Pugh announced she and Braff split up after three years together last year, in an August interview with Harper's Bazaar, where she said they went their separate ways earlier that year.
The pair worked to keep their relationship out of the public eye, with Florence saying they wanted to break up in private.
She said: 'We've been trying to do this separation without the world knowing, because it's been a relationship that everybody has an opinion on.'

'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.'
Florence did not reveal when exactly she and Zach broke up, but they were still together in April when she wished him a happy 47th birthday on Instagram.
The 21-year age gap between the pair drew attention during their three-year courtship.
In 2021, Florence spoke to The Sunday Times about the cruel comments she received from trolls after wishing Zach a happy 46th birthday.
