Fans notice incredibly awkward detail in Millie Bobby Brown's engagement announcement

Fans have noticed an awkward detail in Millie Bobby Brown's engagement announcement with Jacob Hurley Bongiovi, the son of legendary musician Jon Bon Jovi.

The Stranger Things star took to Instagram to share a picture of the two together with an engagement ring seen prominently on her finger.

As you can probably imagine, this kind of blew up the internet with a huge outpouring of congratulatory messages for the happy couple.

The general vibe was one of 'OMG CONGRATULATIONS MILLIE' with people also calling for Noah Schnapp to be Best Man at the wedding.

Millie and Jacob first said they were 'BFFs' on each others Instagram pages back in 2021, though subsequent posts showed there was something much deeper to their relationship.

They confirmed their relationship with an Instagram post of them kissing at a Harry Styles concert with the caption: "alexa play love of my life by harry styles."

Now, the Stranger Things star has made another post showing off an engagement ring as the couple shared a joyous embrace.

In the post, the 19-year-old captioned it: "I've loved you three summers now, honey, I want 'em all."

That's a lyric from Taylor Swift's 2019 song 'Lover', and while plenty thought the whole engagement announcement was incredibly sweet there were a few fans who thought using Swift's lyrics was a little bit awkward.

Some fans found it awkward largely because Swift appears to have recently split from long-term partner Joe Alwyn and plenty of Swifties reckon the song 'Lover' was supposed to be about her relationship with him.

One said 'okay Swifties can we talk about the caption' with someone else chipping in to say 'poor Taylor honestly' and another said it was 'not a good time to post Taylor's lyrics'.

Some found awkwardness in the fact that the post was making them feel old, with one writing that they were a 'junior in high school' when Stranger Things first came out and another lamenting that they were '23 and I might die alone).

Others pointed out that this probably means Brown won't be marrying Stranger Things co-star Noah Schnapp after they made a marriage pact to get together if neither of them had found 'the one' by the time they were 40.

They had said that since they were such 'good roomies' they could get together platonically if their respective love lives didn't work out.

Someone else with their priorities in the right place said they were 'just waiting for Barbie updates'.
