Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi Welcome Their Second Baby

Millie Bobby Brown has been expertly managing her flourishing acting career while maintaining a low-key personal life. She married Jake Bongiovi in a private ceremony in May 2024 after years of dating away from the public eye. The ‘Stranger Things’ star has always emphasized the significance of family, even before she and Bongiovi welcomed their first child.

Their journey into parenthood began publicly in August 2025 when the couple announced the adoption of a baby girl. They shared this heartfelt news on Instagram, expressing their excitement about starting a new chapter in peace and privacy. At that time, they kept most details, including their daughter’s name, under wraps to shield their family from public attention.

Now, just over a year later, the family has expanded once more. Brown, 22, and Bongiovi, 24, have welcomed their second child through adoption, as confirmed by a source to People on Thursday, September 17, marking another significant step in their family journey.

While the couple has not publicly confirmed the arrival of their newest addition, they have maintained their preference for privacy regarding their children. This approach aligns with how they have navigated parenthood from the beginning, choosing not to disclose their first daughter’s name or many details about her.

Fans may have caught an early glimpse of their growing family without realizing it. Earlier this month, Brown shared a video from a family vacation in the Dolomites, Italy, on September 7, showing her carrying her daughter alongside an alpaca. In the same clip, Bongiovi appeared with what seemed to be a second baby in a carrier, although the child’s face was not visible.

Brown has previously expressed her desire for a large family, viewing adoption as a natural path to parenthood. During an appearance on the “SmartLess” podcast, she reflected on the importance of starting a family, noting that her own parents had her at a young age and that she sees no fundamental difference between having a biological child and adopting.

“I feel like my home is full of love for anyone or anything,” Brown shared, highlighting her perspective on building a family through adoption. This sentiment was echoed in their announcement of their first daughter’s arrival, where they expressed their excitement about embarking on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in peace and privacy, concluding with the line, “And then there were 3.”

Brown and Bongiovi, the son of musician Jon Bon Jovi, first sparked dating rumors in 2021 after connecting on Instagram. They made their red carpet debut in March 2022 and got engaged in April 2023 before tying the knot in their private May 2024 ceremony. Their journey to parenthood has unfolded over several years, culminating in their family of three, and now apparently four.

As Brown continues to balance family life with her career, the fifth and final season of ‘Stranger Things’ is set to premiere later this year, concluding the series that made her a household name nearly a decade ago.

With representatives for the couple yet to comment on the reported second adoption, fans may have to wait for Brown and Bongiovi to share more details at their own pace, consistent with how they have approached every major family milestone. For now, this news signifies another meaningful chapter for a couple who values privacy as much as the family they are nurturing.
