Millie Bobby Brown is a Primetime Emmy Award, two Saturn Award winning British actress and producer. On May 18th, 2024, she married the American actor and model Jacob Bongiovi. It was a private ceremony that weekend after almost 3 years of dating. Over a year after of being married, Bobby Brown and Bongiovi decided to take in a new addition to their new family.
On the 21st of August, Bobby Brown and her husband Bongiovi announced they have welcomed their first child together. The pair adopted a daughter, though further details have been kept private. “I’m still really young,” Bobby Brown said.
“My mum actually had her first child when she was 21, and my dad was 19. I really want a family. I want a big family, I’m one of four, and he’s one of four. So it is definitely in our future.” Bobby Brown then added, “For me, I don’t see having your own child as really any different as adopting. My home is full of love for anyone or anything. And so, that is what we kind of stand by. The energy in our house is the door is always open, and we want everyone to feel comfortable.”
Public opinion on Bobby Brown and Bongiovi adopting a baby is divided in many ways, with many celebrating the decision and expressing happiness and excitement for their new path, others criticize her for being too young to adopt and question the trauma of adoption for the child. Many also express support, pointing to her expressed desire for a large family, her financial stability, and the demeaning trend of online negativity directed at mothers and children.
