Florence Pugh, 28, confirms relationship with Finn Cole

Florence Pugh has confirmed her relationship status after sparking romance rumours with Peaky Blinders star Finn Cole earlier this month. 

The Don’t Worry Darling actress, 28, was seen slipping out of The Perfect Couple premiere as she made a quick getaway with the actor. 

Confirming her loved up status during her October cover shoot with Vogue, she said: ‘I am. OK, so something that I resonate with is that I believe that if magic is real, then it’s falling in love.’

Opening up about her love life she candidly revealed that the couple are ‘figuring it out’ and admitted she is ready to start a family in her

She added: ‘We are figuring what we actually are. And I think for the first time, I’m not allowing myself to go on a roller-coaster. 

‘I’m allowing myself to take time to let something evolve and let it be completely real to its core, as opposed to racing into that.’ 

‘Falling is the most amazing feeling but unfortunately if that’s the only thing that you know in a relationship, then that’s the thing that you chase. That’s not gonna last.’

Promoting her upcoming film, We Live In Time, which also stars Andrew Garfield, Florence revealed she is now ready to focus on love and start a family. 

She explained: ‘I was at the right age for this movie to land. I was going through a lot of weird stuff with relationships last year and I think part of the story is to not be passive, is not to let things wash over you. 

‘I want to go and find love and I want to have babies.’

Prior to Finn, Florence was previously in a relationship with former Scrubs star Zach Braff, 49,  from 2019 until their split in 2022. 

Giving a rare insight into their relationship, the star explained: ‘I had to be public in the past because people were bullying me and bullying my partner. 

‘Mine and Zach’s relationship was actually quite private until it was nasty, and I could see the toll that it was taking on him and us and our families. And that’s when I spoke out. 

‘I think for anyone I’m with, I want to protect them. It’s not nice knowing that people are saying the worst things I’ve ever read about someone that I love. 

‘So that was necessary. I needed to talk about it. I think any relationship in this limelight is going to be stressed.’

At the time of the split, Florence confirmed in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar that the pair had gone their separate ways. 

She told the magazine at the time: ‘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.’

The pair later reunited to work together on A Good Person in 2023, with Zach explaining at the time that the pair still ‘love each other’ despite now only being ‘friends.’

Speaking on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Show, Zach told the host that he and Florence were still in regular contact and she had even chatted with him earlier that morning.

When asked about where he and Florence stood, Zach replied: ‘Well, we love each other. We love each other and we’re friends.’

‘I was on the Today Show this morning, and she said she wanted to see pictures of what my outfit was to give approvals, so we love each other a lot,’ Zach continued.

He made it clear there weren’t any hard feelings between the two when he gushed about the Oscar nominee’s prodigious talents.

‘Listen, I think it’s pretty clear across the world that I’m not biased when I say that she is one of the finest actresses working today,’ he enthused.

‘I think anyone who gives watching A Good Person a chance will see that she’s just extraordinary, and I just feel so lucky that I got to have her be my leading lady.’

Her latest film We Live In Time is set for limited release on October 11 and will hit UK cinemas on January 1st 2025. 

The romantic drama, directed by John Crowley, sees Almut (Florence) and Tobias (Andrew) brought together in a surprise meeting that changes their lives forever.

Through snapshots of their life together – including falling for each other, creating a home and building a family – a difficult truth is uncovered that rocks the relationship’s foundation to the core.

As they embark on a 10-year romance that is challenged by time limits, they learn to treasure every moment of their unconventional love story.
