The British actress took to the image-sharing platform to post a heartwarming shot of the former Scrubs star snuggling his pet pooch as he relaxed on an outdoor chair – while she added a personal touch by donning socks bearing his face.

Donning spectacles and a green top, Zach was shown lying on a foliage-covered deck as his face rested against his puppy, who slept atop a slate grey blanket.
Captioning the image, Oxford native Florence wrote: ‘Today we shall smile wider than the clouds are grey. April 6th and we’re celebrating hard! Happy Birthday wishes, boogies and cheers for this special person. Raise those bubbles and jiggle!’
Showing how dedicated she was to marking the day in style, the actress lifted her leg to show off her pink socks in a snap shared on Zach’s Instagram Stories.

Zach also uploaded an image of himself and his adorable dog as he wrote: ‘All I wanted for my birthday was overalls and a puppy.’
Two days earlier, the couple – who have been isolating together amid the COVID-19 crisis – were seen stocking up on goods together at a Los Angeles supermarket.
Florence has been keeping herself busy while in quarantine during the ongoing pandemic by documenting her cooking sessions.
The actress shared a number of recipes to her Instagram and putting them onto her highlights section, delighting fans with her culinary exploits.

Showing off her culinary skills with dishes such as a butternut squash soup, and a marmalade sandwich for dessert, Florence was sure to delight and amaze.
Of how she decides what to make, she said: ‘Lots of my recipes are all to do with – well, they’re not my recipes, I’ve copied them off someone, pretended they’re mine.
‘I’m always trying to use as much of the stuff I have in my fridge as possible. Or I’m trying to reuse an old vegetable.
‘Or make sure that it gets the longest life possible. I think it’s really important to use all the things that were originally going to be wasted.’
Special: He also posted a selfie of himself and his dog, adding the caption, ‘It’s my special day’
Florence shared a number of recipes and also showed off an Italian sausage and a tomato sauce pasta dish for her 1.3million followers.
Enjoying herself during the cooking session Florence talked with a wine in hand, and dressed to impress with a series of chic ensembles.
During one of her videos from the kitchen, the Little Women star also wore a stylish apron that had a honey-bee pattern across the front.
Back in December, Florence hit back at criticism of the 20-year age gap she has between her and boyfriend Zach Braff.

The actress met the actor when they worked on the short film In the Time It Takes to Get There together and they were first spotted out together in April.
After Zach commented with a princess emoji on one of Florence’s Instagram pictures, one person wrote: ‘You’re 44 years old.’
Florence was not impressed with the person trying to shade their relationship and she wrote back ‘And yet he got it’.
This marked the first time Florence or Zach had publicly acknowledged their romantic relationship.
