Millie Bobby Brown marked husband Jake Bongiovi’s 24th with a cozy PDA shot on Instagram, gushing, My person’s day, today and always — his first birthday as a father.

Millie Bobby Brown used Jake Bongiovi's 24th birthday as a reason to drop a beachy PDA shot and a big, gushy caption. Also worth flagging: this is his first birthday as a dad after the two adopted a baby girl last summer. Busy couple of years for these two.

"My person's day, today and always... I love you!!!!!!!"

The photo she posted Thursday, May 7, is straight out of vacation-core: sunset behind them, arms wrapped tight around each other. She is in a polka-dot top with matching pants, hair in a half-up bob clipped back. He is in a striped polo and khaki shorts, one arm around her lower back, doing the 'do not let go' pose.

Fans did what fans do in the comments, dropping things like "So cute!! 🥹🥹," "My favourite couple ❤️," and "Your love is the best! Happy birthday🎂🫶🏼."

How we got here (the quick version)

  • June 2021: They start popping up on Instagram together, which kicks off the dating chatter. By November 2021, they make it official to the public.
  • March 2022: First red carpet together at the BAFTA Film Awards.
  • April 2023: Engagement announcement on Instagram, with Brown nodding to the 'three summers' line and flashing a cushion-cut diamond with a halo in a black-and-white shot of him hugging her from behind.
  • May 2024: They quietly get married in a small, intimate ceremony. Later, they do the bigger, more formal celebration in Italy. Yes, two weddings. Why not.
  • August 2025: They announce they adopted a baby girl over the summer, saying they were excited to start this next chapter and wanted to keep it peaceful and private. They sign the post with both their names and add, "And then there were 3."

Brown, 22, has been pretty clear about how she wants to handle motherhood in public. In a November 2025 interview with British Vogue, she said she plans to protect her daughter's story until she's old enough to tell it herself, and that if her kid ever wants the spotlight, they would support that choice. For now, though, privacy wins. She also talked about how the small stuff hits harder these days: lots of cuddles, laughter, and the kind of day-to-day joy you do not appreciate until you are living it.

So yeah, the birthday post is cute. And if it feels like their relationship has moved fast, it kind of has — but it's also been consistent: milestones on social, milestones in real life, and now a family, with both public romance and private boundaries. That balance is not easy, but they are clearly trying to keep it that way.
