption, “Forever and always, your husband.”
During her March appearance on Call Her Daddy, Millie reflected on her decision to get married at a young age. “We had dogs together, and we were taking care of our animals, and we started living this day-to-day life,” she said. “And I thought, ‘Oh, I really don’t think I could ever see you as anything else. I don’t want to be with anyone else ever again. I don’t want to date, I don’t want to meet anyone, I want you.’ ”
Welp, congrats to the new parents <3.
