The post, which was accompanied by the Beatles’ Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, continued by reading: “And then there were 3.” It was then signed off by Millie and her husband Jake, who shared his surname at the end of the message to fans.
Millie and Jake shared the statement on their respective Instagram accounts earlier this evening. The joint post had already amassed more than 250,000 likes on the platform within 30 minutes of it being uploaded by the couple.
The news comes after Millie and Jake, who is the son of Jon Bon Jovi, got married last year following their engagement in 2023. They confirmed that they had tied the knot in separate posts on the platform in October following speculation.
Alongside photos from their wedding, Jake wrote in a post at the time: “Forever and always, your husband.” Whilst Millie wrote, beside a series of photos from the nuptials, in the caption of her post: “Forever and always, your wife.”

Millie previously spoke about wanting to become a parent whilst on the SmartLess podcast in an episode released in March. She said teased that she wants a “big family” with her husband and mentioned the possibility of adopting.
She said: “Jake knows how important it is to me [to have a child].” Millie went on to discuss balancing that ambition with her career, but explained that it’s a “huge thing” for her to start a family.
Millie said on the podcast: “Of course, I want to focus on really establishing myself as an actor and as a producer, but I also find it’s so important to start a family, for me, personally.” Millie then commented: “Like, it’s a huge thing.”
She added: “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. Like, I’m one of four. He’s one of four. So it is definitely in our future.”
Millie went on to mention the prospect of adopting. She said whilst a guest on the podcast earlier this year: “But, for me, like I don’t see having your own child as really any different as adopting.”
