It turns brown because of a chemical in the bleach, most likely chlorine(Cl) or ammonia. when the water mixes with the certain chemical, it causes a chemical reaction that changes the color; in your case brown. hope this helped :)

Bleach is a very strong chemical and is usually a percentage of water and sodium hypochlorite, and is very corrosive, it either chemically reacted with the lining of the tub and removed some material from it, or reacted with what was in the water, if it was soapy water or just dirty. In either case it should be drained quickly as it could be producing toxic fumes if reacting with certain compounds.

Try putting bleach in the spray bottle without water and see if it still turns brown.

It probably will, it's from the bleach eroding the spring and tube mechanism in the spray bottle.
