ALBAWABA - The first birthday Millie Bobby Brown has had since she became a mom.

“22. grateful for my husband and daughter,” the Stranger Things star wrote in the caption of a Thursday, Feb. 19 Instagram post. “for my family and friends. all of my animals. I am so blessed. "Thank you for the birthday wishes,” she added, signing off with "xoxo."

The post only had one picture of Brown sitting with her young daughter on a sandy beach at sunset. The two people looked warm and cozy as they enjoyed a quiet moment together.

Millie Bobby Brown and her 23-year-old husband, Jake Bongiovi, have a baby together. The child's name has not been made public yet.

Five months after getting married in May 2024, the couple said their vows again in a wedding in Italy. The British actress and the son of rock legend Jon Bon Jovi welcomed their first child, described as a “sweet baby girl,” through adoption in the summer of 2025.

Bongiovi also wrote a lovely birthday message for Brown on his Instagram Stories.

"Happy birthday to my lovely wife!" He wrote, "Your heart is like no other," and added a single red heart emoji.

In his message, there was a picture of Brown outside on a sunny day, smiling at the camera while he was playing with some animals.

They've said before that they want to raise their daughter on their Georgia farm with their sheep, goats, cows, horses, cats, and dogs. They have worked hard to make Georgia a great place for families. "[Millie] loves her farm—it's going to be such a special place for the baby to grow up," a source told People shortly after the couple announced their daughter’s arrival.

Millie Bobby Brown has said for a long time that she wants to start a family early and had talked about adoption before she had a child. I really want to have kids. The actress who played Enola Holmes said on the SmartLess show in March 2025, "I really want a big family." "I'm one of four, and Jake is too." Adopting a child is very different from having your own, but I don't see having your own child as really being any different.

She added, "My home is full of love for anyone and anything. That is what we stand by, Jake and I."

Just before the holidays, another person told People that Brown was loving being a mom and couldn't wait to spend Christmas with her family.
