Future Mrs. Bongiovi! Millie Bobby Brown confirmed that she was engaged to fiancé Jake Bongiovi after she was spotted wearing a giant ring on *that* finger in April 2023.

“I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, I want ’em all,” the Stranger Things star captioned an Instagram photo sharing a big smile while her other half had his arms wrapped around her. Jake, for his part, shared a similar shot, writing, “Forever.”

Is Millie Bobby Brown Engaged?

Ahead of the proposal, the couple sparked major engagement speculation! During an August 2022 outing with her beau, Millie was seen sporting a sparkling gold diamond ring on her wedding finger, according to photos published by the Daily Mail. The couple also shared a sweet smooch while they were out in New York City at the time, appearing head-over-heels in love as they gazed into each other’s eyes while talking for a moment.

Just days prior, the outlet also reported that the Stranger Things actress was rocking a different gold band on the same finger, sparking speculation that the two could have even tied the knot. However, neither one of the lovebirds has confirmed the engagement rumors.

How Did Jake Bongiovi Propose to Millie Bobby Brown?

Almost one year after confirming her engagement, Millie told the story of Jake’s thoughtful proposal that almost went so wrong. During a February 29, 2024, appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the Florence by Mills founder shared that Jake popped the big question during an early morning dive.

“Basically, Jake and I bonded over diving. We love diving, we got our diving licenses together,” she revealed. “I was like, ‘8 a.m., dive?’ … And he’s telling me, ‘We’re going to the same spot we usually go to,’” Millie said. “I’m like, ‘It’s boring, let’s go somewhere new.’ He’s like, ‘No, we have to go to this spot.’”

Once they were meters below the surface, Jake handed Millie a shell with an engagement ring on the inside of it.

“Anyways he puts the ring on my hand and as I go to show him the ring falls off my finger, plummets like, so fast, it was like a cinematic movie. Jake threw himself, like so deep, like the diver was like, ‘You can’t do that, like your ears … literally your brain will explode,’” she continued.

However, Jake quickly swam down and recovered the piece of jewelry, which Millie said is a “reflection of who he is and I feel like we’re always going to have each other’s back and if anyone drops the ball, we got it.”

How Long Have Millie and Jake Been Dating?

In June 2021, rocker Jon Bon Jovi’s son shared a sweet photo with his girlfriend via Instagram.

“BFF <3,” he wrote alongside a selfie of them in a car together. That month, the pair were photographed holding hands while walking through the city that never sleeps.

However, they didn’t confirm they were officially an item until that November, when Millie shared an adorable, blurry PDA-packed picture on her account of them embracing while visiting the London Eye Ferris wheel. After that, Millie and Jake attended multiple red carPet events together, effectively confirming that they were, indeed, in love.

In January 2022, the Emmy nominee seemingly announced that she was, in fact, in a happy relationship during an interview with Seventeen. At the time, Millie explained that her favorite Olivia Rodrigo song was “1 Step Forward, 3 Steps Back.”

“It makes me wanna cry every time,” she said before adding, I think my boyfriend’s gonna kill me if I listen to it around him anymore.”

Two months later, she and Jake made their red carPet debut at the 2022 British Academy Film Awards in London.

Fans of the duo can also recall that they both attended Millie’s Stranger Things season 4 premiere in May of that year, which Jake made sure to congratulate Millie for her accomplishment.
