Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi welcome second child through adoption

Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi have welcomed their second child, a son, through adoption. The couple shared the first glimpse of their newborn in a joint Instagram post on Thursday, posting a photo of the baby's hand with the caption, "Hi little guy!"

The news of the adoption was confirmed earlier on Thursday. Representatives for the couple have not yet commented publicly on the arrival.

Brown, 22, had recently offered fans a look at their growing family. In an Instagram video shared on September 7, the Stranger Things actor was seen carrying their daughter while Bongiovi walked beside her with a baby carrier strapped to his chest. The couple was visiting the Dolomites mountain range in Italy, where the newest addition to the family was kept out of view.

Nearly a year ago, Brown and Bongiovi announced that they had welcomed their first daughter through adoption. At the time, the actress shared the news on Instagram, writing that they had welcomed their "sweet baby girl" that summer and were excited to begin a new chapter of parenthood in "peace and privacy."

The couple began dating in 2021 and got engaged in 2023. They married in a private ceremony in May 2024. Bongiovi is the son of musician Jon Bon Jovi.

Brown became a global star at the age of 12 after playing Eleven in Netflix's Stranger Things. She has appeared in all seasons of the series, which is set to conclude with its fifth and final season.
