Millie Bobby Brown, born on February 19, 2004, is known for her portrayal of the character Eleven in a renowned Netflix series Stranger Things. She is also a successful producer with her involvement in the production of Enola Holmes and its sequel Enola Holmes 2.
Having started in the entertainment as a child actress at the mere age of nine, she’s already had her fair share of experience in Hollywood. Her first project was Once Upon a Time in Wonderland where she took upon the role of young Alice.
Her impressive video audition landed her the role without having to go through one-on-one auditions with the producers of the show which is not the norm for such a big project. The producers of the show supposedly made an exception for the uber talented child actress.

Millie Bobby Brown’s Parents
The actress seems to have undying moral support from her parents and siblings alike. It is reported that her parents sold a significant fraction of their posessions so that they could move to Los Angeles, United States of America to hone their daughter’s acting talent and help her get a big break as a professional actress.
Before the life changing move to a completely foreign country, the Browns were living a regular life in the UK. Robert Brown, Millie Bobby Brown’s father, is said to be a real estate agent, while his wife and Millie’s mother, Kelly Brown, was a homemaker. After their big move to the states, Robert had started a dental practice specializing in teeth whitening. Millie had been discouraged in the beginning since she was not getting big roles as she had hoped for.
The family returned to the UK as they ran out of money, but Millie stayed back with her aunt in Florida. She was noticed in a performing arts school by a talent manager. She auditioned for the role of Eleven in Netflix’s Stranger Things over some videos and was selected by the creators of the show, Duffer Brothers.
This proved to be her big break since the very show can be credited to Millie’s present stardom. Her performance in the show got her commercial success as well as the title of a critically acclaimed actress.
Along with being a doting mother, Kelly was also a supportive manager for her daughter briefly. She has supervised and managed Millie on her way through countless auditions all the way to the red carpets. It is said that Kelly still has a say in making arrangements of Millie’s attire before she attends events.
In the year 2016, Millie’s father landed in hot water for supposedly demanding a sum of approximately 100,000 USD from the agents to sign his daughter. Several different talent managing agents have confirmed that Robert had been asking them to pay before associating with his daughter.
While being unconventional in the US, this is apparently a normal thing in the UK specially among sports agents and athletes. Given Robert Brown’s familiarity with several British sports agents, it is speculated that such demand from him was simply a case of culture shock.
