"Crazy, but great, wonderful," Bon Jovi described his new life to Bunnie Xo in a clip of the Tuesday episode of her *Dumb Blonde* podcast shared on Monday. "They adopted a girl, and we met the baby obviously, and immediately it becomes your grandchild, your baby."
The "Livin' On a Prayer" singer — who shares sons Jake, Jesse, and Romeo, and daughter Stephanie with wife Dorothea Hurley — admitted that he can't get enough of his granddaughter and is fully leaning into being a nuisance to get regular updates.
"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."
And there'll be another bundle of joy occupying Bon Jovi's time soon! The musician shared that his son Jesse is expecting a child with his wife. "Suddenly it's a shift again," he said.**
Brown and Bongiovi have been keeping a low profile since they announced the adoption of their baby girl in August.
The couple announced their "beautiful next chapter" as parents on social media, signing the reveal with an image of a tree and a sweet message confirming their status as a new family.
"And then there were 3," the statement on Instagram concluded. "Love, Millie and Jake Bongiovi."
Since the reveal, the couple haven't revealed much more of their daughter, although they've been as adoring of one another on their individual pages as usual.

Despite juggling a new baby and their demanding careers, Bon Jovi told Bunnie that Brown and Bongiovi's relationship remains strong.
"They got married very young, but we blessed it because we get it," he said of the pair's seemingly whirlwind romance. "They're sort of mature beyond their years. She comes from a family where her parents are still together, and they married very young."
He added, "Her and Jake fell in love, and we thought, 'Okay, we'll support this.' And it's working out."

In April 2023, the couple teased their engagement with a photo of them embracing, with Brown sporting a ring on her finger. They tied the knot the next year.
A year later, Bon Jovi had nothing but praise for his 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."**
