Tightly closeted daughter of rock legend Jon Bon Jovi, Stephanie Rose Bongiovi has stayed out of the public eye. But she occasionally makes news for big life happenings. In recent news she was outed as engaged and her father penned a wedding hit Kiss the Bride. She has been seen at big family gatherings as well. Stephanie may be low profile but she is molding her own journey.
Recent Public Appearances
Stephanie Rose Bongiovi joined her father, Jon Bon Jovi in February 2024 attending MusiCares Person of the Year Gala in the Los Angeles Convention Center where she received an award in honor of her father’s contributions to music and philanthropy. Melissa Etheridge, Shania Twain and Jason Isbell performed at the event. Stephanie was there to show to her father how much support he had, and how close the family she has been to.
Engagement Announcement
Jon Bon Jovi told Us Weekly in early 2024 that one of his two daughters was engaged, Stephanie Rose Bongiovi. Stephanie, a private person who has kept quiet about whom she is engaged to, revealed to her father that she would be joining the family in a wedding soon; he responded by writing a special song you would expect called ‘Kiss the Bride’.
The Story Behind ‘Kiss the Bride’
As Jon Bon Jovi waits patiently for his daughter Stephanie’s wedding, he has penned a beautiful song with words to ‘Kiss the Bride’. “If this track becomes the wedding song of the next 100 years, I will feel very proud,” he said. Stephanie Rose Bongiovi hadn’t heard the song yet in February 2024 when her special day rolled around, thus, making for another surprise.
Father-Daughter Relation
Deep emotions were running through Jon Bon Jovi’s veins, as his daughter Stephanie Rose Bongiovi had her wedding coming. He reflected on his close bond with her and how he wrote her 2000 song ‘I Got The Girl’ when she was 5, remembering the lyric ‘the Queen of Hearts, will always be a 5 year old princess to me.’ He writes ‘Kiss the Bride’ now, as she prepares to get married at 31, but he had to admit to being moved to tears both writing and singing it. ‘Degenerate’ supports that walking his only daughter down the aisle will be more emotional than his sons’ weddings, such as ‘Steph was the first baby and the band’s first baby,’ he said.
Stephanie’s Reaction to ‘Kiss the Bride’
Even though Jon Bon Jovi is thrilled about writing Kiss the Bride for his daughter Stephanie’s wedding, he’s not sure if she’s too since she’s not responding to him. Early June 2024, he revealed to his fans that after sending her the song, he had never heard back, jokingly implored, ‘Steph, call your daddy.’ The sentimentality behind the song is also really deep actually — for him but the fans are really curious about her silence. Despite this, some believe she may be keeping her reaction to herself, and others believe she may be waiting for the right time to reply. Jon, however, is optimistic that the track will become a part of her big day that is much loved.

Specifics on what Stephanie did in regards to the marriage of her brother Jake Bongiovi to ‘Stranger Things’ star Millie Bobby Brown are private, but the way the Bongiovios have increased their circle with the new recruits speaks to the tightly knitted family.
