She captioned her video "Fridays with Friends, 20 Questions episode!"
The 53-year-old reality television star had a public candid conversation with her friend Jenn Sullivan, who asked Brown several personal questions.
Her last question was, "One question you wish people knew or understood about you."
"I've got people really wondering what I may or may not want to say. I'm just going to do it. I am… straight," Brown announced to her fans.
"I made an announcement. Now that you all know. You heard it from my mouth. I'm coming out as being straight."

Before Brown’s answer, she contemplated whether to publicly address the rumors of her sexual orientation.
She debunked rumors after revealing that fans consistently criticize her regardless of her decision to post a photo with a male or female.
"It does not matter who I take a picture with and post it," Brown pointed out.

"I'm either dating this guy or dating this girl because people can't seem to think I can be friends, completely platonic friends, with females or males."
Brown continued to agree with a fan’s comment during her Instagram Live.
"I know right …? You just never know what to believe. Do you believe those tabloids or not?"
