Jon Bon Jovi is finally opening up about becoming a grandfather for the first time!
On Aug. 21, Bon Jovi’s son Jake Bongiovi and his wife, Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown, revealed they recently welcomed a baby girl through adoption.
“This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption,” the couple wrote via Instagram at the time. “We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy.”
The legendary rocker did not publicly comment on the couple’s news until Sunday, Sept. 21, when Jelly Roll‘s wife, influencer and podcaster Bunnie XO, shared a clip from their interview on TikTok.
“It’s crazy, but great. Wonderful,” Bon Jovi said of life as a grandfather. “They adopted a girl, we met the baby obviously and immediately that becomes your grandchild, you know what I mean? Your baby. It’s beautiful. I want to see pictures, like, every other day. I’m that pain in the butt guy already and, yeah, it’s cool.”

Bon Jovi also talked about his son becoming a father at the age of 23.
“They got married very young but we blessed it because we get it — you know, they’re sorta mature beyond their years,” he said. “She comes from a family where her parents are still together and they married very young. Her and Jake fell in love and we just thought OK, we’ll support this and it’s working out.”
Bon Jovi, 63, and his wife Dorothea Hurley, 62, have been married since April 1989 and share Jake as well as daughter Stephanie, 32, and sons Jesse, 30, and Romeo, 21.
Bon Jovi’s full interview with Bunnie XO releases Monday, Sept. 22.
