As comments poured in on social media, it was made clear that many users were unable to reconcile the current version of Coupe with the one they had grown accustomed to from when Scrubs ended in 2010.
Her seemingly skinnier physique sparked speculation among netizens, with many theorizing that the changes were the result of years of substance abuse.

“Wow, I can’t believe how much she’s changed in 15 years. She looks like an add*ct,” one user said. “She’s using d***s. She looks messed up,” another replied.
One commenter, claiming to be a health professional, weighed in, “I work in healthcare, and I’m always shocked when I see the ages of people who have abused their bodies. I often guess they are 20 years older than they are.”

“What a tragic waste. She has the face and body of someone who has made bad decisions throughout her life,” another lamented.
“The weirdest thing is by the way she’s posing; she’s actually proud of the way she looks. Obviously, she’s not in reality; we’re all seeing something different.”

Contrary to what viewer speculation might suggest, Coupe, who rose to fame during her time on Scrubs and later became known for her role in the comedy series Happy Endings, has embraced a more spiritual path in recent years.
On February 20, she promoted the upcoming release of her self-help book Coyote Woman and the Odyssey of Soul Contracts, where she delved into topics of consciousness and self-discovery.

The book, she said, also serves as an attempt to “move on” from her life as an actress.
“I’ve been an actor. That has been my identity for so long. And what I have learned in my journey through this human experience…is that there is no such thing as ‘identity,’” she explained in a post.

“I wrote a book because I am also a writer. Another thing I enjoy and am good at is that I have a lot to say.”
Between Coyote Woman and The Residence, the actress’s schedule remains packed. Despite rumors, Coupe appears to be up to a very productive 2025.
“Sad.” Netizens took to social media to express their concern for the actress’ health

She's 15 years older now. Duh. Body-shaming for the win once again.

She's only 43, she should not look this rough. Whatever the reason for her condition, it's obviously not our business, but it's natural to be concerned.
