Ouch, ouch! Actress Florence Pugh has criticized the intrusive methods used by the paparazzi, especially when it comes to reporting on her romantic life. In a recent interview, the future Don’t Worry Darling star discussed her breakup with Scrubs actor Zach Braff and blasted the brutal tactics some photographers used to capture their affair.
“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 encouraging members of the public to share private moments of famous people walking down the street, I think it’s incredibly wrong,” she said in a cover story for Harper’s Bazaar published on Tuesday.
I disagree with the idea of documenting and scrutinizing someone’s entire life simply because they work in this industry. We are not contestants on a reality television show.
Pugh said that the ex-couple divorced at the beginning of the year. “We’ve been attempting to accomplish this separation without the rest of the world knowing since Braff, 47, is 21 years older than the 26-year-old,” Pugh stated. “We simply imagined that by acting similarly, millions of people would not show their delight at our departure. That’s precisely what we did. Just thinking about it makes my throat hurt.”
Though their connection is finished, Braff and Pugh still have an intriguing professional project in the works: A Good Person, a film that Braff wrote about a young lady fighting to overcome a recent tragedy that will be released next year. “The film that we did together was honestly one of my most favorite experiences,” Pugh said of the project. “It seemed completely natural and effortless.”
The former couple, who were regarded as one of Hollywood’s more discrete couples, quietly decided to split up earlier this year. Pugh tells BAZAAR that they have been attempting to separate covertly because everyone has an opinion on their relationship. “We simply thought that by acting in a similar manner, millions of people wouldn’t express their joy at our separation. That’s what we did, then. Talking about it makes my throat hurt right away.”
Pugh critiques the public’s obsession with the private lives of celebrities. “I think it’s incredibly wrong whenever I feel like that line has been crossed in my life,” she says. “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 disagree that people should have every element of their lives documented and observed simply because they work in this field. We are not participants in a reality TV program.”
