Story summary

Millie Bobby Brown, 22, and her husband Jake Bongiovi, 24, have welcomed their second child through adoption. They announced this news on Instagram with a heartwarming photo of their hands holding the infant's hand, captioned "hi little guy!" The couple adopted their first child, a daughter named Ruth, in August 2025 and have been protecting her privacy since then.

Brown and Bongiovi became engaged in April 2023 and were married in May 2024. They chose to keep both children largely out of the public eye to ensure their privacy and well-being. In a recent interview with British Vogue, Brown emphasized her commitment to giving her daughter the space to share her story when she is ready.

The couple hinted at the arrival of their second child earlier this month during a family vacation in Italy's Dolomites mountain range, where they were seen walking with Bongiovi carrying a baby carrier and Brown holding their older daughter. They are known for being protective of their children's privacy while also occasionally sharing updates through subtle hints on social media.
