Florence Pugh and ex Zach Braff showed a unified front at the premiere of "A Good Person" Wednesday.

Pugh, 27, is a producer and stars as the lead Allison in the Braff-written and directed film about a young woman whose life is turned upside down after being in a fatal accident that kills two members of her fiancé’s family. The film is loosely inspired by Amanda Kloots's grieving process after her husband Nick Cordero was diagnosed with COVID-19 and died from complications in 2020.

Pugh and Braff's red carpet appearance was the first time the now-exes have done a public appearance together.

Despite their split in 2022, the couple was all smiles on the red carpet. Braff, 47, loosely kept his arm overlapping Pugh while they posed together.

The former pair ended their relationship early last year — but they kept it quiet because of the barrage of media attention, the actress revealed in a new interview.

"We’ve been trying to do this separation without the world knowing, because it’s been a relationship that everybody has an opinion on," Pugh told Harper's Bazaar in a cover story published in December. "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."

She also slammed the paparazzi and "gossip channels" for encouraging the public to share "private moments of famous people walking down the street."

"I think it’s incredibly wrong," she said, adding that just because people are in the public eye, doesn't mean "every aspect of their life should be watched and written about."

"We haven't signed up for a reality TV show," she said.

'Don't Worry Darling' survives drama, harsh reviews, tops box office with $19.2M

The pair had been linked with each other since 2019. While the couple never went red carpet official, Pugh has fiercely defended their romance amid a 20-year age gap.

The "Don't Worry Darling" actress touched on the nuance of age-gap relationships in Hollywood in a Vogue cover story, published in January.

"We weren’t in anyone’s faces. It was just that people didn’t like it," she said. "They imagined me with someone younger and someone in blockbusters."

Pugh added: "I think young relationships in Hollywood are so easily twisted because they add to the gossip sites. It’s exciting to watch. And I think I was in a relationship that didn’t do any of that."
