Before Becoming Mrs. Bongiovi, Millie Bobby Brown Had a Marriage Pact With Her "Stranger Things" Co-Star

Bongiovi, and the plot twist is that she once had a totally different “forever” plan on the table. Before she was posting wedding vibes with Jake, there was a marriage pact floating around with her co-star, Noah Schnapp.

Here’s what makes it messy, in the most celebrity way possible, they were all in the same orbit for years, then suddenly switched lanes. Millie and Jake started posting publicly in June 2021, months later their relationship went viral after she shared a blurry kiss photo, and by summer 2023 the engagement chatter was basically unavoidable after her “three summers” caption and Jake’s “April 11, 2023 Forever” post.

It’s the kind of timeline that makes you wonder what happened to the pact, and why it all changed so fast.

The marriage pact between Millie Bobby Brown and Noah Schnapp is no longer in play after the actor married Jake Bongiovi... twice!

The new Mr. and Mrs. Bongiovi started publicly posting about each other on Instagram in June 2021, three years before their wedding.

Months later, their relationship was made public when Millie shared a blurry photo of them kissing.

That’s when the “marriage pact” with Noah Schnapp stopped feeling like a fun throwaway and started feeling like a past-life plot point.

Young relationships, particularly in the spotlight, can often be complex.

Encouraging self-reflection and emotional honesty in young partnerships can set a solid foundation for the future.

Celebrity relationships often face immense scrutiny, which can amplify pressures.

A day later, this was Bongiovi's corresponding post. He cheekily said they were starting a band and solicited his followers for name ideas.

In the summer of 2023, engagement rumors started after Millie posted this on Instagram with the caption, "I've loved you three summers now, honey, I want 'em all 🤍."

Jake's post and caption, "April 11, 2023 Forever 🤍," fueled the fire even more.

Then Millie and Jake went from quiet Instagram teases to that blurry kiss photo, and the timeline basically did the rest.

Amidst the glitz and glamor, it's crucial to remember the importance of mental health for young celebrities.

No photos of their intimate first wedding have been posted online. Their second grand but still private ceremony looked like an all-white affair!

After Millie captioned her summer post with “I want ’em all,” Jake doubled down with “April 11, 2023 Forever,” and the internet couldn’t look away.

Even Jake’s dad, Bon Jovi, couldn’t resist gushing about their small family wedding, which turned the whole story from romance rumor into full-on reality.</p>

Strong friendships are the foundation of successful romantic partnerships.

Revisiting shared interests and values can reinforce their connection, especially in the public eye.

Mr. and Mrs. Bongiovi are building their "Dream team <3."

Their love story, built on friendship, has unfolded in the public eye, drawing attention to Millie's impressive career and Jake's growing presence in the industry. Jake's father, Bon Jovi, couldn't help but gush about the newlyweds during his recent interview.

He said of the couple, "They're absolutely fantastic. It was a very small family wedding, and the bride looked gorgeous, while Jake was as happy as can be." The proud father beamed during the couple's second wedding.

A year ago, Millie said in her Glamour magazine interview that her then-fiancé helped, even encouraged, her to fall in love with herself. While she never intended to be someone's wife, being with her husband made her realize she didn't have to be "this stereotypical wife for him."

"He doesn't want me to be that either. He wants me to go and do my thing and live my life, and he will hold my hand in the process of that." Now they have forever to hold each other's hands!

Their journey, marked by a private wedding ceremony with family and friends earlier this year, reflects a conscious effort to foster intimacy away from the limelight. Their commitment to nurturing their friendship serves as a strong foundation that allows them to navigate the complexities of fame while maintaining a lasting bond.

The marriage pact got buried under a very real, very public Bongiovi era.
