Millie Bobby Brown's family just got bigger, and the star is delighted!
Writing on her Instagram page, she's shared the happy news that she and her husband, Jake Bongiovi, have welcomed a little girl.
"This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption," the Stranger Things actress said. "We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy.
"And then there were 3. Love, Millie and Jake Bongiovi."

Millie, 21, married Jon Bon Jovi's son Jake, 23, in a lavish ceremony last year.
Millie has long spoken about her desire to have a big family, with the most recent being on the Smartless podcast.
She recalled: "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."
"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.
"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."
She said Jake had reservations at first though: "Jake was like, we cannot do that until we get married. So that was his thing.'
She continued: "I really want a family. I really want a big family. 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."
Millie continued: "My home is full of love for anyone and anything, and so that is what we kind of stand by, Jake and I, is our energy in the house is the door is always open, and we want everyone to feel really comfortable."
Now it seems like her dream has started to come true with the addition of their daughter.
Millie told Vanity Fair earlier this year, that even though she and Jake are young, they had the important conversations about the life they want together.
She said they discussed 'what kind of family we want to build, the kind of home we want to live in, the kind of relationship we're looking for, the kind of careers we want.'
"It's such an important decision, and we wanted to make sure we were making the right one. I knew I was. It always felt right with him," she explained.
Congratulations to them both!
