Millie Bobby Brown Makes Rare Comments About Her Baby Girl
Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi are no strangers to the red carpet.
However, the couple did take a break from it after they welcomed their baby girl this past summer.
But on Nov. 6, the pair—who tied the knot in May 2024—stepped out in Los Angeles for the premiere of Stranger Things season five, which hits Netflix Nov. 26. Jake caught eyes in a velvet red suit, while Millie stunned in a maroon minidress with a corset waist and lace detailing. The actress and the son of Jon Bon Jovi posed on the carpet together for the first time since becoming parents and also snapped pictures alongside the rest of the cast, including Winona Ryder, David Harbour and Noah Schnapp.
Millie and Jake’s return to the spotlight comes three months after they announced they had adopted a baby girl.
“This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption,” they said in a joint statement on Millie’s Instagram page Aug. 21. “We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy.”
While the couple still hasn’t shared her name, they did share a peek of their little one last month. In a photo posted to Instagram Oct. 9, Millie and Jake cuddled up together on the “It’s a Small World” ride at Disneyland, where their baby girl’s Minnie Mouse onesie can be seen peeking out between them.
Just a few months before becoming a mom, Millie became vocal about her excitement to start a family.

“I’m still really young but my mom actually had her first child at 21 and my dad was 19,” she said on the Smartless podcast in March. “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.”
“I really want a big family,” she continued. “I’m one of four, he’s one of four, so it is definitely in our future.”
Plus, she even hinted at the time that adoption might be in the cards, as she added, “I don’t see having your own child as really any different as in adopting.”
Ultimately, no matter how it comes to be, Millie shared that in her mind, family is everything.
“For me, my home is full of love for anyone and anything,” the 21-year-old shared. “So that is kind of where we stand… We’re wanting to start a family and it doesn’t matter in what way or when, but it will happen for sure.”
