Talking to Deadline in an interview published Nov. 2, Millie said their relationship is unlike the "schoolmate"-like connection she shares with Stranger Things co-stars Noah Schnapp and Charlie Heaton.

"With Henry, it feels like a real adult relationship. Like a really healthy one," Millie said, "One that we have terms and conditions. I know Henry. He has terms and conditions with me."

And just what do these terms and conditions entail? For starters, the she noted, "I'm not allowed to ask about his personal life."

"It's like, 'Millie, shut up. No.' And I'm like 'Understood.' Whereas with the Stranger Things kids, it's different," she continued. "There's no boundaries because it's like we're all siblings. But with Henry, he's very strict with me, which I appreciate."

"So, for him, it must be completely different. I have a sister, a brother, and an older brother. So, I'm very much used to that kind of dynamic," Millie said. "I had to implement a lot of that into my relationship with Henry offscreen and onscreen and just pull him out of his comfort zone."
