Zach Braff Mourns Nick Cordero, Reveals the Final Text He Received From Him

Zach Braff is mourning the loss of his friend, Broadway actor Nick Cordero, who passed away at the young age of 41 after battling Coronavirus in the hospital for over 90 days.

Nick Cordero passed at 11:40am today with his wife and mother by his side. I have honestly never known a kinder person. But Covid doesn’t care about the purity of your soul, or the goodness in your heart,” Zach wrote on his Instagram.

He continued, “The last thing he ever texted me was to look out for his wife and one year old son, Elvis. I promise the world they will never want for anything. I feel so incredibly grateful I got to have Nick Cordero enter my life. Rest In Peace. Rest in Power,” Zach added.

Our thoughts are with Nick’s loved ones during this difficult time.

We’re mourning the loss of all the celebrities who have passed away from COVID-19. RIP.

Florence Pugh & Zach Braff Have Been Singing During Quarantine

Florence Pugh is opening up about what she and boyfriend Zach Braff are doing while in quarantine and it’s incredibly relatable.

Turns out the Hollywood couple are singing to get through the lockdown.

“We’re in the hills [Hollywood Hills] at the moment and one of our good friends is really ill and in a coma in hospital,” Florence shared during her appearance on Table Manners with Jessie Ware. “And so what we’re doing, because it’s got all of this old hippy history (people play music from the hills that have been written here). We play it during the day, or in the afternoon or in the evening. So that’s kind of our tradition.”

Your own neighborhood might have adopted a “Play on the Porch” initiative, and Florence and Zach have put their own spin on that.

“It’s mainly in the evening and especially on the weekend,” she added. “Every Saturday, they do these isolated gigs on the top of people’s roofs. There will be like a singer singing one song over there and then another singer will be singing one song over there, so it’s really beautiful.”

Florence adds, “You can go out on your front porch and listen to all of the music in the hills. I haven’t seen any famous people giving the concert just yet, but lots of lovely singing.”

If you missed it, Florence recently clapped back at online haters about her relationship with Zach.

Florence Pugh Defends Relationship With Zach Braff: 'People Have No Right to Educate Me on My Private Life'

Florence Pugh is getting candid about dating Zach Braff.

“I have the right to hang out and be with and go out with anyone I want to. I’ve always found this part of what people do really bizarre. I’m an actor because I like acting and I don’t mind people watching my stuff, but people have no right to educate me on my private life,” she said of their relationship.

“I know that part of being in the spotlight is that people might invade your privacy and have opinions on it, but it’s bizarre that normal folk are allowed to display such hate and opinions on a part of my life that I’m not putting out there. It’s a strange side of fame that you’re allowed to be torn apart by thousands of people even though you didn’t put that piece of you out there. My point to all this is that isn’t it odd that a stranger can totally tear apart someone’s relationship and it’s allowed?”

Florence Pugh Claps Back at Online Trolls Who Left Hateful Comments About Her Relationship With Zach Braff

Florence Pugh isn’t having all the hateful comments and cyberbullying and opened up about how she will not tolerate any kind of bullying or hateful comments on her Instagram.

The 24-year-old Black Widow and Little Women star explained that within minutes of posting her birthday tribute to boyfriend Zach Braff earlier in the week, and her page turned into a toxic environment that she would not stand and forced her to turn off the comments.

Florence also opened up about how she is old enough to get to choose who she is with, regardless of age.

“I am 24 years old. I do not need you to tell me who I should and should not love, and never in my life would tell someone [else] who they can and can not love,” Florence says. “It is not your place and really has nothing to do with you.”

She adds, “If that’s not something you can follow, because the abuse you throw at him, is abuse you’re throwing at me, and I don’t want those followers.”

Florence also states that she doesn’t know when cyberbullying became “cool” or “trendy”, but it’s certainly not cool to her and shouldn’t be for you either.
