The Bon Jovi frontman said since the adoption of his grandchild, he has been asking for constant updates.
”It’s beautiful. I want to see pictures, like, every other day,” he added.

He also addressed the couple getting married and starting a family so young – Jake was 22 and Stranger Things actress Brown was 20 when they wed last year.
Bon Jovi said he and wife Dorothea Hurley supported the union.
“They got married really young, but we blessed it because we get it, you know?” he said.
“They’re sorta mature beyond their years. She comes from a family where her parents are still together and they married very young.”
“Her and Jake fell in love and we just thought, ‘OK, we’ll support this,'” he recalled.
“And it’s working out.”
He also gushed about his daughter-in-law’s work ethic.
“She’s a sweetheart and she’s a hard worker, I tell her all the time how much I admire her, because her work ethic is unbelievable,” he said.
The young couple married in September last year after a three-year relationship.
Just a few weeks before their wedding anniversary, Bongiovi and Brown revealed they had adopted a baby girl in a joint Instagram post.
“This summer we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption,” the post read.
