"What’s up with Millie Bobby Brown’s accent?”— is a question that has been making the rounds all over social media in recent years. Starting her career as a child actor, Brown left her hometown in England to chase her dreams in Hollywood. As Eleven in Stranger Things, she has spent nearly a decade playing an American teen. Naturally, over time, her accent has shifted a little to American. Lately, though, it seems like her fans are noticing it more than ever. There were countless comments on her speech when she was promoting Damsel last year.

Fed up with the constant questions, Brown finally clapped back at the hype surrounding her accent switching between British and American.

In an interview with TikToker Max Balegde last year, Millie Bobby Brown responded to the fan frenzy about her accents with good humor. “I’m an actor. I grew up in the public eye. I grew up in America,” the Enola Holmes actress said. She explained that, as an actor, it is natural for her to "adapt" and "mimic" the people around her—especially when she is around Americans, like her husband Jake Bongiovi.

“I don’t do it intentionally," Brown said, although she has been on record about how she mastered American accent. She then went on to repeat multiple times, with a slightly raised voice— “I am trying my best!” Defending Brown, Balegde told viewers, “She’s Millie Bobby Brown and she could speak how she wants.” This clarification came after she faced backlash for sounding like a rich valley girl during an interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

After the episode aired, fans flooded social media with their thoughts on Millie Bobby Brown’s fluctuating accents.

Last year, Millie Bobby Brown appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Along with her dog stealing the show, many fans also could not help but notice how comfortable Brown had become with her American accent. Throughout the interview, Brown spoke mostly in an American accent, though a few British nuances still came through. At one point, she effortlessly slipped back into her British roots by doing an impression of her mother.

In the comments section across various platforms, fans expressed their surprise at how natural her American accent sounded. Some even argued that she intentionally dropped her British accent, suggesting that the actress is currently filming the final season of Stranger Things, which could explain why her American accent feels so prominent. Whatever the case, as she put it, Millie Bobby Brown is trying her best!
