Millie Bobby Brown, the former child star who broke through with the hit show Stranger Things, is engaged. The actress shared a loved up picture of herself with boyfriend Jake Bongiovi on social media on Tuesday, where she flaunted her new engagement ring.
Taking to Instagram, Millie shared a monochrome picture of herself and Jake, where he can be seen hugging her from behind. As a smiling Millie holds Jake’s arms, her diamond engagement ring is visible. Captioning the picture, Millie wrote, “I've loved you three summers now, honey, I want 'em all.” The pair have been in a relationship since 2021.
Fans acted in shock at learning of the 19-year-old’s engagement. “When teenagers are getting engaged and I'm just running a meme page,” wrote one. Several comments criticised the couple for ‘rushing into things’ but Millie’s fans were quick to defend the actress. One wrote, “For everyone upset about her being engaged, it’s not her saying she’s getting married RIGHT AWAY, it just signifies that it’ll happen and they made their love for each other official. Just be happy for her at the end of the day it’s her life.”
