Florence Pugh, 25, gushes about ‘magical’ beau Zach Braff, 46, in sweet birthday tribute

Florence Pugh posted a gushing message for boyfriend Zach Braff on Tuesday.

The actor just turned 46, and commemorating the day, Florence, 25, shared a few photos of her ‘magical’ beau on Instagram.

The British actress shared a couple of photos of the actor cuddling their rescue dog Billie as well as another of him wearing a fleecy two-piece and mismatched shoes. 

‘It’s this magical persons birthday. A year ago we got Billie three days before Zach’s day and she’s flopped on her back for tummy tickles from him like this ever since. A special day for a special fella requires special foot wear and fluffy trackies.. obvi.’ she wrote in the caption.

‘His need to make people laugh and smile is never ending, 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.’ she continued.

‘Happy Birthday chicken, odd shoes is a good look @zachbraff.’ the Little Women star concluded her note.

Florence has been dating the Scrubs star for over two years after he cast her in his short film In The Time It Takes to Get There. 

Meanwhile, it’s been revealed that Florence and Black Widow costar Scarlett Johansson were battling pneumonia while the filmed the Marvel movie. 

The movie’s director Cate Shortland has likened shooting the Marvel film to ‘being in the army’ and revealed its two lead stars were both ill whilst they were making it but they pushed through.

Speaking to The Gentlewoman, Cate explained: ‘It was like being in the army. By the end, Scarlett and her co-star Florence Pugh were both shooting while ill with pneumonia.’

Meanwhile, Florence recently revealed her and Scarlett have a ‘sisterly bond’.

The two actresses star together in the upcoming Marvel movie – where they play Yelena Belova and Natasha Romanoff, two iterations of the titular superhero – and Florence has revealed the pair built up a close bond on set by ‘taking the p***’ out of each other as though they were siblings.

Florence said: ‘I think maybe the tiredness did add to my not being so self-aware and just, I suppose, allowing myself to start taking the p*** out of Scarlett from Day 1, which was great. From that point onward, we kind of did it to each other. It was instant sisterly bonding.’
