Jon Bon Jovi is one proud father of the groom.

The rocker gushed over his son Jake Bongiovi’s wedding to Millie Bobby Brown after the couple quietly walked down the aisle earlier this month.

“They’re great, they’re absolutely fantastic,” Bon Jovi, 62, told BBC’s “The One Show” on Tuesday.

“It was a very small, family wedding and the bride looked gorgeous and Jake is happy as can be.”

Jon Bon Jovi raved over his son Jake Bongiovi’s recent wedding to Millie Bobby Brown during his Tuesday appearance on BBC’s “The One Show.”
“It was a very small, family wedding and the bride looked gorgeous and Jake is happy as can be,” he said.

Last Friday, reports surfaced about the “Stranger Things” actress, 20, and the model, 22, secretly tying the knot in an intimate ceremony.

“They are planning a bigger ceremony in the US later this year but now they have legally married and done all the paperwork,” an insider told the US Sun.

“It was a very low-key, romantic affair with their closest family with them as they said their vows.”

That same day, the newlyweds were spotted shopping in the Hamptons while rocking their wedding bands in their first public sighting since saying “I do.”

They appeared blissful, with a smiling Brown even thanking paparazzi who congratulated them on their surprise nuptials.

The “Damsel” star and her new husband sparked romance rumors in June 2021 after Bongiovi shared a photo of them in a car with the caption, “bff <3.”

They went Instagram-official that November.

Brown revealed their engagement in April 2023 by sharing a black-and-white photo of Jake wrapping his arms around her. She showed off her stunning sparkler on that finger while flashing a huge grin.

“I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, I want ’em all 🤍,” she penned in the caption, quoting Taylor Swift’s song “Lover.”

Ahead of the wedding, Bon Jovi expressed his excitement over their relationship.

“I’ve gotten to know her in the last year, she works really hard, and she and Jake will grow together in their own way,” he told the Times in April.

“It is an accelerated version of what I went through 40 years ago and I think, with the support of family around them, they’re gonna be great together.”

Brown previously confirmed that the Grammy-winning musician was not planning on performing at their wedding.
