Inside Millie Bobby Brown's whirlwind engagement to Jon Bon Jovi's son

Millie Bobby Brown has shocked her fans and celeb pals with news of her engagement to Jon Bon Jovi's son Jake.

The Stranger Things star, 19, has been dating Jake Bongiovi for two and a half years and shared their exciting news to fans on Instagram.

Jake, 20, took their relationship to the next level by getting down on one knee to the teen actress at what appeared to be a seaside spot.

Millie shared a snap shortly after the proposal where she looked rather emotional after saying yes and showed off her diamond ring.

"I've loved you three summers now, honey, I want 'em all," Millie captioned her pic with the Taylor Swift lyric, which saw Jake wrapping his arms around his new fiancée.

Millie's famous pals flocked to the comment section to celebrate her news.

Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays Stanger Things' season 4 baddie Vecna, commented a row of red heart emojis.

"Beautiful! So happy for you," wrote fellow Stranger Things star Cara Buono.

Netflix star Amy Beth McNulty added: "YESSSS!!!!!!."

HRVY penned: "Wooooo."

"Congrats guys!" added Hannah Dodd.

Some fans did not seem too impressed with the news, as one questioned: "Isn’t she only 19 years old?"

"Omgg too young," added another.

"Okay swifties can we talk about the caption...," pointed out another, following claims Taylor Swift has split from her partner of six years Joe Alwyn.

Yet many came to Millie's defence, saying: "She’s technically an adult and can make her own choices. I got engaged at 19 and was married at 19 and now almost 10 years later we’re still together."

"'she’s only 19' SHUT UP," quipped another.

Millie and Jake met through Instagram where they initially struck up a friendship.

She said: "We met on Instagram. And we were friends for a bit, and then, what can I say?"

The couple went public with their relationship in June 2021 as she shared a snap of Jake kissing her cheek on the London Eye, noting that they were "Instagram official".

They made their red carpet debut in March at the 2022 BAFTAs in London before heading to the season 4 premiere of Stranger Things in New York in May.

Millie grabbed the headlines as she looked all grown up, dressed in a one-shouldered, white satin Louis Vuitton gown, with her boyfriend in a black suit jacket, matching trousers and a white turtleneck sweater.

Earlier this year, Millie hinted that their relationship was heating up as she branded Jake her "partner for life" in a gushing New Years Eve Instagram post.

Millie penned: "Endlessly in love with the year I've had! grateful for my friends, family, donkey (bernard), my doggies, my puppies teeth, and my partner for life.

"Here's to another year with you and the wonderful people and animals around us let's do it again but better."
