It’s his life.
Jon Bon Jovi approves of his 20-year-old son Jake Bongiovi proposing to 19-year-old Millie Bobby Brown.
“I don’t know if age matters,” the rockstar said on SiriusXM’s “Radio Andy” show Tuesday when asked if he “worries” for the young couple.
“If you find the right partner and you grow together, I think that would be my advice, really, is growing together is wise.”
Bon Jovi, 61, has been married to his high school sweetheart, Dorothea Hurley, since 1989.
Aside from Bongiovi, they share three other kids: Stephanie, 29, Jesse, 28, and Romeo, 19.
Bon Jovi also told host Andy Cohen that three out of his four kids are currently engaged and spoke highly of his future in-laws.

“I think that all of my kids have found the people that they think they can grow together with and we like ’em all,” the “Livin’ On a Prayer” singer added.
In April, Brown announced on Instagram that she was engaged to Bongiovi.
“I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, I want ’em all 🤍,” the “Stranger Things” star captioned a black-and-white photo from the beachfront proposal.
The aspiring actor popped the question with a round diamond ring estimated to cost anywhere from $75,000 to $150,000, according to experts.
While the couple appeared smitten on social media, some fans were gobsmacked by the fact that the pair decided to take such a big step in their relationship at their age.
“What? She’s eleven,” one punster wrote in the comments section of Brown’s post, referencing the actress’ character’s name in her hit Netflix show.
Another asked, “Isn’t she only 19 years old?”
“Omgg too young,” a third commented.
However, others — like Bon Jovi — came to the “Enola Holmes” star’s defense.
“She’s technically an adult and can make her own choices,” one fan commented before adding, “I got engaged at 19 and was married at 19 and now almost 10 years later we’re still together, would I be okay with my kids getting married at 19? Eh probably not but still congrats to them!”
Another agreed, “i hate that ppl keep assuming she’s a teenager she’s almost 20 and she got engaged !!! be happy for her some of ya popping babies before 19 and not even know who the daddy is … let this girl be happy.”
Brown and Bongiovi have not addressed the criticism themselves.
