“She’s just magnetic. Youcannot take your eyes off of her,” Braff added at the time. “And it’s not just her beauty and it’s not just her acting ability, it’s that thing, that magic thing that transcends the screen, where anyone and everyone goes: I want to see whatever this person does.”
Braff and Pugh dated after connecting on social media and were first spotted showing PDA during a trip to New York City in April 2019. The two kept their relationship relatively private until their split, which the British actress revealed in a story forHarper’s BAZAAR’s September 2022 issue.
“We’ve beentrying to do this separationwithout the world knowing, because it’s been a relationship that everybody has an opinion on,” she said at the time. “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,” Pugh added.
