In a surprisingly candid revelation, Millie Bobby Brown has opened up about what she calls her "adopted baby" with fiancé Jake Bongiovi - though it's not quite what fans might expect.
The Truth Behind The 'Adopted Baby'
The Stranger Things sensation, 20, clarified in recent interviews that she's actually referring to their beloved dog when she mentions their "adopted" child. "We have an adopted child," Brown revealed, before explaining with a laugh, "We have a dog, a poodle mix called Winnie."
The young actress, who rose to fame playing Eleven in the hit Netflix series, has been refreshingly open about her relationship with Jake, 22, and their future plans together.
Wedding Bells and Future Plans
The couple, who got engaged in April 2023 after nearly three years of dating, are already making concrete plans for their future family. Brown confirmed they intend to have children "100 per cent" when the time is right.
"I'd say in the next few years, when I'm, like, 25, I'd love to have a child," the actress shared, showing remarkable clarity about her personal timeline despite her young age.
Modern Love Story
Brown and Bongiovi's relationship has captured public attention as one of Hollywood's most genuine young love stories. The couple first connected through Instagram in 2021 and quickly became inseparable.
Their engagement made headlines worldwide, with Brown showing off a stunning diamond ring. Jake, the son of rock legend Jon Bon Jovi, proposed during an underwater adventure - a fittingly unique beginning to their lifelong journey together.
The young star has been vocal about how their relationship differs from traditional Hollywood romances, emphasizing their shared values and commitment to building a solid foundation before marriage.
Career and Personal Life Balance
Despite her global fame, Brown has managed to maintain a remarkably grounded perspective on life and relationships. She continues to balance her thriving acting career with her personal life, recently starring in and producing the Netflix film "Damsel."
As she looks toward the future, the actress appears determined to build the family life she's always dreamed of, starting with her furry "adopted baby" Winnie and eventually expanding their family when the time is right.
