Despite this, in October 2019, Brown was spotted holding hands with Liam Hemsworth in New York.

When speaking to Harpers Bazaar Australia in 2020 about how women are perceived in Hollywood, Brown stated, "Women still definitely have to be ten times nicer and work ten times harder to be given the same opportunities as men in Hollywood. And you often hear about women being labelled as divas or difficult to work with, but you hear that far less about the men. That's because we, as a society, are more ready to label women as difficult."
