This summer, the entertainment industry went wild when Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi announced the arrival of their adopted daughter. This came as a big surprise for the young couple, who had already been fending off paparazzi and documenting their romance publicly for quite a while! Jon Bon Jovi, the rock star and Jake’s dad, couldn’t hide his enthusiasm about being a grandpa when he spilled the tea on the Dumb Blonde podcast with Bunnie XO and stated it was “crazy, but great.” You could actually hear the smile in his comments! He is very much in love with his granddaughter, and it seems that this new revelation has Jon experiencing a happy buzz. The choice Millie and Jake made to adopt shows great big-hearted love, and Jon and his wife Dorothea Hurley are “here for it.” The loving family vibe exemplified in this situation shows love has no rules!
Cheering on Young Love and Big Moves
Millie, the Stranger Things star, and Jake, who’s carving his own path as an actor, said “I do” last year after three years of dating. At just 21 and 23, they’re young, sure, but don’t let that fool you—these two are wise beyond their years. Jon, chatting on the podcast, couldn’t stop gushing about their strength. “They’re mature beyond their years,” he said, throwing full support behind their marriage and new parenthood gig. Society loves to side-eye young couples taking big steps, but Jon’s having none of it. He sees their love as rock-solid, perfect for building a family. When they dropped the news on August 21, calling it their “beautiful next chapter,” you could feel their joy. And Jon? He’s that grandpa blowing up their phone for baby pics, totally obsessed and owning it.
Rocking Family Life and Music Legends
Even with grandpa duties calling, Jon Bon Jovi’s still out here slaying the music game. His band is gearing up to drop Forever (Legendary Edition), a revamped take on their 2024 album, hitting the scene on October 24. With collabs featuring Avril Lavigne, Bruce Springsteen, and James Bay—plus a cameo from Jelly Roll on “Living Proof”—it’s a big deal. But Jon’s juggling his rock star life with family like a pro. His Dumb Blonde chat wasn’t just about music; it was a peek into his heart, sharing stories that make fans feel like old friends. Balancing sold-out shows with grandkid cuddles? That’s Jon, proving even rock gods melt over life’s little joys, like sneaking in extra time with a new granddaughter.
