Millie Bobby Brown said that Jake Bongiovi knows how important family is to her
Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi got married in May last year in a private ceremony attended by close friends and family. Now, nearly a year after their wedding, Millie has opened up about her family plans. The actress, who is most well–known for her role in Netflix’s Stranger Things, said that she has always wanted to be a mom. While building a successful career was a priority, becoming a mother had always been equally important to her. Jake wanted the same thing, but he had a catch.
During her recent appearance on the SmartLess podcast, Millie Bobby Brown discussed motherhood. The actress said, “My mom actually had her first child at 21 and my dad was 19,” referring to her own mother, Kelly Brown. This has been my thing since before I met Jake. I wanted to be a mom just like the way my mom was to me.”
Millie made the revelation that Jake was in agreement with her. “Jake knows how important it is to me,” she said. 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.”
Until we get married, we can’t do that.“ Thus, that was his passion. Additionally, my passion was having a family. I truly desire a large family. There are four of us. He is one of four. Therefore, it is without a doubt in our future,” the star added.
Millie acknowledged that the possibility of adoption existed. She said, “I don’t see having your own child as really any different from adopting. I feel like anything’s out because my home is full of love for anyone and anything.” The actress also added that she and Jake are “always going to want to start a family. It doesn’t matter how or when, but it will happen.”
Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi got engaged in April 2023 and married in 2024.
