Millie Bobby Brown Welcomes Second Child With Husband Jake Bongiovi
Millie Bobby Brown is now a mom of two, as she and her husband, Jake Bongiovi, have welcomed their second baby together through adoption.
Earlier this month, on September 7, Brown gave a hint that her family may have grown when she shared a video from a family trip to the Dolomites in Italy. In the video, Brown was seen holding her daughter while Bongiovi walked alongside her with a baby carrier strapped to his chest. Though the post did not directly announce that they had welcomed another child.

The couple later confirmed the news in a joint Instagram post on September 17, where they shared a close-up photo of their newborn’s hand with the simple caption, “Hi little guy!” The post confirmed that their second child is a boy.
The arrival of their second child comes nearly a year after Brown announced that she and Bongiovi had welcomed their first daughter through adoption in August 2025. At the time, Brown shared the news on Instagram, writing, “This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption. We are beyond ecstatic to embark on this beautiful next chapter of our family, filled with both peace and privacy.” She ended the post with, “And then there were three.”

Brown has also been open about how she has always wanted to adopt. During a June appearance on Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce, she explained that adoption had been part of her childhood dreams. “It was always part of my childhood dreams,” she said. Brown recalled that when she was around five or six years old, her parents would tell her that her baby dolls were all adopted. “I never had any of them myself. And I never pretended I was pregnant,” she said.
She later clarified that wanting to adopt did not mean she had ruled out having biological children. “It’s not because I don’t want that. Hopefully one day that’s in my future,” Brown said. She also shared how she views adoption, adding, “Adoption is love. Adoption is forever.”

Brown and Bongiovi began dating in 2021 and got engaged in April 2023. They got married in May 2024 in a private ceremony surrounded by close family, before later holding a larger wedding celebration in Italy.
They have not revealed much concerning their children’s lives, choosing to keep most of those details away from the public. Brown previously spoke to British Vogue about wanting her daughter to have the choice of whether she wants a public profile when she is older.
