The latest development in the romantic saga of Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi is that the couple tied the knot in May 2024. The wedding news came around 13 months after she announced their engagement on Instagram.
The couple have been together for at least four years. During this period, they have been spotted together at major events as much as they have displayed their beautiful connection on social media.
The combined net worth of Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi
According to celebrity wealth tracker Celebrity Net Worth, Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown has a fortune of around USD 14 million as of May 2024. Her wealth is a result of her work as an actor in both movies and TV shows, as well as luxury brand endorsem*nts and her beauty brand.
On the other hand, Jake Bongiovi has a reported net worth of around USD 700,000. In other words, Bongiovi has only about 5 per cent of Brown’s wealth.
In all, therefore, the combined net worth of Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi is around USD 14.7 million.
How Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi earn their fortune
The net worth of Millie Bobby Brown is almost entirely built on her career as an established actress. She is only 20 years old but is already a celebrity with worldwide popularity.
Her rapid rise to fame is entirely because of Netflix’s thriller Stranger Things(2016-present), in which she has played the protagonist, Eleven, since the beginning. Her performance has been hailed as one of the best for a young star. The resounding reception the show received propelled Brown to stardom.
Deadlinereported in March 2018 that Brown earned around USD 30,000 per episode for the first two seasons of Stranger Things. With the success of the show, her earnings shot up to somewhere between USD 200,000 and USD 250,000 per episode for the third season.
Yet multiple media reports indicate that she may have earned as much as USD 300,000 per episode, including bonuses, by the end of the fourth season.
Her earnings are certainly going up for Stranger Things season 5, which is set to be the final season of the massively famous show and is expected to be released in 2025.
According to a January 2023 report by Business Insider, Puck News‘ Matthew Belloni said that Brown’s overall deal with Netflix is “ridiculously lucrative” even though her exact pay for season 5 remains unknown. Belloni, however, mentioned that all the other main cast members of the show are receiving between USD 6 million to USD 9.5 million for the season according to a tier-based system that Netflix created for them. This means that Brown’s pay is above the top tier, which has only Winona Ryder and David Harbour at USD 9.5 million each.
Before Stranger Thingshappened, Brown appeared in minor roles in TV shows such as Intruders(2014), NCIS(2014), Modern Family(2015) and Grey’s Anatomy(2015). Following the success of Stranger Things, Brown was able to make a successful splash on the big screen with Godzilla: King of the Monsters(2019). Her feature film debut was a box office smash. It earned around USD 387 million at the worldwide box office. Reports suggest that Brown was paid USD 1 million for the film.
She also appeared in its sequel, Godzilla vs. Kong (2021), which was an even bigger success.Thus, the sequel earned USD 470 million globally to become one of the highest-grossing movies of 2021. Though her exact paycheck for the sequel is not known, she is expected to have made way more than what she earned for the previous film.
What possibly made Millie Bobby Brown Brown much richer in net worth is her success as both an actor and a producer in the Netflix film adaptation of Enola Holmes. She starred as the titular character, the sister of Sherlock Holmes, in two movies — Enola Holmes(2020) and its 2022 sequel.
Both films were hits and cemented Brown’s popularity as a leading actor, especially since she performed opposite Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes. Reports suggest that Brown earned around USD 6.1 million for the first film and USD 10 million for the sequel. The figures do not include her earnings as a producer of the two movies. Technically, therefore, she must have earned a few more millions of dollars for each of them.
Brown played the lead role in the Netflix dark fantasy film Damsel (2024). Though the film received mixed reviews, her performance was praised by the critics. She will now be seen in the lead role of Michelle in Electric State,which is set for release in 2024.
Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, the film is based on the graphic novel of the same name by Simon Stålenhag. Brown stars alongside a stellar cast comprising Chris Pratt, Ke Huy Quan, Stanley Tucci, Jason Alexander, Brian Cox, Giancarlo Esposito, Anthony Mackie and Billy Bob Thornton among others.
Jake Bongiovi, on the other hand, is yet to start his career in entertainment. The 22-year-old is reportedly set to make his acting debut with the film Sweethearts, whose release date is not known. His illustrious father, Jon Bon Jovi, has a net worth of around USD 410 million.
