“We’ve been trying to do this separation without the world knowing, because it’s been a relationship that everybody has an opinion on,” said Pugh. “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,” she added.
In April 2022, Pughcelebrated Braff’s birthday, captioning a series of photos on Instagram, “Happy Birthday Zachary.”
Prior to that, Braff celebrated Pugh’s 26th birthday with asocial media tribute.
“Happy birthday to this beautiful human being. I am so lucky to know you. And the world is so lucky they get to witness your incredible talent,” Braff wrote on his Instagram Story at the time, alongside a photo of Pugh resting at the edge of a swimming pool.
