Jake bears a strong resemblance to his famous father, particularly in his youth.
Jon Bon Jovi and his wife, Dorothea Hurley, have four children together. Dorothea was Jon’s high school sweetheart, and they got married in 1989. Jake is the youngest of their four children. His siblings are Stephanie Rose (29), Jesse (28), and Romeo (19).Jake Bongiovi made headlines as a high school activist when he organized a school walkout to demand action against school shootings, declaring, “Enough is enough. We’ve seen it far too many times,” when he was just 15 years old.
He attended Poly Prep Country Day School and later enrolled at Syracuse University. There’s an Instagram photo of Jake in Syracuse attire with his delighted parents, and it appears that his rockstar dad assisted him with his move-in. However, Jake didn’t return for his sophomore year at the institution.
While Jake may look like his famous father, he has different career aspirations. He aims to become an actor, although he has yet to make his acting debut. He has two projects in the works: he was cast in the HBO Max film “Sweethearts,” which was set to conclude filming in August 2022. Additionally, he secured a role in the comedy “Rockbottom,” described as a film about a hair metal band. In “Rockbottom,” Jake will portray Justin, the “potential new lead singer” who “must overcome stage fright to lead the band back to glory,” according to Variety.
