Millie Bobby Brown shares rare comments about her adopted baby girl

Millie Bobby Brown has shared rare comments about her adopted baby girl and hinted that she wants four kids.

The Stranger Things star, 21, who wed Jake Bongiovi, 23, last year, made the surprise announcement that she had adopted in a social media post from August 21.

She recently shared a first look at her and Jake's adopted baby girl, and now she has discussed her plan for the tot's life in the limelight. 

Speaking to British Vogue for their December issue, Millie was cagey when asked about her baby's personality and shared that she wants to 'protect her' from the spotlight.

She said: 'I'm not going to. For me, it's really important to protect her and her story until she's old enough to potentially one day share it herself. 

'It's not my place to purposefully put her in the spotlight unwillingly. If she chooses to share her personality one day with the world, like I did when I was young, that's something we'd support. 

'But right now, as she's so little… as her parents, it's our job to protect her from that.' 

Elsewhere in the chat, Millie shared her plans for a big family as she added: 'I really want a big family – I'm one of four; he's one of four.'

And of her husband as a dad, she added: 'We are 50-50 on everything. 

'That's why I'm so grateful to have partnered with him in this life – he is just the most amazing dad.'

Announcing their new arrival in August, Millie wrote: 'This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption.'

'We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy.

'And then there were three. Love, Millie and Jake Bongiovi.'

On July 20 Millie dropped a hint there was a baby in their life.

In an Instagram post Jake was seen pushing a stroller in a post shared by Millie captioned: 'helluva summer thus far.' It was not 100 per cent certain what was going on.

The pair married in May 2024 and the couple had discussed having children, adoption and their plans on having a big family.

Earlier this year she said she wanted to be a mother. 

During an appearance on the Smartless podcast, which is hosted by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett, the actress said that although she knows she is 'really young', she is looking forward to motherhood.

'My mom actually had her first child at 21, and my dad was 19. And you know, it's been my thing since before I met Jake,' she explained.

'Since I was a baby... I wanted to be a mom just like the way my mom was to me. And my nan, my grandmother is, she was a huge part of my life. 

'And so, yeah, I mean, Jake knows how important it is to me and, of course, I want to focus on really establishing myself as an actor and as a producer, but I also find it's so important to start a family for me personally,' Millie continued.

'It's a huge thing. Jake was like, we cannot do that until we get married. So that was his thing.'

Millie then added: 'And my thing was, I really want a family. I really want a big family. 

'I'm one of four. He's one of four. So, it is definitely in our future, but, for me, I don't see having your own child, you know, as really any different [from] adopting.'

She went on to say: 'My home is full of love for anyone and anything, and so that is what we kind of stand by, Jake and I, our energy in the house is "the door is always open", and we want everyone to feel really comfortable.'
