In the image, Brown and her husband, model Jake Bongiovi, 22, are snuggled together as they gaze tenderly at their baby girl. The family of three appeared to be enjoying the It's a Small World ride at a Disney Park.

Though the baby's face was blurred, her tiny hand could still be seen. "My t swift october 🍁," Brown captioned the post. The pair first announced their daughter's arrival via adoption back in August.

"This summer we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption. We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy," the couple wrote in a joint statement on Instagram. "And then there were 3."

Not long after the announcement, a source told People that becoming a mom young was always part of Brown's plan. "She's so young, but so focused. And she has the biggest heart. There's no doubt that she's a great mom," the source said.

"Pretty much everything she sets her mind to, she crushes. And they have really worked on creating this special family life in Georgia. She loves her farm — it's going to be such a special place for the baby to grow up," the insider continued.

Brown has often shared glimpses of her peaceful life on the farm through Instagram carousels. The insider added, "Even before they were married, she often spoke about her wish to be a young mom. And Jake was always on the same page. They're in it together."

The "Enola Holmes" actress has been open about her wish to start a family early. During her appearance on the "SmartLess" podcast in July, she reflected on her desire for motherhood, saying it's something she's dreamed about since childhood.

"My mom actually had her first child at 21, and my dad was 19. And you know, it's been my thing since before I met Jake," she explained to hosts Will Arnett, Sean Hayes, and Jason Bateman.

And while she wanted to focus on establishing herself further as an actor and producer, she also wanted to prioritize building a family. "It's a huge thing. Jake was like, we cannot do that until we get married," she added.

"So that was his thing, and my thing was, I really want a family. I really want a big family," she said. Brown, who married Bongiovi in May 2024, also shared she saw no difference between having a biological child and adopting.

"My home is full of love for anyone and anything, and so that is what we kind of stand by — Jake and I — our energy in the house is 'the door is always open,' and we want everyone to feel really comfortable," she said.
