Jon Bon Jovi has spilled the tea that his laaitie Jake Bongiovi married actress Millie Bobby Brown in a “small family wedding”.
During an appearance on The One Show, the 62-year-old rocker said of the newlyweds: “They’re great. They're absolutely fantastic. It was a very small family wedding, and the bride looked gorgeous, and Jake is happy as can be. It’s true.”
A source previously told The Sun newspaper: “Millie and Jake quietly said their vows in America last weekend.
“They are planning a bigger ceremony in the US later this year but now they have legally married and done all the paperwork.
“It was a very low-key, romantic affair with their closest family with them as they said their vows.”
Millie, 20, and Jake, 22, who met in 2021 and got engaged in 2023, were enjoying a family vacation in the Maldives last spring when he proposed during a scuba diving session.
Speaking on the Table Manners podcast, the Stranger Things actress said: “Basically, I was on holiday with my parents and Jake. I had a feeling; I packed a white dress just in case, let’s just say that, and I had my [nails] done in the way I wanted.
“I don't like surprises, I usually know when one is coming. There were conversations before we left about proposals and what I would like, what I wouldn’t.
“We were in the Maldives, so Jake and I were diving one morning, his parents were there.
“A few months before, he said he would never propose while diving. And I thought he wasn’t going to do it and then when I went under - it was actually an hour of diving - before he did it.”
But the British beauty was so excited, she dropped the ring and panicked that it would disappeared forever in the seabed.
She added: “I watched it fall to the bottom of the ocean. He saw it happen, which I’m so proud of him [for], he just threw himself so deep underwater and did this cinematic swoop and when he opened his hand, it was in there.”
