"I call her bug since the time she came out of the womb," the actress explained. "She was all eyes. There was nothing but eyes when she came out."

"When she graduated from high school she asked me to get a tattoo with her," she added. Rowan described Brooke as "cool and chill" and said that her mom was all in on the idea of getting a tattoo, revealing that she wanted something "meaningful."
