Brooke married Ronnie Holland in 2014, but the two filed for divorce earlier this year. She then told The Jasmine Brand that she regretted something about their marriage.
"I knew I should not have been marrying him, but I was like, 'I'm going to do it for my kids,' which was the wrong decision. I did that and it didn't work out but I knew that when I was getting myself into it that it wasn't the right thing to do and I was in my early 20s then too," she said.
Aside from Kayla Nicole, she has two other children before her wedding to Holland.
