It comes after Millie, 20, revealed in April that she was engaged to boyfriend Jake Bongiovi, 21, who is the son of legendary singer Jon Bon Jovi.
The Stranger Things actress announced the news with a sweet Instagram post alongside her beau.
Showing off her glittering rock in a monochrome image, the star beamed from ear to ear while in the arms of her new fiance.
She captioned the photo: ‘I’ve loved you three summers now baby I want ’em all.
Jake also shared an announcement post on his page, simply writing ‘forever’ alongside two photos of the couple.
To celebrate the happy news, the adoring couple took part in a beach photoshoot – with Millie dressed in a crochet dress, while Jake donned a cream polo shirt.
Their famous friends rushed to the comments to congratulate the happy couple on the news.

While her Stranger Things co-stars Amybeth McNulty and Jamie Campbell Bower also commented, with Amybeth writing: ‘YESSSS!!!!!!!’ and Jamie posts a series of heart emojis.
Tilly Ramsay commented: ‘Congratulations!! xx’
While Jess Wright said: ‘Ommmmgggggg congratulations!!!!!!!!!! @milliebobbybrown that’s great. So happy for you honey’.
The announcement then confirmed any speculation circulating on social media that the pair were engaged after she caught a glimpse of the ring in a post days before.
Posing behind the wheel of a convertible in a picture last year, Millie looked away from the camera and raised her hand in the air, showing off the prominent diamond ring on her finger.
She also sparked rumors last August when she was spotted wearing a gold diamond ring on her wedding finger during a PDA-packed outing.
Revealing they had spent ‘three summers’ together in the announcement post, it comes after the actress spilled some dirt on how she and Jake met.
Millie explained that they connected on Instagram and became friends through the platform before romance was sparked.
Answering the internet’s most searched question about her, she said: ‘We met on Instagram. And we were friends for a bit, and what can I say?’
She introduced Jake to her 62.7 million followers in June 2021 with a cute photo of him posted on Instagram, but it wasn’t until she posted a photo of him kissing her cheek that they were ‘ Instagram Official’.
Millie called Jake her ‘partner for life’ in a gushing post, sharing a series of photos of the pair back in January 2023.
