Millie Bobby Brown and husband Jake Bongiovi brought a dose of old-school glamour to the premiere of The Electric State in Los Angeles.
The couple hit the black carpet on Monday, February 24, posing for photos outside The Egyptian Theatre Hollywood. Brown, 21, looked regal in a metallic gown that boasted delicate embroidery and dramatic draping, which she accessorized with a short jacket in matching fabric, a gold beaded choker necklace and diamond drop earrings. The actress’ golden blond hair was swept into an updo, and she flaunted a shimmery silver shadow on her eyelids.
Brown stars alongside Chris Pratt and Stanley Tucci in Netflix’s The Electric State, a sci-fi film set to premiere March 14.
Her dashing date, 22-year-old Bongiovi, sported a black-and-white tuxedo and a floppy hairstyle reminiscent of Leonardo DiCaprio’s Titanic ‘do at Monday’s premiere.
The Stranger Things star and Bongiovi — a model, actor and son of musician Jon Bon Jovi — tied the knot in May 2024 after two years of dating and are now living on a farm in Georgia, a low-key lifestyle that she finds fulfilling.
“I’m not doing it for the aesthetic,” Brown told Vanity Fair in an interview published earlier this month. “I’m doing it because I love it.”
She said that she feels her happiest on the farm, regularly going off the grid by unplugging her phone and letting others handle her social media. And while she enjoys the rustic life, she does not subscribe to the “trad wife” trend.
“There are maybe some trad wives out there doing it because it seems wholesome, but it is not,” Brown said. “If you’re not picking up horse s— or washing a cow with your bare hands, then that life is not made for you. At all.”
Bongiovi is also enjoying a slower pace away from the spotlight.
“We were pretty united going into it,” Brown said of her man. “We talked about our political views, what kind of family we want to build, the kind of home we want to live in, the kind of relationship we’re looking for, the kind of careers we want. It’s such an important decision, and we wanted to make sure we were making the right one. I knew I was. It always felt right with him.”
Brown previously opened up about how she and Bongiovi first met, revealing that they first connected on Instagram, instantly hitting it off from their initial conversation.
“I was curious about him and wanted to learn more,” she told The Sunday Times in August 2023. “From our very first chat, I knew he was going to play a significant role in my life. After we met, it was clear we never wanted to be apart.”
