Millie Bobby Brown recently shared a heartwarming glimpse into her life, captioning it "the life of a showgirl" on Instagram. The post, shared on December 3, 2025, offers a peek into her multifaceted world as an actress and a new mother.
The Instagram carousel includes behind-the-scenes moments from the filming of the final season of "Stranger Things," which premiered its first batch of new episodes over the Thanksgiving holiday. Brown, who plays the character Eleven, included video clips of stunts that went slightly awry during the season. One clip shows her rolling under barbed wire before bumping her head, while another captures her tripping in a junkyard and turning it into an action-style roll. Amy Parris, the show's costume designer, revealed that Brown's character's outfit in these scenes was inspired by Josh Brolin's look in "The Goonies". The final season is already "Certified Fresh" on Rotten Tomatoes, boasting an 84% critic score.
Beyond her acting life, Brown also shared precious moments with her family. In one photo, she is seen bundled up, holding her baby girl next to her father-in-law, Jon Bon Jovi. Another black and white snapshot features Brown and her husband, Jake Bongiovi, with their daughter nestled between them. A further image shows Brown cradling her baby outside, near a serene pool. Brown and Bongiovi adopted their daughter in August and have been protective of her privacy, choosing not to reveal her name or face publicly.
The post also features a video of Brown in a recording studio, possibly doing ADR for "Stranger Things" or another project. Observant fans noticed that she was subtly rocking a stroller with her foot while working, showcasing her multitasking skills as a mom.
Brown's fans have reacted positively to the intimate look into her life. Many have praised her as an "amazing mom" and lauded her ability to balance her career and motherhood.
In a recent interview with British Vogue, Brown shared her thoughts on motherhood. "It's been a beautiful, amazing journey—she's taught us so much already," Brown said. She also emphasized the importance of protecting her daughter's privacy, stating that she will not share personal details about her until her daughter is old enough to decide for herself. Brown highlighted that she and Bongiovi are splitting parenting duties equally and expressed her desire to have a big family in the future.
