Millie Bobby Brown has revealed that she still uses her parents’ Netflix account.
The Stranger Things actress is one of the streamer’s biggest stars, having starred in the hit sci-fi series alongside the likes of Enola Holmes and Damsel.
Speaking to Capital FM earlier this year, however, Brown admitted that she still makes use of her parents’ account to watch content.
“I’m still using my parents’ account,” she said. “I kind of refuse to pay for the subscription because my parents pay, and I’m still a child, in my eyes, and in their eyes. So yeah, I’m part of the family deal.”
This isn’t the only time Brown has opened up about her conscious spending habits, the star telling Call Her Daddy earlier this year: “When I do spend money on something, I have to call my parents, I have to think about it. I go back, I don’t just buy it right away.”
Comparing her approach to money to that of husband Jake Bongiovi, the star further shared: “I’ll be like ‘Oh, I need socks,’ and he’ll be like ‘Let’s go to Prada’. And I’m like ‘Let’s go to Target.’
“He’s just that kinda guy. He loves to go shopping. He will refuse to pack a suitcase because he likes to go shopping in the place we’re going, that’s what he does. Whereas I’m like, ‘Amazon Basics’. I love that.”
Stranger Things is currently in the middle of its fifth and final season, the final two parts of which are due to premiere over the festive period.
Meanwhile, Brown has insisted that she has a “great relationship” with co-star David Harbour, despite reports she had filed a claim of “harassment and bullying” against the actor, who faced an internal inquiry, though there were no claims of sexual impropriety.
“Of course I felt safe [with Harbour],” she told Deadline last month. “We’ve worked together for 10 years. I feel safe with everyone on that set. You naturally just… you’ve been doing it for so long.”
Brown added: “We also play father and daughter, so naturally you have a closer bond than [with] the rest. Because we have had some really intense scenes together, especially in season two. But David and I have a great relationship.”
Show co-creator Ross Duffer has also commented on the reports, saying he “can’t get into personal on-set matters”, though added that “nothing matters more than just having a set where everyone feels safe and happy”, while executive producer Shawn Levy said the reports “range from wildly inaccurate to … there’s so much noise around it”.
