AceShowbiz - Celebrities often seem like larger-than-life figures, but sometimes they reveal their relatable quirks. However, Jake Bongiovi appears to belong to a different realm altogether. Recently, a video went viral of his wife Millie Bobby Brown explaining her husband's unique vacation habit: he doesn't pack a suitcase.
The "Stranger Things" actress dished on the surprising fact about her husband on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast hosted by Alex Cooper during a promotional tour for her latest movie, "The Electric State".
When asked about their spending habits, Brown shared a humorous insight into her husband's extravagant ways. "I'll be like, 'Oh, I need socks.' He'll be like, 'Let's go to Prada.' And I'm like, 'Let's go to Target.' Like what? He's just like that kind of guy," she said. "He will refuse to pack a suitcase, because he likes to go shopping in the place we're going."
Given Jake Bongiovi's upbringing as the son of legendary musician Jon Bon Jovi, his high-end spending habits aren't entirely surprising. It's clear that he has grown up accustomed to the finer things in life, making his fashion-forward way of vacationing seem almost natural. While this lifestyle prompts some eyebrow-raising moments, it's simply the norm for him.
On the other hand, Millie Bobby Brown's approach to spending money is grounded in her more modest upbringing. She admits to being mindful about her purchases, often consulting her parents before making expensive buys.
"Even when I do spend money on something, I have to call my parents," she said. "I have to think about it; I go back. I don't just buy it right away."
She recounted a specific instance where she stressed over purchasing a pair of Chanel sunglasses, only to be reassured by her parents to go ahead and buy them because she liked them.
Despite the differences in their financial behavior, Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi share a loving relationship. They began dating in 2021, got engaged in 2023, and tied the knot in the spring of 2024 with a lavish honeymoon in Porto Cervo, Sardinia, accompanied by Jon Bon Jovi and wife Dorothea Hurley.
As much as we might envy Jake Bongiovi's carefree approach to shopping, many of us can relate more to Millie Bobby Brown's practical mindset.
