Millie Bobby Brown, 19, and her boyfriend Jacob "Jake" Bongiovi, 20, are engaged! And, of course, the internet had a lot to say about it.
Earlier today, the Stranger Things star announced that she and Jake — her boyfriend of three years — were taking the next steps in their relationship: marriage. She shared a photo of herself engulfed in his arms, happily showing off her new engagement ring.
Millie captioned the photo, "I've loved you three summers now, honey, I want 'em all." Jake, 20 — who happens to be the son of music icon Jon Bon Jovi — also took to social media to share the big news. He accompanied his post with intimate photos of them together and a caption that read, "Forever."
And while there were many comments congratulating the couple...
...others couldn't see beyond her age. People on Twitter began to show their concern and disapproval of Millie getting engaged at 19, admitting they thought she was "too young." Thus, the trending topic "She's 19" was born, and the debates ensued.
She's 19. You do you sis but I was a mess at 19. Getting married would have been at the bottom of my list at that point. https://t.co/jMzDYIcrV1
Millie Bobby Brown got engaged and everyone’s saying she’s 19, but I thought she was Eleven
This is cute but she's 19, she hasn't had three summers as an adult 😭 https://t.co/6WsNLWArWh
"she's too young" "they're gonna divorce in two months" JUST LEAVE MILLIE BOBBY BROWN ALONE!! LET HER LIVE!!!
19 year olds getting engaged is so military spouse coded like twin just vibe… did u even have an existential crisis over not being a teen anymore or did u just jump straight into the spouse identity
why they saying millie bobby brown got engaged to bon jovi's son like woah that kinda changes things they building an empire over there. nepo baby + child worker is a crazy combo and works when you look at it from the side of generational wealth
millie bobby brown being engaged reminded me of this broad city scene and I just looked it up and she's only 19 💀
I don’t get why everything Millie does has to be overanalyzed….like just let her be😭 if it makes her happy I don’t see the issue I’m sorry. If she wants to get married, she will get married and it doesn’t impact any of y’all period
it’s so crazy because i’ve literally watched millie bobby brown grow up and now she’s getting MARRIED? she literally deserves the whole world after everything she’s been through and i’m SO happy for her
