During the chat, host Kotb inquired if the legendary Jon Bon Jovi, 61, would perform at their wedding. Brown playfully declined, comparing it to a full-on play. "I feel like that's like asking me to do a full-on play for everyone," she quipped.

She mentioned Bon Jovi's busy schedule with tennis and singing lessons, adding, "I think the man needs a break, he doesn't stop. He's always doing tennis or singing lessons."

Bush Hager chimed in, suggesting, "He can just be the father of the groom!" to which Brown agreed, saying, "That would be wild... I don't know if he'll be able to do just that."

Brown and Bongiovi initially connected on Instagram in 2021, and Brown instantly felt that Jake was "the one." She recalled, "I was interested in him and wanted to know more. As soon as we spoke, I knew he was going to be a huge part of my life."

She continued, "I ran to my mum and said, 'I really, really like him!' After we met we knew we never wanted to leave each other's side."

Brown emphasized the simplicity of knowing he was the right person to spend her life with, adding, "You can't pinpoint why, it's just the feeling of knowing that that's the person you want to spend the rest of your time with. I think so much of life is overthinking. The one thing that made clear sense to me was him. So I didn't really have to do much thinking."
