Florence Pugh admits she was 'unkind to herself' as she opens up about lockdown routine

Florence Pugh admitted she had been 'unkind to herself' as she settled into lockdown with her boyfriend Zach Braff.

The 24-year-old actress, who is currently self-isolating in Los Angeles, has spoken candidly about her lockdown frustrations.

Although Florence appeared initially annoyed at not being as productive as she'd hoped in lockdown, she has since stopped being so hard on herself.

The Black Widow actress is currently holed up with her actor boyfriend Zach, 45, and has instead channelled her energy into making sour dough bread.

Speaking in a recent interview with Elle magazine, the talented performer also mused about walking in London post-lockdown with a canned cocktail in hand.

"I was so surprised by how unkind I am to myself!" Florence told the publication.

"Living in lockdown I found there’s no point or energy in being annoyed at yourself for not reading that book, writing that song or working out that day.

"I’m teaching myself to find joy as much as I can and ease in these open long days."

The Little Women star has revealed that baking sourdough bread has become her lockdown talent and she's even saved some for her mum.

"I’ve become a sourdough bread creator," she told Elle.

"I’ve saved a slice of each loaf in the freezer so my mum can try the progress, from beginning to end when the lockdown eases."

Although the British actress is currently overseas, it hasn't stopped the blonde bombshell from reminiscing about sunny London evenings when the lockdown eventually comes to an end.

She added: "I keep on daydreaming about walking through Soho or East London as the sun's out with an M&S canned cocktail (it’s tradition) in hand and my girlfriends on my arms."

During her in-depth interview, Florence also defended her relationship with Zach after she faced criticism from fans over their 21-year age gap.

Speaking about having a relationship in the spotlight, the Black Widow actress shrugged off the haters.

"I have the right to hang out and be with and go out with anyone I want to," she confidently said during her interview.

"I’ve always found this part of what people do really bizarre."
