Millie Bobby Brown’s full relationship timeline with husband Jake Bongiovi
Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi have been a power couple since 2021.
While the pair started out keeping their relationship low-key, they have since flaunted their love to the public and have shared several sweet moments on social media and during public appearances.
Here’s a look at their relationship milestones leading up to Bongiovi’s April 2023 proposal.
Selfies together
The duo first sparked romance rumors back in June 2021 when the son of Jon Bon Jovi posted a photo with the “Stranger Things” actress on his Instagram. In the pic, they were seen in the backseat of a car together as he pursed his lips for the camera. They further fanned the flames when he captioned the pic, “bff <3.”
The next day, Brown posted a photo with Bongiovi to her own Instagram, sharing that they had spent the weekend together.
This opened up the floodgates, as they would continue to post content with each other to their respective social media pages; however, they did not confirm the status of their relationship at the time.
Eye-G official
They finally confirmed that they were romantically involved and more than just friends when they went Instagram-official in November 2021.
Brown posted a PDA-filled photo with Bongiovi to her Instagram.
In the snap, he was seen planting a big smooch on her cheek as they enjoyed a romantic ride on the London Eye.
Holiday in love
The pair seemed to be getting serious as they spent the holiday season together.
Bongiovi shared a photo of himself and Brown posing for a sweet photo in front of the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center during a trip to the Big Apple in December 2021.
“Happy holidays!” he captioned the photo, where they both wore masks to protect against coronavirus.
They also appeared to spend Christmas Day together. Brown shared a photo with Bongiovi in front of a Christmas tree on Christmas Day, where they matched in cozy pajamas. She captioned the photo, “happy holidays ❤.”
Birthday Barbies
Bongiovi was right by his girlfriend’s side when she celebrated her 18th birthday in February 2022.
The pair dressed up as Barbie and Ken for the celebrations and both were seen with bleached-blond hair.
“hey ken! 🎂,” Brown captioned a photo of herself and Bongiovi in their costumes on her Instagram at the time.
Red hot carpet
The pair made their official red carpet debut as a couple by attending the BAFTAs in London together in March 2022.
Brown and Bongiovi posed for photos together for shutterbugs to snap their loved-up moment. They both coordinated their looks in black outfits.
While Bongiovi went for a classic black tuxedo, Brown looked edgy in a velvet and lace gown that left little to the imagination.
Couple ‘Things’
The two lovebirds continued to make public appearances together.
Bongiovi walked the red carpet with Brown at the Season 4 premiere of “Stranger Things” in New York City in May 2022.
Again, they matched their ensembles, both wearing black and white for the exciting event.
Smitten in Spain
Brown and Bongiovi enjoyed a romantic vacation together in Spain in May 2022.
They shared a sneak peek of their getaway with fans on social media, where they were snuggled up to each other.
The pair hit Barcelona and visited the church La Sagrada Familia.
Sweeties forever
Brown posted about wanting to spend her life with Bongiovi with a post on Instagram in August.
The Netflix actress shared a photo of herself and her boyfriend enjoying a big ice cream Sunday.
“Always b my baby <3,” Brown captioned the photo.
Bride-to-be
Brown and Bongiovi revealed their engagement news via Instagram in April 2023.
“I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, I want ’em all 🤍,” the Emmy nominee captioned a black-and-white beach snap showing off her sparkler.
In a post of his own, the groom-to-be called Brown his “forever.”
Wedding bells
In May 2024, Brown and Bongiovi “quietly said their vows” during a secret wedding ceremony, multiple outlets reported.
“They are planning a bigger ceremony in the US later this year but now they have legally married and done all the paperwork,” an insider shared with the US Sun at the time.
“It was a very low-key, romantic affair with their closest family with them as they said their vows.”
Four months later, the actress and the nepo baby then held a second ceremony in Italy, exchanging vows in a lavish wedding where Brown wore four dresses.
After the nuptials, Brown took to Instagram to share photos from their special day.
“forever and always, your wife,” she captioned the carousel.
Baby news
On August 21, 2025, the couple announced in a joint Instagram post that they adopted a baby girl over the summer.
“We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy,” they wrote in a joint statement.
“And then there were 3,” the pair added.
The couple did not disclose the name of the infant.
