Some fans tweeted that Brown seems too young to be engaged, while others defended her engagement.
One person joked on Twitter, “She’s 19 and engaged, and I’m 18 and doing ‘what celebrity am I?’ quizzes when I’m supposed to be doing my assignment.”
Similarly, one fan said, “She’s 19. You do you sis but I was a mess at 19. Getting married would have been at the bottom of my list at that point.”
“Everyone saying ‘she’s 19’ and not his age, so I got scared. But he’s 20 (whew). So it’s chill. Let the crazy kids be in love,” someone else tweeted in defense of the Stranger Things star’s engagement.
One person joked that they thought Brown was 11 because of her character Eleven.
Another person pointed out that many people had no problem “bullying” Brown as a child on the internet.
“‘She’s 19,’ and she wants to get married so? why do you care? she can marry whoever and whenever she wants, that decision doesn’t involve you. I’m happy for them!” another fan said, with several sweet photos of the couple attached.
One person was completely out of the loop, tweeting, “Idk what’s more shocking, the fact that she’s engaged or the fact that I’m just now finding out she’s 19.”
“Honestly, seeing why She’s 19 is actually trending is a relief. I clicked on it expecting to see that Leo DiCaprio has a new girlfriend or something,” someone else quipped.
