Jake Bongiovi proposed to Millie Bobby Brown under the ocean
Millie Bobby Brown revealed in April of last year that she was engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Jake Bongiovi. According to NBC New York, Millie and Jake possibly began seeing each other in 2021. During an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, the actress shared the romantic way Jake proposed to her.
Millie and Jake share a passion for diving, and they even got their diving licenses together. One day, when they were vacationing, Jake woke Millie up at 8 am to go for a dive at their usual spot. After diving "many meters down," Jake presented Millie with a shell that had an engagement ring inside.
Jake put the ring on an excited Millie's finger, who lifted her hand up to flaunt it to her then-fiance, only for the ring to slip and plummet down the ocean. However, Jake dove further into the ocean like a "cinematic movie" to retrieve the ring. She narrated:
"Like, so deep the diver was like 'you can't do that, your ears, literally your brain will explode.' He throws himself, and does a cinematic grab, opens, and he saved the ring."
The actress added:
"I truly feel it is a reflection of who he is and I feel like we're always going to have each other's back and if anyone drops the ball we got it."
As reported by People magazine on May 27, Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony during the previous weekend.
