Millie Bobby Brown had to address rumours she was pregnant after being spotted buying nappies

The Stranger Things star has quite the brood at home

We’ve all been in a situation where we’ve had to buy something from the shops while crossing our fingers we don’t bump into someone we know.

But let’s be honest, there’s no shame in whatever it is you’re picking up from the big Tesco or from bossman at the corner shop in your PJs.

Although, when you’re a celebrity, it might be a little harder to get away with making unique purchases.

And Millie Bobby Brown had to address rumours she was pregnant after being spotted buying nappies.

The 21-year-old can’t seem to catch a break, with her appearance and fashion under much scrutiny and even her shopping habits being picked apart.

While publicly having a pretty glamorous persona, having sported a nineties style while promoting her new film, The Electric State, life at home is far more rural and relaxed for Brown.

The Stranger Things star often opens up about living on a farm with husband Jake Bongiovi, where they have quite the set of animals.

Part of the reason she actually moved out while in her teens was because her parents weren’t so keen on the idea of her having any more animals under their roof.

“At that point I had two dogs and a rabbit living in my room, so I ended up buying a house right next to them so I have a house next to them in London and a house next to them in Georgia right across the street,” she explained on the Call Her Daddy podcast.

But nowadays, she’s got 25 farm animals including goats, cows, donkeys and a whopping 33 dogs - 23 of which live in a rescue sanctuary she built.

Brown particularly enjoys rescuing goats, having shared BTS footage of taking one of the little baby ones on the Netflix set during filming.

But it’s with this looking after of the animals that led to the false pregnancy rumours.

“Jake had to kind of draw the line at some point, because we were bringing in these goats that sleep in our bed and they were in diapers,” she said on the Smartless podcast.

“People started thinking I was pregnant because I was buying bottles and nappies and all the things.”

Brown explained they were ‘basically babies’ as she added: “And so I would sleep with them and Jake. They would be in the middle and they are so cute. Then they reach around, like, eight weeks old, and they're full grown and have horns, and they're wanting to go outside.”

As for having human babies of their own, starting a family is ‘so important’ to the star.

“For me personally, it's a huge thing. Jake was like, 'We cannot do that until we get married.' So that was his thing. And my thing was, '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,” she said.
