Cassius Brown Served as Ring Bearer at His Parents' Wedding

Cassius' parents were friends for a long time before they only got into a relationship. In 2008, Bobby asked Etheredge to manage him as she had experience working with other big names such as Magic Johnson and Macy Gray. The couple had baby Cassius a year after, and during that pregnancy, it was discovered that she had diabetes.

When Cassius was born, his parents were not yet married. Bobby later asked Etheredge to marry him a year after the birth in 2010. The proposal was a special one for many, as the artist did it while performing at the Funk Fest in Jacksonville, Florida.

With Cassius in her arms, Etheredge entered the stage during the show and found Bobby on one knee with a ring in his hand. It was a magical moment for the people involved, even the crowd, who roared their approval. The ecstatic Etheridge kissed her man as he remained kneeling.

Nevertheless, it took another two years before they walked down the aisle. Less than a day after finishing the New Edition concert in Honolulu, the couple remained there and had their wedding on a Monday in June 2012, surrounded by the beautiful beaches of Hawaii. Family and friends were also present, and Cassius was the ring bearer.

After Cassius, Bobby and Etheredge had two other children, daughters Hendrix and Bodhi Brown. Cassius' younger siblings were born in 2015 and 2016, respectively. Their mother often posts photos of them. Cassius also has four older siblings from his father's past relationships, including the late Bobbi Kristina Brown.
