Florence Pugh Confirms That She And Zach Braff Have Broken Up

August 16, 2022 / Posted by:

Well, we’re not going to have the 21-year age gap relationship between Florence Pugh and Zach Braff to kick around any more. In a cover story for Harper’s Bazaar, 26-year-old Florence confirmed that she and 47-year-old Zach called it quits “earlier this year” after nearly four years of yelling at us to shut up about it. With so few age gap relationships in Hollywood to mock, it’s time to retrain our knives on Holland Taylor and that hussy Sarah Paulson. But with caution. Florence only said people shouldn’t be allowed to talk shit about her and Zach, but Sarah said she’d cut a bitch!

Earlier this summer there was speculation that Florence was playing bloodless Midsommar with her 29-year-old co-star Will Poulter when the pair were papped romping in the surf in Ibiza. As is her wont, Florence bristled at the speculation and claimed that she and Will are just friends and busted out her laser pointer to show us all the other people she was also getting all From Here to Eternity with. At that time, folks noticed that Zach and Florence were no longer co-starring on each other’s Instagrams. Well, now we know why. And it wasn’t because Zach died from old age. Harper’s reports:

Florence Pugh has confirmed her split from Zach Braff, to whom she had been romantically linked since 2019, in a new interview for Harper’s BAZAAR‘s September 2022 cover story.

The former couple, who were famously among the more private pairings of Hollywood, decided to quietly end their relationship earlier this year.

“We’ve been trying to do this separation without the world knowing, because it’s been a relationship that everybody has an opinion on,” Pugh tells BAZAAR. “We just felt something like this would really do us the benefit of not having millions of people telling us how happy they are that we’re not together. So we’ve done that. I automatically get a lumpy throat when I talk about it.”

Naturally, Florence took the opportunity to bash nosy people for being all up in her business. Speaking as a professional nosy person, this one stings.

“Whenever I feel like that line has been crossed in my life, whether it’s paparazzi taking private moments, or moments that aren’t even real, or gossip channels that encourage members of the public to share private moments of famous people walking down the street, I think it’s incredibly wrong,” she says. “I don’t think that people, just because they have this job, that every aspect of their life should be watched and written about. We haven’t signed up for a reality TV show.”

Don’t worry, darling. Nobody wanted to watch At Home with Zach and Flo. They would however want to watch At Home With Zach and Donald starring Zach’s Scrubs co-star Donald Faison. As for what’s next for Zach, since he’s no longer anchored to his old lady, who at 26 has sadly passed her prime, he’s now eligible for the next open slot in Leonardo DiCaprio’s Pussy Posse. So if something should happen to Sean Penn in the next few months, I think we will all know who was to blame. Sean, it would be Sean. He just doesn’t seem to take very good care of himself!
