Overview
- A People report published Thursday said a source confirmed the couple welcomed a second child through adoption and the item was quickly republished by InStyle, TMZ and other outlets.
- Speculation grew after Millie Bobby Brown’s Sept. 7 Instagram post from the Dolomites showed her holding a small child while Jake Bongiovi appeared to wear an infant carrier.
- Brown and Bongiovi have not issued a public announcement, they have not released the child’s name, sex or date of birth, and representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
- The reported adoption follows the couple’s August 2025 announcement that they had adopted their first child and fits with Brown’s repeated statements that adopting is part of her family plan.
- Coverage so far relies on a People source and visual cues from social media, so expect continued limited public detail and a focus on protecting the family’s privacy going forward.
