“It’s beautiful, I want to see pictures like every day,” he continued. “I’m that pain in the butt guy already. It’s cool.”
Earlier in the clip, Bon Jovi had gushed about his daughter-in-law’s work ethic while revealing why he gave his seal of approval to her and Bongiovi’s marriage.
The couple secretly tied the knot in May 2024 with their closest family in attendance, including Bongiovi’s parents and his wife, Dorothea Bongiovi, after first sparking romance rumors in June 2021.
“She’s a sweetheart and she’s a hard worker,” Bon Jovi said of Stranger Things star Brown. “I tell her all the time how much I admire her because her work ethic is unbelievable.
“They got married very young, but we blessed it because we get it. They are sort of mature beyond their years.”
“She comes from a family where her parents are still together and they married very young,” he added. “Her and Jake fell in love and we just thought, OK, we will support this.
“And it’s working out,” Bon Jovi concluded.
