Millie Bobby Brown Gives A Peek Of Life As A New Mom

Millie Bobby Brown is trying out a new persona, and it isn't for the big screen. The Stranger Things actress recently offered fans a sweet glimpse into her life as a first-time mom, following her and husband Jake Bongiovi's adoption of their baby girl earlier this year. The actress, 21, tied the knot with Jake, 23, in May 2024 after three years of dating and has been giving fans an insight into her new life as a wife and mother.

In a new Instagram post, Millie gave fans a rare glimpse into their family's experience. A photo carousel caught the couple toggling romance and parenthood, with Jake planting a sweet kiss on Millie's cheek as they sat down to a cozy dinner date. But in the midst of those life-affirming moments, the young couple is also learning the realities of parent life. One photo featured Millie at an airport, balancing a blue backpack and a gray duffel bag, evidence that her hands are as full off-screen as they are on set.

Another snap showed Jake walking across a tarmac, beaming as he proudly carried their newborn in a baby carrier, the proud moment encapsulating their growing family. It is a particularly personal chapter for Millie, who became famous as a young child, the source said. As the actor best known for playing Eleven, a character with resilience and one who has grown into herself as a mother, she says this role has helped her embody those traits. Fans have thanked the star for her honesty as her frank updates are a far cry from the world of glamour that mums are often exposed to.

And, as Millie and Jake negotiate sleepless nights, changes of scene, and diaper duties, they're providing an object lesson in the fact that love is still all you need. Their transition into ­parenthood strikes a chord not only with young families all over the world but deepens the story of Millie's move beyond Hollywood. The award-winning actress is proving that motherhood is yet another exciting adventure she's taking on with grace, honesty, and heart as her career soars and family grows. For fans who have "grown up" with her on screen, this next chapter is as glitzy as it is heartwarming and a testament to the fact that, even in the hoopla of fame, family is everything.
