“Oh, it’s like, such an honor. It’s crazy because we’ve grown up together and we’d talk. When we were little kids, she was like, ‘When I have a kid, you’re definitely going to be the godfather to my kid,’ ” he recalled. “Then we grew up, she had a kid, and like, now I am.”

During the red carpet premiere of the last season of Stranger Things, the actress, 21, spoke with Entertainment Tonight and revealed that her costar and real-life best friend Schnapp is actually her baby daughter’s godfather.

“Sadie is very, very maternal but Noah’s her godfather,” Brown said of Sadie Sink and Schnapp. “They all turn into the most gooey, soft versions of themselves [and] their baby voice comes out when they’re around her.”

Schnapp also spoke with the outlet and shared just how excited he is to see his friend step into this new era.

“Aw, it’s honestly the greatest joy,” he said. “It’s actually crazy to me to see her grow from such a wide-eyed, innocent young, silly girl, and now she’s a mom and married. And I’m just so proud of her.”

The new mom is keeping her baby girl out of the spotlight, but she’s never too far away from her at any given moment. Recently, her daughter crashed her recent Stranger Things interview with Schnapp.

While doing the kitten interview with BuzzFeed, the actress’ baby girl can be heard crying in the background.

“That’s my child,” Brown said, petting one of the kittens alongside her and Schnapp. “That’s my kitten.”
