Millie Bobby Brown and her husband Jake Bongiovi have announced they've welcomed a baby girl into their lives.
The Stranger Things actress (21) and model (23) shared the happy news on their Instagram yesterday (21 August).
Millie captioned the post: "This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption. We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy."
The pair have decided not to share the name of their baby girl nor any pictures, keeping their announcement quite short and sweet. They signed the message off with: "And then there were three. Love, Millie and Jake Bongiovi."
The pair got married in 2024, having been engaged for over a year beforehand.
In an opulent Italian ceremony, the pair said 'I do' surrounded by their loved ones.
Even though the couple is choosing to stay rather private about their new baby girl, Millie has hinted at wanting a big family.
As a guest on the Smartless podcast with fellow actors Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, and Sean Hayes, Millie said that 'she had always wanted to be a mom'.
"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. And my nan, my grandmother is, she was a huge part of my life.
"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's so important to start a family for me personally."
She went on to say: "And my thing was, I really want a family. I really want a big family. I'm one of four. He's one of four. So, it is definitely in our future, but, for me, I don't see having your own child, you know, as really any different than adopting."
And adopt they did. Congratulations, Millie and Jake!
