Millie Bobby Brown has come to her husband's defence amidst criticisms from viral pictures that were uploaded of him raising their child. Millie Bobby Brown was seen on an episode of Not Gonna Lie hosted by Kylie Kelce aired on June 11. She commented on the remarks concerning her husband Jake Bongiovi after pictures of them were circulated in August 2025. In the viral pictures, she was seen holding a car seat and two bags on their outing with their daughter.

However, others wondered why she wasn’t helping carry more of their stuff. Millie brushed off these critics and even addressed their concerns with sarcasm. She said, “Hi, I'm Millie Bobbie Brown and I'm not gonna lie, when did women become incapable of holding their own bags, car seats and stuff?”

Millie Bobby Brown revealed how most times, judgment is made from one instance without knowing the complete story. This actor highlighted the irony within the attitude held by people regarding the females. She also said, “We're all about empowering girls and, ‘You got it' and ‘You don't need a ma,.' But then when I'm like, ‘OK, I can carry my own things,' people are like, ‘Where's your husband?'” She further said, “Nobody knows my husband. My husband is the most polite, sweet, will-do-anything-for-me. But he also knows I'm capable.”

Kylie Kelce, who has four daughters with her spouse, Jason Kelce, commented  Millie Bobby Brown’s statements. “I thought you would because you strike me as the same kind of person,” Millie Bobby  Brown responded while both agreed that they were not ‘broken’ individuals.

Millie and Jake quietly tied the knot in May 2024, and followed up by having a second celebration five months later in Italy. They adopted their first daughter in summer 2025 and made the announcement in August of the same year.
