“The aspect of adoption in my social work courses was everything and so so meaningful and important,” Millie Bobby Brown shared. “Then I also learned speaking to and reading a lot about being a birth mother and what that journey is. So for me, my husband and I took a lot of time to focus on what that story and what that journey looks like, and then we embarked it.”
Millie Bobby Brown is Open to Giving Birth to a Baby in the Future
Millie Bobby Brown told Kylie Kelce that having a baby is not out of the question for she and Jake.
“Hopefully one day that’s in my future,” she said. “But for me, adoption was always a part of my future. Adoption is love. Adoption is forever.”
Fans love hearing Millie Bobby Brown talking about adopting her baby.
“My oldest child was adopted, and he’s 43 now. I still have vivid memories of getting the call when I was at work that I had a baby boy!” A fan wrote.
This adopted child agreed, writing, “Thanks for bringing up adoption! As someone who is adopted, it can often feel isolating to hear about a mother’s pregnancy because I don’t know anything about my bio mom or when someone refers to my bio parents as my “real” parents, which always makes me mad. So, appreciative of the attention you’re giving it.”
Congratulations to Jake Bongiovi and Millie Bobby Brown on the adoption of their new baby. May life be twice as much fun!
