Internet Calls Jake Bongiovi “Useless” Father as Millie Bobby Brown Does Parent-Level Heavy-Lifting Alone

A soft and sweet new chapter in Millie Bobby Brown's life is in the limelight as she tenderly cares for her baby girl as a new mother. In a sacred circle of love, change, and quaint happiness, Brown's lullabies tell more heartfelt stories than ever. On the other hand, the shadows of her other half, Jake Bongiovi, wandering behind her at an arm's length have caused a mass uproar online. His seemingly distant attitude while Brown carried the load alone triggered a whirlwind of hilarious reactions on X.
A viral footage of Millie Bobby Brown rushing into a building, covering the baby while threatening the paparazzi to stay away, has sparked an outcry on X. Not for the strong tone as she rebuked the photographers who were snaking in to snap her child, but for her husband's lack of involvement, users have gone ballistic on social media. From deploying the cult-favorite Cynthia Erivo memes like side-eye and dramatic eyebrow raises to outright deeming Bongiovi "useless," fans on X went wild, quickly establishing the internet’s verdict.
