Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi have made their red carpet debut!

The Stranger Things star, who turned 18 last month, stepped out at the 2022 BAFTA Film Awards at the Royal Albert Hall in London with boyfriend Bongiovi, 19, the son of musician Jon Bon Jovi.

The couple matched in black on Sunday, with Brown donning a black velvet dress featuring black lace detailing, which she paired with a matching set of gloves and silver jewelry.

Bongiovi went with a simple black suit, which he accented with a Ukraine flag pin in a show of support for the country amidst the Russian invasion.

Brown made their relationship Instagram official in Nov. 2021 with a photo of Bongiovi kissing her on the cheek while riding the famous London Eye.

This winter, Brown and Bongiovi celebrated the holidays together for the first time as a couple. The pair snuggled up for a photo in front of a Christmas tree in Dec. 2021, which Brown captioned "Happy holidays ❤."
