Millie Bobby Brown talks about her proposal
During an appearance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon in February, the Enola Holmes actress revealed the dishes on how her longtime love, Jake Bongiovi, the son of rocker Job Bon Jovi, proposal is one to remember.
According to Brown, she and her 21-year-old fiancé share a love for diving and were on vacation when he proposed. She revealed to Fallon that she saved the story exclusively for his show, recounting how Bongiovi had arranged an early morning dive, a moment she nearly passed up. Brown said, “He’s telling me, ‘We’re going to the same spot we usually go to.’ I’m like, ‘It’s boring, let’s go somewhere new.’ He’s like, ‘No, we have to go to this spot.’” She continued as she tried to imitate the moment, “He gives me like a shell and I like, turn it over and it’s a ring. And I like, looked at him and he was like.”
Unable to give him an answer below the surface, they both attempted to swim back up. However, amidst the excitement, Brown accidentally dropped the engagement ring, quipping that the jewel plummeted "so fast, it was like a cinematic movie."
Eventually, he managed to retrieve the ring, and since April 2023, the couple has been officially engaged.
