Millie Bobby Brown definitely got everyone’s attention when she talked about how she can’t wait to become a mom and start a family with husband Jake Bongiovi.
During the 21-year-old actress&#8217; appearance on the “Smartless” podcast, the “Stranger Things” star said that starting a family isn’t just important to her but to Jake as well, noting they both come from big families, <a href="https://people.com/millie-bobby-brown-says-its-so-important-to-her-to-start-a-family-with-husband-jake-bongiovi-11694191?taid=67cf4e29ccadfc0001d26c09&amp;utm_campaign=peoplemagazine&amp;utm_content=new&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter.com">People magazine</a> reported. Brown and Bongiovi tied the knot in May 2024.
&#8220;My mom actually had her first child at 21, and my dad was 19,” Brown said. “And you know, it&#8217;s been my thing since before I met Jake. Since I was a baby, I told my mom, like, baby dolls. I wanted to be a mom just like the way my mom was to me.&#8221;
&#8220;And my nan, like my grandmother, she was a huge part of my life,” she added. “And so, yeah, I mean, Jake knows how important it is to me and, of course, I want to focus on really establishing myself as an actor and as a producer, but I also find it&#8217;s so important to start a family for me personally. It&#8217;s a huge thing. Jake was like, we cannot do that until we get married. So that was his thing.&#8221;
&#8220;And my thing was, I really want a family. I really want a big family,&#8221; Brown continued. &#8220;I&#8217;m one of four. He&#8217;s one of four. So, it is definitely in our future. But, for me, I don&#8217;t see having your own child, you know, as really any different as in adopting. My home is full of love for anyone and anything, and so that is what we kind of stand by, Jake and I, our energy in the house is the door is always open, and we want everyone to feel really comfortable.”
The couple started dating in 2021 and went Instagram official with their relationship in November of that year. In 2023, 19-year-old Brown announced she and 20-year-old Jake were engaged, and fans had mixed reactions.
Her Instagram post included a black and white photo showing her embracing her fiancé while she showed off her diamond engagement ring.
There were many social media users who sent congratulatory messages to Brown and defended the actress from critics.
“Shut up to all the people who [are] saying she’s too young she’s literally living the life she wants bro don’t forget that this isn’t [your] life and [you] don’t make decisions for her,” one person wrote.
“She’s technically an adult and can make her own choices,” another added. “I got engaged at 19 and was married at 19 and now almost 10 years later we’re still together, would I be okay with my kids getting married at 19? Eh probably not but still congrats to them!”
However, there were a whole host of comments from people who felt the two were way too young to be engaged, <a href="https://pagesix.com/2023/04/11/fans-react-to-millie-bobby-browns-engagement-to-jake-bongiovi/">Page Six</a> noted.
“Omgg too young,” one account posted.
“NO F***ING WAY,” another user added.
