Announcing their happy news, Brown shared a heartwarming snap on social media of them laughing and smiling as she debuted a large rock on her ring finger.
Speaking to CNN about the wedding, the Stranger Thing’s star said: “Jake is very involved.
"He’s very helpful during the whole process. I’ve never felt alone in it, which I think is really nice. I’m always like, ‘Is this a good idea? Is this a good idea?’
"But ultimately, it’s just a very intimate day for the both of us and we’re really both very excited.”
Sweet right? Well, fans weren’t prepared for an even grander gesture. Something so sweet that many have remarked it is the most ‘awesomely wholesome’ news to come out in Hollywood right now.
Brown’s Stranger Thing’s co-star Matthew Modine confirmed on March 21 that he will be officiating the wedding.
Speaking to Access Hollywood he said: “I have one of those licenses to get people married and Millie thought it’d be great and then Jake said it would be a great idea, so I wrote the wedding vows and they loved what I wrote for them to join hands and to become husband and wife,”
He added: “It’s such a beautiful thing to be able to join two people in holy matrimony.”
Modine has previously explained that he has grown protective over Brown as he has been working with her since the first season of the hit Netflix TV show.
Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show in 2022 he said: “Over the course of my career, the young actors and actresses whose lives were destroyed by that kind of fame and money and everything. It can be very destructive and disorienting.
“I just wanted to do everything I could to make sure she was safe and she understood that a career is a roller coaster, that there’s ups and downs to it.”
