Aside from her long list of acting credentials, Brown has dated a handful of celebrities in the public eye since making her groundbreaking debut in the entertainment industry. Before linking with Jon Bon Jovi's son Jake Bongiovi in June 2021, Brown previously dated other celebrities you probably didn't know about. Keep reading to learn the truth about Millie Bobby Brown's relationship history.
She is currently linked to Jon Bon Jovi's son, Jake Bongiovi
As of this writing, Millie Bobby Brown is currently dating Jon Bon Jovi's son, Jake Bongiovi. It all started back in June 2021 when the two were seen hanging out together. Brown later confirmed that the celebs were an actual couple, making things Instagram official back in November 2021 (via Cosmopolitan). In a blurry kissing picture, Brown subtly made the announcement with a few emojis as the caption, whereas Bongiovi posted this selfie of the two enjoying a cup of tea with the caption, "We're starting a band send name ideas."
Since then, the adorable couple has shared plenty of fun moments of their relationship online, including celebrating Christmas together, attending Brown's 18th birthday party dressed as Ken and Barbie, and even attending their first BAFTAs together (Bongiovi posted a super cute video at the red carpet event). Whether they are sharing pictures of them snuggling or taking trips together, they never fail to provide the sweetest glimpse into their relationship.
Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi took their relationship to the red carpet
Millie Bobby Brown and her boyfriend Jake Bongiovi made their red-carpet debut at the 2022 BAFTAs back in March 2022. The two looked stunning on the carpet, with Brown wearing a black velvet dress featuring a plunging neckline and train, and Bongiovi by her side in a classic black suit with a black bowtie and a Ukrainian flag pinned to his lapel (via "Today"). Although we had seen multiple photos of the couple together on Instagram, seeing them glammed up together took it to a whole new level.
In May 2022, the couple was spotted on another red carpet when the two celebs attended the "Stranger Things" Season 4 premiere together in New York, according to Entertainment Tonight. Brown rocked a blonde hair moment with an iconic black and white gown with a pair of chunky platform heels. Bongiovi matched her perfectly, wearing a black suit with a white turtleneck underneath. Although the couple has only had a few red-carpet appearances together, they crush their looks every time.
Millie was seen with a diamond ring on THAT finger
Although Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi have not been together for the longest time, one particular outing in New York City has left fans questioning whether or not the couple is secretly engaged. Page Six reported in August 2022 that Brown was spotted wearing a diamond ring on that particular ring finger while out and about with Bongiovi. On that day, the couple was seen strolling through New York City having plenty of PDA moments, hugging and kissing one another and looking head over heels in love.
According to Distractify, there is no confirmation at this time whether or not the couple is actually engaged, and it is entirely possible that Brown just decided to wear a flashy ring for the special occasion. Given the relatively short duration of their relationship and their young age, the chances of them actually being engaged are low, but when it comes to Hollywood stars, you never know.
Millie and Joseph Robinson were together for 10 months
In August 2020, Cosmopolitan UK reported that after 10 months of dating, Millie Bobby Brown and boyfriend Joseph Robinson, son of England rugby player Jason Robinson, called it quits. The couple originally met in 2019 during a vacation to the Maldives and were very private about their relationship. Robinson was the first to confirm that romance had sparked between the two when he shared a Snapchat story with the caption "Ly," which is slang for "love you."
A source told The U.S. Sun that the couple's relationship was running its course as both of their schedules became a bit too hectic to manage, with Brown splitting her time between Britain and the U.S. and Robinson managing his rugby career. "They were very full on and happy to show it on social media, but it seems as though things have just run their course. ... The time apart has obviously been challenging. They're both flying in their careers at the moment," the source claimed. The source continued that due to the long distance and each of their demanding schedules, it became difficult to get together, ultimately causing the split.
"Millie has become a huge star overnight and Joseph's rugby career is really on the rise, so perhaps it just wasn't the time for them to have a romance. Of course, they're both still very young, so no doubt there's lots ahead for both of them," the source added.
She was previously tied to David Beckham's son, Romeo
In 2019, the "Stranger Things" actress was linked to Romeo Beckham, son of soccer star David Beckham. Romeo was known for his interest in tennis growing up, and is now a professional soccer player — like father, like son! According to The Sun, Millie Bobby Brown was first introduced to the Beckham family back in December 2016 when she was chosen to present an award with him at Unicef's 70th-anniversary charity gala; they immediately hit it off. When asked about what she would like to see happen to her character Eleven in the Netflix show "Stranger Things," Brown immediately responded, "I don't know. Something with Romeo Beckham" (via Seventeen).
The Sun reported that Romeo's mom, former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham, was supportive of the relationship when it first began and gave her seal of approval. The couple only had a few interactions on social media, including Brown posting a happy birthday message to the soccer star on her Instagram story. Although their relationship was very short-lived, they made a sweet couple at the time. Beckham was later linked to model Mia Regan; the two dated for three years before splitting in July 2022 (via The U.S. Sun).
Millie dated YouTuber Jacob Sartorius in 2018
Back in 2018, Millie Bobby Brown was linked to singer Jacob Sartorius. According to Seventeen, the two dated for seven months before they split, and their relationship was filled with plenty of cute PDA moments online.
Sartorius first became famous by posting lip-sync videos on apps like Vine and Musical.ly, and later released his debut single "Sweatshirt" in 2016 (via The Sun). However, it is not clear how the two broke up. Rumors spread that Sartorius allegedly asked other girls to send him nude photos through Snapchat, causing Brown to delete all of their photos on her Instagram page. Several weeks later, the couple called it quits. They each announced the news of the split through Instagram stories, writing similar messages to their fans assuring them that although they were no longer together, they would remain friends.
"The decision w mills was completely mutual & we are both happy and remaining friends," Sartorius wrote in his story, while Brown shared, "The decision with Jacob and i was completely mutual. We are both happy and remaining friends" (via Billboard).
Her first kiss was actually on set
Many "Stranger Things" fans will always hold a special place in their hearts for Eleven and Mike, portrayed by Millie Bobby Brown and costar Finn Wolfhard. In the show, the two develop feelings for one another and viewers get the chance to watch the pair grow up together. But did you know that Brown's first kiss was actually on set?
In an interview with "Extra," Brown revealed that her kiss with Wolfhard during the first season of the Netflix show was actually her first kiss in real life as well, and Wolfhard technically had never kissed a girl before then, either. Additionally, Brown told the Mirror that the experience was uncomfortable and incredibly awkward because her family was on set. "My dad watched the whole thing, my whole family was there, and it was the most awkward thing in the world," she said.
