Millie Bobby Brown Debuts Blonde Bombshell Look at 2025 SAG Awards in First Post-Wedding Red Carpet

Millie Bobby Brown’s Blonde Bombshell Moment at 2025 SAG Awards Caps Emotional Stranger Things Farewell

Stepping onto the Shrine Auditorium’s red carpet Sunday night, Millie Bobby Brown didn’t just arrive — she arrived. The 21-year-old Stranger Things star, rocking freshly platinum waves swept into a sleek updo, looked every inch the ‘90s siren in a blush-pink silk gown that clung like liquid confidence. But it wasn’t just the Chopard diamonds dripping from her ears or the glint of her gold wedding band that caught eyes. It was the glow of a woman who’s mastered the art of balancing blockbuster fame with farmhouse serenity.

“It always felt right with him,” Brown told Vanity Fair earlier this month about her May 2024 wedding to Jake Bongiovi, 22, son of rock legend Jon Bon Jovi. The couple, who swapped vows in an intimate ceremony, now call a sprawling Georgia farm home — a far cry from Hawkins, Indiana. “We talked about the family we want, the life we’re building,” she added. “If you’re not fully invested, what’s the point?”

But Sunday was about another love story: saying goodbye to Stranger Things. Holding back tears backstage, Brown confessed filming the final season wrecked her. “I didn’t think it’d hit me until my last day on set,” she said, voice cracking. “I started crying — and I never cry at work.” Her Instagram farewell video, posted hours before the SAGs, showed the cast huddled like siblings. “Isn’t graduation supposed to feel like freedom?” she says in the clip. “But I’m not ready to leave this family.”

The night wasn’t all nostalgia. As a presenter, Brown commanded the stage with the poise of someone who’s grown up on camera — which, of course, she has. Yet beneath the glamour, there’s a rawness. When asked how she juggles marriage and mega-stardom, she grinned: “Love’s the easy part. It’s the demogorgons that keep you up.”
