“They’re great. They’re absolutely fantastic,” Bon Jovi told BBC’s The One Show on Tuesday (May 28).

“It was a very small family wedding, and the bride looked gorgeous, and Jake is happy as can be.”

Highlights
  • Jon Bon Jovi confirmed his son Jake Bongiovi married Millie Bobby Brown in an intimate ceremony.
  • The couple got engaged in April 2023 with Jake proposing underwater during a dive.
  • The newlyweds are planning a larger wedding ceremony in the United States this year.

“I have one of those licenses to get people married, and Millie thought it’d be great, and then Jake said it would be a great idea,” said Matthew, who played  Eleven’s “Papa,” Dr. Martin Brenner, on the Netflix show.

The 20-year-old actress and the 22-year-old model started dating in 2021, making their relationship public in November of that year.

The Damsel star revealed that her husband made a memorable proposal, popping the question underwater while they were diving.

“I was like, 8 a.m.? Dive? And he’s telling me we’re going to the same spot we usually go to. I’m like, ‘It’s boring, let’s go somewhere new. He’s like, ‘No, we have to go to this spot,'” Millie recalled during a March 2024 interview on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

After going “many meters down,” Jake surprised his wife by handing her a shell with the ring inside.

“The bride looked gorgeous, and Jake is happy as can be,” he added

Millie revealed that she felt a connection with Jake from the moment they met.

“After we met, we knew we never wanted to leave each other’s side,” she told the Sunday Times

“You can’t pinpoint why [someone is ‘the one’]. It’s just the feeling of knowing that that’s the person you want to spend the rest of your time with.”

People congratulated the young couple on their wedding

As a visual editor in the News team, I look for the most interesting pictures and comments to make each post interesting and informative through images, so that you aren't reading only blocks of text. I joined Bored Panda not that long ago, but in this short amount of time I have covered a wide range of topics: from true crime to Taylor Swift memes (my search history is very questionable because of that). In my freetime, I enjoy spending time at the gym, gaming, binging Great British Bake Off and adding yet another tattoo artist that I would love to get a tattoo from to my pinterest board.
