Millie Bobby Brown and her husband, Jake Bongiovi, have yet to make a Met Gala appearance together—and this year was no different. Neither star attended the event, likely due to Brown’s filming commitments.
Production on Enola Holmes 3, Brown’s latest Netflix project, began late last month. On April 22, Netflix shared a behind-the-scenes photo of Brown with her co-star Louis Partridge, generating buzz among fans eager for the film’s release.

Brown is also preparing for Stranger Things’s final season, set to debut later this year. In a February interview with Vanity Fair, she reflected on the emotional experience of saying goodbye to her breakout role as Eleven, a character she’s portrayed since the series began. “It wasn’t hitting me this entire time—until yesterday,” Brown told the outlet. “I was on set, and I was like, ‘Well, I have one more day left.’ And I started crying. I don’t actually like to cry at work. I’m a really emotional person, but I try to stay super strong. It made me feel so uncomfortable. Jake was like, ‘It’s good, you have to get it out!’ and I just started welling up.”
She quite literally grew up with the character, and over the years, her own real-life experiences helped shape and deepen her portrayal of Eleven. “I implemented what I was learning as a child, or what I was going through, into her,” she said. “Eleven’s identity was a huge thing that we were kind of fighting with. Is she going to dress as a girl? Or is she gonna dress in the shirts of her adoptive father, Hopper? Or is she gonna be what her friends are helping her to be? At that time in my life, I didn’t know what I wanted to look like, if I preferred more feminine looks, more masculine looks, more androgynous, more grunge. So I implemented that confusion.”
As Brown reflects on Stranger Things and everything it’s brought her, she made one thing clear: “I never wanted to be famous. That was never my thing. I just love acting.”
