‘Stranger Things’ Star Millie Bobby Brown Reveals She is Deaf in One Ear

Date:

Millie Bobby Brown has revealed that she is deaf in one ear. The Stranger Things star revealed her health issue to Variety, explaining that she was born with partial hearing loss in one ear which slowly faded to deafness after several years.

She does not let it hold her back, saying: “I just started to sing, and if I sound bad I don’t care, because I’m just doing what I love. You don’t have to be good at singing. You don’t have to be good at dancing or acting. If you like to do it, if you genuinely enjoy doing it, then do it. No one should stop you.”

Her Stranger Things character does not talk much but Millie said she made use of her other senses. ‘You can talk with your face,’ she explained. ‘It’s very easy for someone to say, “I’m mad. I’m sad. I’m angry.’ I have to just do it with my face.’

The young actress discussed her love of acting and how she knew at an early age that she wanted to become an actor. Her parents moved from England to Orlando, Florida so she could become an actress.

“It was like a bug,’ she said, ‘I know this sounds crazy, but once I find something I want to do, nobody’s stopping me. If I don’t know how to sew, and I really had that passion to sew, that’s it, I’m going to sew. That’s also with acting. So here I am.”
