Jon Bon Jovi OK with son’s engagement to Millie Bobby Brown, age not a concern.

Jon Bon Jovi’s Son Jake Bongiovi Gets Engaged to Millie Bobby Brown

Legendary rock star Jon Bon Jovi recently reflected on his son’s engagement, indicating he disagreed with criticism that the 20-year-old was too young to get married.

Brown and Bon Jovi’s son announced their engagement last month after two years of dating when Brown shared a photo of them with a line from a Taylor Swift song, “I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, I want ’em all.” The couple faced criticism from fans saying they were too young to marry.

Age is Just a Number

During an appearance on SiriusXM’s “Radio Andy,” Bon Jovi discussed the upcoming nuptials. Cohen mentioned how Bon Jovi and his wife, Dorothea, were high school sweethearts and have been married for 34 years. When asked if he worries about his son getting engaged at a young age, Bon Jovi said, “I don’t know if age matters. If you find the right partner and you grow together… All of my kids have found the people that they think they can grow together with and we like ’em all.”

Congratulations Pour In

Despite the criticism, many fans came to the couple’s defense, sharing their own stories of young marriages that lasted decades. “Congrats! My mom got married a week before her 19th birthday, everyone said her marriage would never work because of her age, but my parents still have the most millie-bobby-brown-19-i-dont-know-if-age-matters/” title=”Jon Bon Jovi OK with son’s engagement to Millie Bobby Brown, age not a concern.”>beautiful lovely marriage I’ve ever seen!” one commenter wrote on Instagram.

“People still talk about age? Also, I don’t believe she asked for anyone’s opinion or advice. Move along,” another fan wrote.

“This should be normalized,” a third person shared. “My Fiancé (19) and I (21) are getting married in 21 weeks. Getting married young means we get to grow up together and experience a fuller life with each other. Tradition may have a stigma but that doesn’t make it any less reliable and trustworthy. I admire you Millie!”

It’s clear that Jake and Millie have found love at a young age, and their families couldn’t be happier for them. Congratulations to the happy couple!
