Explaining why he hadn\u2019t commented himself, he said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cShe literally sat down, hit record on her phone and said that.

The strangeness of their relationship is more <em>his<\/em> responsibility than hers, isn\u2019t it? And while we agree that Florence is intelligent and articulate, Zach is a writer, actor and director\u2026 we think he could take a shot at articulating his own thoughts. Just seems like a bit of a cop out, in our opinion!<\/p>\n<p>Regardless, on Sunday, the star indicated he was inclined to quit <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/strong> because it\u2019s \u201cf**king toxic,\u201d although it wasn\u2019t clear if it was the result of was continued harassment over his love life or some other source.
