Millie Bobby Brown & Jake Bongiovi Welcome Baby Girl Through Adoption

Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi are parents! The couple just announced that they welcomed their first child and are settling into life as a family of three — a journey they hope to take on in “peace and privacy.”

The new parents shared the news with a joint statement on Instagram posted on Thursday, August 21. “This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption,” the couple wrote in their statement. “We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy,” the statement continued.

Honouring the sentiment of the statement, the couple did not announce the name of their child, nor her date of birth. “And then there were 3,” the couple wrote, signing their names at the bottom of the picture.

After dating for a few years, the couple got engaged in 2023; Jake Bongiovi proposed to Millie Bobby Brown while the two were out for an underwater diving exploration, and after a little bit of a mishap with the ring, the Enola Holmes actress happily accepted.

The two tied the knot in May 2024, with Brown wearing a custom white lace Galia Lahav gown and Bongiovi in Tom Ford. Brown’s Stranger Things costar Matthew Modine served as officiant for the ceremony at the Villa Cetinale in Italy.

Earlier this spring, Brown spoke about her hopes of building a family with her husband while as a guest on the Smartless podcast.

“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. Since I was a baby, I told my mom… I wanted to be a mom just like the way my mom was to me,” said Brown. “Jake knows how important it is to me and, of course, I want to focus on really establishing myself as an actor and as a producer, but I also find it’s so important to start a family for me personally… It’s a huge thing. Jake was like, we cannot do that until we get married.”

“I really want a family. I really want a big family,” Brown continued, even sharing her thoughts on adoption. “I’m one of four. He’s one of four. So, it is definitely in our future, but, for me, I don’t see having your own child, you know, as really any different as in adopting.”

Congratulations to the new parents! As they stated in their Instagram post, they’ve asked for privacy, so while we’re thrilled for the couple, it’s best not to speculate and to wait until they share more information about their new baby.
