Jon Bon Jovi is giving son Jake Bongiovi and actress Millie Bobby Brown's romance his full blessing, opening up about their relationship during a recent public appearance.
Bon Jovi was the guest of honor at the 2024 MusiCares Person of the Year event in Los Angeles, Calif., where he spoke to E! News about his career, family and more, including his son and his fiancée.
Discussing Bongiovi and Brown's romance, Bon Jovi assuredly said, "They're growing together. They're madly in love and we love them both for that. It's an exciting adventure."
He was also asked about whether or not he'll sing at the upcoming wedding, with the "Livin' on a Prayer" singer joking, "It would be a nice way to recoup some of the money that it's costing me for one, two, three weddings this year."
The detail about three upcoming weddings this year appears to be new public information. E! News asked why there were so many weddings coming up, leading Bon Jovi to respond, "Kids fall in love. You know, they've all got great partners and we're looking forward to it."
Bon Jovi's statements seemingly confirm that Brown and Bongiovi will be tying the knot in 2024. As for the other two weddings, the singer's older son Jesse has been engaged to girlfriend Jesse Light since 2022, while his two other children—eldest Stephanie and youngest Romeo—are very private, so not much is known about them, much less their romantic life.
The 61-year-old singer previously defended his son and the Stranger Things actress' romance from people who criticized them for their young age, as Bongiovi is 21 and Brown is 19, saying on a radio show, "I don't know if age matters. If you find the right partner and you grow together, I think that would be my advice really: growing together is wise."
Brown and Bongiovi started dating in 2021, with the couple announcing their engagement in April 2023.
