While chatting with The Sunday Times this week, the 19-year-old shared why her engagement ring is so special to her.

As it turns out, the rock wasn't a new purchase. Instead, it had belonged to Brown's mom, Kelly.

"I've always loved that ring; it's always stuck out to me, so she gave it to Jake," Brown said.
