Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown has welcomed a second child with husband Jake Bongiovi, according to a new report.

The British actor, who played Eleven/Jane Hopper in the Netflix hit as well as starring in the Godzilla and Enola Holmes franchises, married Bongiovi, the son of singer Jon Bon Jovi, in 2024. The following year, the couple adopted a daughter. Now, People reports that the couple have adopted a second child.

An unnamed source told the outlet of the adoption, although Brown herself hinted at the new arrival in a post on Instagram. She shared a video of the couple walking together with their backs to the camera, with Brown holding their daughter, while Bongiovi appeared to be wearing a baby carrier, with the front obscured. She captioned the post “different in the Dolomites”, and tagged San Sonnea Family, which describes itself as “a secluded sanctuary for families only”.

Brown’s time on Stranger Things came to an end in January, with the finale of the long-running series overshadowed by negative fan reactions and rumours of an on-set feud with co-star David Harbour. Harbour played down the rumours in June, saying that they “still adore each other” following a brief misunderstanding he described as a “rupture and repair thing”.

Brown appeared to acknowledge their good relationship in a recent podcast appearance, hinting that they would work together in the future and that they have a “father-daughter” dynamic after years of playing those roles on screen.

One of the big talking points coming away from the end of Stranger Things was the fate of Eleven, which was left vague as she appeared to heroically sacrifice herself to save her friends. Recently, she revealed that she is one of only three people who know the true fate of the character.
