Millie Bobby Brown has shared new Instagram images that highlight her post-adoption life with husband Jake Bongiovi, including a display of her toned abs.
In the selfie, the Stranger Things star wears a burgundy cable-knit crop top and matching leggings, with her messy blonde hair pulled back and pale plum lipstick. The caption reads, "Not a ballerina… but I play one," tagging her Florence by Mills Fashion line, which Brown has described as designed to be worn your way.
Brown and Bongiovi announced they had welcomed a baby girl through adoption in a post on Aug. 21. A subsequent carousel included a photo on the tarmac of Brown and Bongiovi with the child beneath blankets in a carrier; the baby's face was not visible. The couple, who wed in May 2024 in Italy, have discussed expanding their family for years. The Instagram post came days after Brown hinted there was a baby in their life when Bongiovi shared a photo of a stroller, captioned "helluva summer thus far."
Earlier this week, Brown appeared in a magenta outfit, continuing a public presence that blends fashion and family moments. On Labor Day, she posted the carrier photo with the baby on a private jet, underscoring that the family is navigating the new chapter with privacy in mind.
Brown has said that motherhood is important to her. In a February interview with Vanity Fair, she described how she and Bongiovi are "pretty united" on major topics and life goals, including family. She said she has wanted to be a mother since she was a child, noting that her mother and grandmother were strong influences. "It's such an important decision, and we wanted to make sure we were making the right one. I knew I was." Brown and Bongiovi's relationship began in 2021 and they became engaged in April 2023, marrying in May 2024 at Villa Cetinale in Tuscany.
Brown's career and brand ambitions continue to shape her. She has built Florence by Mills as a fashion line intended to reflect individuality, and she has stressed that her life as an actor and producer will continue alongside her family plans.
