is telling critics of her husband, Jake Bongiovi, to back off after photos shared online sparked criticism on social media.
the “Stranger Things” star, 22, slammed the backlash Bongiovi, 24, received after paparazzi photos showed her carrying luggage and pushing a stroller without his assistance.
“Hi, I’m Millie Bobby Brown, and I’m not gonna lie, when did women become incapable of holding their own bags, car seats and stuff?” she told host Kylie Kelce. “I can also do it on my own.”
She called the critiques of her husband, stemming from her holding her own suitcases, bags and child, ridiculous. “People are like, ‘Your husband doesn’t hold a single thing.’ Because I’m three miles ahead. I have been planning this all night,” she said.
She continued: “We’re all about empowering girls and, ‘You got it’ and ‘You don’t need a man.’ But then when I’m like, ‘OK, I can carry my own things,’ people are like, ‘Where’s your husband?'”
The “Enola Holmes” actress said that nobody knows her husband, whom she called the “most polite, sweet, will-do-anything-for-me” partner, adding, “But he also knows I’m capable” and “not broken.”
Millie Bobby Brown condemns ‘vicious and angry’ critics
Brown also condemned the “vicious and angry” women who have shamed the actress for becoming a mom at 21.
“For everybody who was like, ‘Oh my God, a 21-year-old mom. Oh my gosh, how could she?’ I’m having the most amazing time. My husband and I say this all the time; it’s like going from black and white to color,” she said.
The couple revealed in August that they adopted a daughter over the summer, writing, “And then there were 3,” in a joint
“We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy,” they wrote.
Brown confirmed her relationship with the son of Bon Jovi frontman Jon Bon Jovi in 2021, and in 2024 they married in a ceremony officiated by Brown’s “Stranger Things” costar Matthew Modine, who played Dr. Martin Brenner.
