Pugh and Braff were first linked in April 2019 and made their relationship Instagram official on Braff's birthday in April 2020. The pair's 20-year age gap caused controversy during their relationship.

Pugh confirmed her split from Braff in the September issue of Harper's Bazaar.

"We've been trying to do this separation without the world knowing, because it's been a relationship that everybody has an opinion on," the actress said.

"We just felt like 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," she added. "So we've done that. I automatically get a lumpy throat when I talk about it."
