Jake Bongiovi Is All Grown Up And He’s
Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi Are Engaged
Millie Bobby Brown, best known for her role as Eleven on Stranger Things, surprised fans by announcing her engagement to Jake Bongiovi, son of rock legend Jon Bon Jovi. The couple has been together since 2021.
Fans expressed shock over the news, given Brown is only 19 and Bongiovi 20. However, the couple appears deeply in love. Jake shared photos on Instagram with the caption, “Forever,” while Brown posted a picture quoting Taylor Swift: “I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, I want ’em all.”
How They Met
The couple first connected online. “We met on Instagram, and we were friends for a bit, and then, what can I say?” Brown told Wired. Their first red carpet appearance together was at the 2022 BAFTA Awards.
Jake Bongiovi’s Background
Jake may not be as famous as Millie or his father, but he comes from a high-profile family. Jon Bon Jovi and his wife Dorothea Hurley have four children, with Jake being one of the middle siblings.
As a teen, Jake made headlines for leading a school walkout protesting gun violence. “It’s enough. It’s happened too many times that we watch it,” he said at age 15.
A Future in Acting
Though he resembles his rock star dad, Jake is pursuing acting, not music. He has roles in two upcoming films: Sweethearts and Rockbottom. In the latter, he plays Justin, a shy singer trying to revive a band’s fame.
