Millie Bobby Brown may be the star of “Stranger Things,” but these days she’s embracing the simpler things.

The Emmy nominee has settled into a quieter lifestyle since welcoming her second child with husband Jake Bongiovi, a source exclusively told Page Six.

“Millie and Jake were still going out quite a bit after adopting their daughter,” the insider said. “They loved spending time with friends, going to parties and enjoying nights out together, and they were still enjoying that part of their lives. But things have definitely changed since welcoming their second baby.”

According to the source, Brown, 22, has “really slowed down” socially and is spending much more of her time at home with Bongiovi, 24, and their two children.

“She isn’t nearly as interested in going out as much anymore,” the insider said. “She’s much more of a homebody these days and would rather spend time with Jake and the kids than be out partying.”

Although the “Enola Holmes” star is still enjoying her 20s, her family has increasingly become the center of her world.

“She’s still young and likes to have fun, but her priorities have shifted,” the source said. “She’s really enjoying this chapter of her life and having a family of four.”

Brown currently has a packed slate of upcoming projects, including “Nineteen Steps,” which is filming, “Prism,” which is in pre-production, and an upcoming Netflix spy series with her “Stranger Things” co-star David Harbour.

The pair announced the news in August 2025, telling fans they were “beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy.”
