Jon Bon Jovi is having a proud dad moment, confirming that his son Jake Bongiovi and Millie Bobby Brown have said "I do!"
The 20-year-old "Stranger Things" breakout star and the 22-year-old actor tied the knot in a "very small family wedding," according to the rocker. Appearing on BBC's "The One Show" on Tuesday, Bon Jovi confirmed the couple's marriage and added that they're doing "great" and "absolutely fantastic."
"The bride looked gorgeous, and Jake is happy as can be," Bon Jovi said in a clip of the show shared on X, formerly Twitter. "It's true."
According to People and The Sun, the two were quietly married over the May 18-19 weekend. USA TODAY reached out to reps for Brown and Bon Jovi for comment.
The couple announced their engagement in a subtle fashion last April, with Brown posting a black-and-white photo of the two of them at the beach. In the picture, Bongiovi is wrapping his arms around his new fiancée from behind as she holds on to his arms, a pose that coincidentally shows off a dazzling engagement ring.

She simply used a Taylor Swift reference to accompany the photo: "I've loved you three summers now, honey, I want 'em all," she captioned the post.
The "Damsel" actor and Bongiovi went Instagram official in November 2021 after sparking romance rumors in June 2021, when they were spotted holding hands through New York City.
The couple later made their red carpet debut at the 2022 BAFTAs.

Millie Bobby Brown called Jake Bongiovi 'the one', Jon Bon Jovi
Last August, Brown called Bongiovi "the one" in an interview with The Sunday Times.
"You can't pinpoint why, it's just the feeling of knowing that that's the person you want to spend the rest of your time with. I think so much of life is overthinking. The one thing that made clear sense to me was him," she said.
"My parents adore him. (Jake and I) both come from parents that have stayed together for a really long time. My parents were young when they got together, so I always had amazing role models for relationships," Brown added. "His family are wonderful people who welcomed me with open arms. I’m really grateful to be a part of their world.”
Her father-in-law also shared his approval of the young couple during an appearance on the "Andy Cohen Live" show in May 2023.
“Millie’s wonderful. Her whole family are great,” Bon Jovi told Cohen. “Jake is very, very happy.”
When asked if he worries about his son getting married in his early 20s, Bon Jovi told Cohen that it wasn’t a concern of his.
"I don’t know if age matters if you find the right partner and you grow together," Bon Jovi said. "That would be my advice: Growing together is wise. So I think all my kids have found people that they think they can grow together with, and we like them all."
