Brown and Kuntz first met while working on the 2001 Disney Channel film, a sequel to 1998’s Halloweentown.
The actress previously told PEOPLE that “there were no romantic discussions, thoughts or feelings at the time,” but Kuntz added, “We were just professional.”

The two remained friends after filming wrapped, keeping in touch primarily through social media, but reconnected in 2016 when Brown contacted his former co-star about a YouTube project he was working on.
They then became engaged in June 2022, and Brown and Kuntz ultimately married in April 2024 in California in front of their closest friends and family.
