Brown and Bongiovi privately married in May 2024 after first sparking romance rumors three years prior.

In March, the Electric State actress revealed that she and Bongiovi, whose father is Jon Bon Jovi, were looking forward to becoming parents.

“My mom actually had her first child at 21, and my dad was 19. And you know, it’s been my thing since before I met Jake,” Brown said on the Smartless podcast. “Since I was a baby, I told my mom, like, baby dolls. I wanted to be a mom just like the way my mom was to me.”

“And my nan, my grandmother is, she was a huge part of my life,” she continued. “And so, yeah, I mean, Jake knows how important it is to me and, of course, I want to focus on really establishing myself as an actor and as a producer, but I also find it’s so important to start a family for me personally. It’s a huge thing. Jake was like, ‘We cannot do that until we get married.’ So that was his thing.”

The Netflix star and her husband both come from families with four children, inspiring the couple to continue the tradition moving forward. “My thing was, I really want a family. I really want a big family,” Brown explained. “I’m one of four. He’s one of four. So, it is definitely in our future, but, for me, I don’t see having your own child, you know, as really any different as in adopting.”
