Oscar nominee Florence Pugh avoids sharing couple snaps with her ‘magical’ boyfriend Zach Braff because she knows it ‘bugs people’ as he’s ‘not who they expected’ her to date.
‘It’s my life and I’m not doing anything to please people or to make it a better headline or story,’ the British 25-year-old told The Sunday Times Style magazine.
‘I want to also be a person!’
Haters gonna hate: Oscar nominee Florence Pugh avoids sharing couple snaps with her ‘magical’ boyfriend Zach Braff because she knows it ‘bugs people’ as he’s ‘not who they expected’ her to date (pictured in January)
At 46, the Scrubs alum is 21 years older than Florence, whom he’s called ‘a gift to the world’ and ‘the most fun person I’ve ever met.’
Braff originally met Pugh in August 2018 when he directed her in his 12-minute Adobe Creative Cloud short film, In the Time It Takes To Get There.
‘It’s so weird to me to go on to someone’s page and s*** on it,’ the Little Women actress said of trolls.
‘That’s so not my nature – to go and bully for the sake of bullying. It’s such an odd thing that we’ve become okay with in the past 10 years of social media.’

Florence continued: ‘The thing is, people want Instagram to be a nicer place, they want to see nice things. They want to be inspired and they want to be happy. I don’t mind you not liking me, that’s absolutely fine. In which case don’t follow me.’
On Zach’s April 6th birthday, Pugh called him ‘a special fella’ and explained what she loves about him.
‘His need to make people laugh and smile is never ending,’ the Cannes Chopard champ gushed.

‘His constant generosity and love for others is infectious, his creativity and ability to put real and honest words onto the page inspires many and all who’s around him, but above all.. his appreciation for life and excitement for LIVING is something I always take note of.’
Florence will next play Avenger Natasha Romanoff’s (Scarlet Johansson) ‘sister-figure’ Yelena Belova in MCU prequel Black Widow, which hits UK theaters this Wednesday and US theaters this Friday.
Cate Shortland’s $200M-budget flick – also starring David Harbour, William Hurt, and Rachel Weisz – already scored an 82% critic approval rating (out of 166 reviews) on Rotten Tomatoes.
