Millie Bobby Brown, the acclaimed star of Netflix’s Stranger Things, has announced her entry into motherhood after adopting a baby girl with her husband, Jake Bongiovi. The couple revealed this joyful news through an Instagram post, sharing their excitement with the world while expressing their desire for privacy during this personal chapter of their lives.
In the heartfelt announcement, Brown and Bongiovi stated, “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. And then there were 3. Love, Millie and Jake Bongiovi.” The couple did not disclose additional details, leaving fans speculating about their child’s name. Some commenters noted that a willow tree featured in the background of their announcement might serve as a symbolic reference to their daughter’s potential name.
Although Brown disabled comments on her announcement post, numerous fans offered their support and best wishes on her subsequent posts. Many echoed sentiments of encouragement, recognizing the beauty of adoption and the deep love a parent can impart, regardless of the child’s origin. A notable comment read, “That sweet baby will know complete love because she will know you chose her out of anyone else you could have chosen.

The 21-year-old actress has long expressed her desire to become a mother at a young age, following in her own family’s footsteps. In a previous interview, Brown shared her aspirations, noting, “My mom actually had her first child at 21, and my dad was 19. And you know, it’s been my thing since before I met Jake.” She emphasized the significance of motherhood to her, saying, “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.”
Brown and Bongiovi—who is the son of renowned musician Jon Bon Jovi—first connected in 2021 through social media. Their relationship blossomed rapidly; by early 2024, they had announced their engagement, culminating in their marriage later that same year. Their journey into parenthood marks a significant milestone for the couple, who appear committed to nurturing their growing family while balancing their respective careers in the entertainment industry.
As Brown embraces motherhood, her journey serves as an inspiration to many, highlighting the fulfilling aspect of adoption and the love that binds families together, irrespective of conventional origins.
