Millie Bobby Brown, who is married to Jake Bongiovi, started her career at a very young age and garnered attention with her starring role on BBC America’s Intruders. The actress has also appeared as a guest on shows including Grey’s Anatomy, NCIS, and Modern Family. The successful actress, in a recent interview, got candid about her money and how it has impacted her.
Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown gets honest about finances
Actress Millie Bobby Brown recently appeared on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast, where she dwelled upon spending her money. She shared with the host that she and her husband, Jake Bongiovi, have a different approach to spending money.
Brown started her career at a very young age with a starring role in Once Upon a Time in Wonderland in 2013. But her breakthrough performance came with her starring as Eleven in Stranger Things. She garnered critical acclaim for her performance on the show and went on to solidify her space in the industry.
Millie Bobby Brown appeared in movies including Godzilla, Enola Holmes, Damsel, and others, which has made her one of the prominent figures in the entertainment industry.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, the actress whose net worth comes near about $14 million recently told Alex Cooper that she is super conscious about her finances and usually reaches out to her parents when there is a large sum of money to be dropped. She said,
I really like to be transparent: I grew up with no money. Did not grow up with any money—we never owned a house, so I have, like, a money thing, where I get… I’m just very conscious about money, and my parents say it’s important for me to keep that; it’s just good to know about money and not splurge.
However, her husband, Jake Bongiovi, has a different approach and likes to splurge. Millie Bobby Brown shared that he’s the kind of guy who loves to go shopping but refuses to pack a suitcase because he likes to go shopping in the place they are going. On the other hand, Brown says she likes to shop from Target and Amazon.
Jake Bongiovi is the son of music legend Jon Bon Jovi, who has an estimated net worth of $410 million. Thus, it makes sense that both individuals approach their finances very differently. However, the young couple owns a farm in rural Georgia where they also run an animal rescue organization.

Chu and producer Marc Platt are reportedly attached to the project.
