Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown has announced that she has changed her name.
This news comes just months after she announced that she had adopted a baby girl.
The actor wrote: "This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption," the Stranger Things star wrote.
"We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy."
Millie Bobby Brown's husband Jake Bongiovi is the son of music legend Jon Bon Jovi.
The pair married in May of 2024.
And now Brown has confessed that she has changed her name to Millie Bonnie Bongiovi.
She dropped the bombshell in an interview with VT alongside Stranger Things co-star Noah Schnapp.
Noah was asked if he knows Millie's full name, which he quickly responded to saying: "Millie Bonnie Brown."
But Millie then told Noah that it's not. He tried again, guessing Millie Bonnie Brown Bongiovi but then Millie told Noah to 'drop the Brown', confirming her name is Millie Bonnie Bongiovi.
It also turns out that Bobby was never her name. In fact she changed it for 'sh*ts and giggles'.
The news of her wedding Jake Bongiovi was announced by his musician father on The One Show.
At the time, Bon Jovi said: "They're great. They're absolutely fantastic. It was a very small family wedding, and the bride looked gorgeous, and Jake is happy as can be. It's true."
