And earlier this year, the couple welcomed their first child together via adoption. “We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy,” they said in a joint statement in August.
More recently, Millie, 21, opened up about how she and Jake, 23, are coping as new parents, telling British Vogue earlier this month: “She’s taught us so much already. Perspective is a huge thing. The smaller things in life are so much more precious. Our days are filled with lots of cuddles and laughter and love. It’s just endless joy.”
Millie also said she and Jake split parenting duties evenly, noting that they’re “50-50 on everything.” She added, “That’s why I’m so grateful to have partnered with him in this life…He is just the most amazing dad.”
This week, a video surfaced online of Millie getting out of a car while holding her baby girl, and then navigating her way past loads of paparazzi to get inside a building.In the clip, which you can watch right here, Jake could be seen standing to one side and gesturing for Millie to walk ahead of him, which she did.

She then seemingly told a photographer who got very close to her, “I am holding my baby,” before warning him to stay away from her.Elsewhere in the clip, Millie’s Stranger Things costar and close friend Noah Schnapp could be seen holding a large purse as he followed Millie and Jake into the building.

Several internet users have since praised Millie for protecting her daughter — whom she is keen to keep private — from the paparazzi, while also questioning why Jake trailed so far behind her.

“Noah carried her bag, while her husband simply smiled at the paparazzi. It’s shameful that your friend does more for you than your husband,” one post on X read. “Her husband walking behind her while she’s carrying their child instead of trying to shield them,” someone else echoed.
“Millie with the baby, Noah with the baby bag, and her husband just being useless,” another tweet read, while someone questioned, “Why is her husband just chilling and walking after them like no care in the world…???
“why is her husband just standing there smiling? he should be by her side blocking the paparazzi,” one user asked, with another writing on Reddit, “I assumed she was alone until he casually strolled on in behind her. WTF.”
