Rock legend Jon Bon Jovi is ready to embrace a new chapter in his life, one that he has been waiting quite some time for. The Livin’ on a Prayer hitmaker has spent the past four decades living the life of a rock and roll star, and now he is more than thrilled to take on an entirely new title as Grandpa.
The music icon is said to be over the moon following the recent adoption of a baby girl by his son Jake Bongiovi and daughter-in-law Millie Bobby Brown. In the past, Jon Bon Jovi has mentioned on numerous occasions that becoming a grandpa is at the top of his list of things left to accomplish. Now he can check that off and show his new granddaughter just how cool a grandpa he can be.
Jon Bon Jovi has always been about being a hands-on father. When he wasn’t on the road, Jon and his wife Dorthea were always front and center, supporting their four children. Sources tell Star Magazine that the couple is “in heaven” over the arrival of the newest Bon Jovi family member.
“Having a baby around again is bringing so much joy,” the source said. Jon reportedly can’t help but brag about how natural and mature Jake and Millie are as new parents.
Jon Bon Jovi’s Family Continues to Grow
2024 was quite the year for Jon and the Bon Jovi family. Jon Bon Jovi has two sons who are married. Jesse Bongiovi married Jesse Light, and Jake married Millie, both in May. Stephanie, Dorthea, and Jon’s only daughter is also engaged to be married and is rumored to walk down the aisle sometime later this year.
While Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi’s adopted baby girl makes the first grandchild for Jon and his wife, it likely won’t be long before they begin to hear the pitter-patter of little feet on the regular.
Millie previously mentioned her wish to become a mom at a young age. She was inspired by her own parents, who started their family in their early twenties. While she hadn’t discussed adoption publicly before, the couple’s decision to welcome a child through adoption fits perfectly with their family-focused lifestyle. “They want at least four kids, but it wouldn’t be surprising if they have more,” the source says.
For Jon Bon Jovi, it’s a joyful time to witness the next generation stepping confidently into parenthood while he gets to enjoy the special role of grandpa. With so much love and excitement surrounding the family, this is one moment everyone is savoring.
As the little family settles into their new rhythm, fans can rest assured that this bubble of happiness is just beginning. And you can bet, Jon Bon Jovi couldn’t be prouder.
