Millie Bobby Brown addresses public scrutiny 'I refuse to apologise for growing up… I will not be shamed for how I look, how I dress, or how I present myself.' She blasted those joining in on the jibes, adding: 'You're amplifying an insult instead of questioning why a grown man is mocking a young woman's appearance.'

Singer Pixie Lott added: 'You are a true class act… always beyond beautiful inside and out.'

Millie has grown up in front of the cameras since landing her breakout role as Eleven on Stranger Things aged just 10.

She secretly married model Jake Bongiovi, 22 – son of rocker Jon Bon Jovi – last year in a low-key ceremony in the US. The pair began dating in 2021, and Jake proposed during a scuba diving trip by hiding the ring inside a shell. Jon Bon Jovi gave the couple his blessing, saying: 'They're going to be great together.' Millie has even expressed interest in playing Britney Spears in a future biopic, saying: 'Her story resonates with me, growing up in the public eye.' 8 Millie in 2016, as Eleven in season one of Stranger Things Credit: Netflix 8 In an Instagram post, Millie fumed that she was: 'Disillusioned people can't handle seeing a girl become a woman on her terms, not theirs' Credit: Instagram 8 The star with husband Jake Bongiovi, who is the son of singer Jon Bon Jovi Credit: Splash 8 The star on the red carpet for the Enola Holmes 2 premiere in 2022 Credit: Getty

Coronation Street's Carl Webster actor has famous TV star wife
Coronation Street viewers were recently introduced to the newest member of the Webster clan, when younger brother Carl (Jonathan Howard) turned up in Weatherfield to surprise his siblings. He has since caused chaos for Abi Webster (Sally Carman) with his incessant flirting, unbothered by the fact that she is married to his brother, Kevin (Michael Le Vell). Away from the cobbles, actor Jonathan Howard is happily married – to none other than Tv and Film star Elodie Yung. Jonathan himself is no stranger to the big screen, having appeared in Thor: The Dark World, World War Z and Godzilla: King of the Monsters. French-Cambodian actress Elodie got her big break in French TV drama La Vie Devant Nous, before going back to law school. However, at age 29 she moved to London to study acting. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Her first Hollywood role came in the form of hit movie The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and she has since starred in some major TV series, such as Marvel's Daredevil and The Cleaning Lady. Her Daredevil character Elektra was skilled in martial arts – something that Elodie herself has a talent for, having achieved a black belt in Karate. Jonathan revealed that he and Elodie moved from LA to another state for her work, and that they enjoy living there together. 'My wife has been working on a TV show for the last few years in another state in America and we've been based there for the last couple of years. We enjoy our life there. 'My wife is French Cambodian and we never thought we'd be living in the States, but we like it out there. That's our life right now.' He recently spoke about moving back to the UK to take on the role of Carl, after living in America with Elodie and their daughter. 'I left the north of England 20 years ago, when I was 20. I went to do Dream Team in London then I went to drama school for three years. 'I left drama school and managed to work in America and moved to America and I've been in the States for the last 10 years with my wife and I have a daughter over there. 'The only hard thing is being away from them, but at the same time it's a real gift to be back in the north of England.' He went on to reveal that Carl wasn't the first Coronation Street role he'd auditioned for, explaining that he'd been in to read for Gary Windass prior to going to drama school. If he'd got the role, his whole life would have been completely different, he revealed. 'I was in the process of auditioning for drama school at the same time as I had a screen test for a new family, and that was the Windass family. Gary Windass was the character I was auditioning for. Obviously I didn't get it, I lost out to a great actor and he's done amazing things with that character. More Trending 'But in that moment, if I'd been offered Corrie I would have taken it and I wouldn't have taken my place at LAMDA, at drama school, and I wouldn't have done that training. 'So it was very disappointing at the time because, as a northern actor, Corrie is the main staple of an actor's diet. But to not get it meant that I went to drama school. You have to trust the universe and trust that things happen and it's all for the right reason.

I wouldn't have met my wife if I hadn't have gone to drama school, so it worked out for the best.'
