It's Jon Bon Jovi's life as a grandfather—it's now or never.
After his son Jake Bongiovi and his wife Millie Bobby Brown announced the arrival of their daughter in August, the “Livin’ on a Prayer” rocker is basking in his “cool” latest role.
“Crazy, but great, wonderful,” Jon—who shares Jake with wife Dorothea Hurley—told Bunnie XO in a Sept. 21 clip from an upcoming episode of her Dumb Blonde podcast. “They adopted a girl, and we met the baby obviously, and immediately it becomes your grandchild, your baby.”
As for the type of grandfather he is? Jon—who also shares kids Stephanie, 32, Jesse, 30, and Romeo, 21, with Dorothea— admitted he can’t get enough of his granddaughter.
“It’s beautiful,” he gushed. “I want to see pictures like every other day. I’m that pain in the butt guy already. It’s cool."
Plus, there will be another pair of tiny feet joining the family soon. As Jon explained, "Our son Jesse and his wife, they’re gonna have a baby. Suddenly it’s a shift again.”
This is the first time the "It's My Life" artist has addressed the arrival of Jake and Millie's bundle of joy since the couple announced they'd privately adopted their daughter.
“We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy,” the Aug. 21 Instagram post read. “And then there were 3.”
And not only is Jon in baby bliss with his granddaughter, the 63-year-old can’t help but sing the praises of Jake and Millie’s relationship, too.
“They got married very young, but we blessed it because we get it,” he added to Bunnie of the Stranger Thing actress and his son’s 2024 marriage. “They’re sort of mature beyond their years. She comes from a family where her parents are still together, and they married very young.”
Jon added, “Her and Jake fell in love, and we thought, ‘Okay, we’ll support this.’ And it’s working out.”
As for the one thing he admires about his famous daughter-in-law? “She’s a sweetheart,” he said. “And she’s a hard worker. I tell her all the time how much I admire her because her work ethic is unbelievable.”
The rocker’s comments come after Millie and Jake—who began their relationship in 2021—recently marked their first wedding anniversary.
“1 year married,” Millie captioned a Sept. 21 Instagram post featuring a throwback photo from her wedding day. “I love being your wife.”
