Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi Welcome Their Second Baby

United States — September 2026

Actress Millie Bobby Brown and her husband, Jake Bongiovi, have welcomed their second child, a baby boy, through adoption.

The couple shared the first glimpse of their newborn on Instagram on September 17, 2026. The photograph showed the baby’s tiny hand holding one of Bongiovi’s fingers, while Brown’s hand rested on top. Brown captioned the image, “Hi little guy!”

A New Addition to the Family

The couple already have a daughter, whom they welcomed through adoption in the summer of 2025. At the time, Brown and Bongiovi announced that they were beginning a new chapter of parenthood and asked for privacy for their family.

The arrival of their second child makes the couple a family of four. Details including the baby’s name and exact birth date have not been publicly released.

A Glimpse of the Baby Before the Announcement

Before introducing their son publicly, Brown gave fans a brief glimpse of the growing family in an Instagram post on September 7.

In the video, Brown could be seen holding their daughter while Bongiovi walked beside her with a baby carrier. The baby’s face and identity were kept out of view as the family spent time together in Italy.

On September 21, Brown and Bongiovi also shared a rare family photograph taken at Villa Cetinale in Italy, the location of their wedding. The image showed the couple with their two children, although the children’s faces were not visible.

Why the Couple Keeps Their Children Private

Brown has previously spoken about her decision to protect her children’s privacy. She has said that she does not want to place her children in the public spotlight without their consent and wants them to have the opportunity to decide for themselves what they share when they are older.

Brown has also spoken openly about her interest in adoption. In an interview earlier in 2026, she explained that adoption had interested her since childhood and that she and Bongiovi wanted to build their family through adoption.

Building Their Family Through Adoption

Brown and Bongiovi married in 2024. Their first child, a daughter, was adopted in 2025. The couple have now welcomed their second child through the same path.

While Brown remains active in the entertainment industry, she and Bongiovi have continued to keep many details about their children away from the public. Their recent posts have offered only limited glimpses of their family life.
