Millie Bobby Brown ‘agreed to marry’ one of her Stranger Things co-stars before her wedding to Jake Bongiovi.
The 20-year-old married the son of the legendary Jon Bon Jovi earlier this year and let’s face it, it made a lot of us feel pretty old.
Brown burst onto our screens as Eleven in the hit Netflix series a whole eight years ago now, and we’re finally set to get the fifth (and final) season in 2025.
Having practically grown up together, it’s fair to say plenty of the Stranger Things cast have formed strong bonds and friendships.

So close that, at one point, Brown vowed to marry Noah Schnapp (who turns 20 tomorrow, 3 October) if they were both still single when they turned 40.
Yep, if Brown hadn’t married Bongiovi, she might have been on track to wed the Will Byers actor.
In a 2022 interview, the Enola Holmes star told MTV News: “We said if we're not married by 40, we'll get married together because we'd be good roomies.
“Completely platonically, we would still be really good roomies.”

But she did go on to point out a few important conditions for their marriage pact.
“No kids, though, because I could not deal with a child of yours, yeah, that's my dealbreaker too. Yeah, no kids at all,” the pair agreed
"Only dogs, and separate bedrooms, for sure, my God, you're so messy."
I mean, it sounds like her marriage to Bongiovi has probably turned out to be a better deal anyway.

But the pair did go on to open up about their close friendship at the time.
“We have built such a friendship together,” Brown said.
“And you're also one of the longest friends I've ever had. I don't know if you knew that, but like, I didn't grow up in school, so I didn't have any friends from my childhood. So you are really one of those people for me.”
And Schnapp agreed as he said their friendship helped with their ‘chemistry’ on screen as it all made going into work ‘so much easier’.
“I just love being at work and stuff, and I think when you love it and you're having fun you could do such a better job,” he added.

“We both encourage each other and cheer each other on when we're doing well. It's nice to have that support.”
Brown also added that he’d always been her ‘biggest supporter’ and how important it is to have ‘boys who support girls’.
