Millie and Jake enjoyed a summery date night in the Midwest when they attended the first concert of Taylor Swift’s Eras tour in Cincinnati on June 30. The couple was seen in the VIP tent, as in love as ever.
Clearly she’s in her own real-life Lover era, Millie chose a Lover-inspired look for the evening, wearing a pink-on-pink-on-pink ensemble that included oversized heart earrings and a pink fringed jacket. She even drew a sparkly heart around her right eye, Γ la Taylor on the Lover album cover.
August 2023
In her latest interview with Women’s Wear Daily, Millie discussed the new Florence By Mills fragrance and opened up about her relationship with ~fiancΓ©~ Jake Bongiovi. Since they began dating, the couple have kept their romance under wraps, except for the news of their engagement. MBB reveals that they also intend to keep their wedding – which is currently being planned – private.
“I think (for the wedding) we’ll probably draw the curtains, because there are so many moments in life that you only live once,” explains Millie, “and having the opinions and the eyes of the whole world looking at you doesn’t feel natural to me. So that I think it’s important to keep those things, those precious little moments in life, very close to your chest.” I can say that the planning is going from strength to strength: it’s a lot of fun and it’s a very exciting time in my life.”
What a monkey! Stay tuned, because something tells us that Millie and Jake’s lovefest is right around the corner.
