In the December 2025 issue of British Vogue, 21-year-old Millie Bobby Brown, now a new mother, opens up to journalist Zing Tsjeng about closing her chapter on Stranger Things, facing down online critics, and embracing a peaceful family life on her farm.
Atlanta, Georgia, a city sprawling with highways and massive stores, might seem an unlikely place for a global star to settle. Yet it’s here that Brown — known as Netflix’s breakout sensation and a young business mogul — has chosen to root her life.
She enters a local coffee shop with an apologetic smile, two decades of ambitious work behind her and dance rehearsals just completed at a vast nearby studio where Stranger Things was filmed for nearly ten years.
“I’m so sorry,” Brown says, brushing off the delay. “I was caught up in rehearsals at the studio.”
She hints at something new on the horizon.
“I have something in the pipeline that I’m really excited about, which I’ve never done before – that’ll be next year!”
Dressed in a sports bra, black shorts, and a ponytail, she exudes the calm confidence of any young woman after a workout. Yet, a small detail sets her apart — when she reaches for a bottle of water, a faint tattoo on her wrist comes into view: the number 011, a tribute to her iconic role.
Millie Bobby Brown speaks candidly about her transition from Stranger Things to motherhood, revealing a joyful new life grounded in creativity and simplicity.
