Kaley Cuoco and boyfriend Tom Pelphrey get engaged: 'I'm grateful'

Kaley Cuoco is ready to tie the knot again, just two years after publicly vowing not to marry.

The “Fight Attendant” and “Big Bang Theory” star announced Wednesday that she is engaged to boyfriend and “Mank” actor Tom Pelphrey in a series of photos and videos shared to her Instagram Story. In one story, Cuoco showed off a dazzling engagement ring on her finger and reflected on “what a wild and beautiful ride life can be.”

“Grateful for every path that led me right to you @tommypelphrey,” she wrote. Cuoco also shared several black-and-white photos of her and Pelphrey’s little family. The actors have a daughter, Matilda.

In 2022, Kuoco, 38, confirmed her relationship with the “amazing” “Ozark” and “Banshee” actor, 42. “To know you is to truly adore you,” the Oh Norman dog brand owner wrote in a July 2022 Instagram post celebrating Pelphrey’s birthday. Months before making it Instagram official, the Emmy nominees were spotted together at producer Greg Berlanti’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony. They also took their romance to the red carpet with appearances at the Emmys in 2022 and the Golden Globes in January 2023, among other entertainment events.

Cuoco announced that she and Pelphrey were expecting their first child together in October 2022 and welcomed baby Matilda in March 2023. While celebrating Matilda's birth, Cuoco wrote on Instagram: “@tommypelphrey I didn't think I could fall even more in love with you but I did.”

The “Big Bang Theory” alum’s marriage to Pelphrey would be her third. She was first married to tennis player Ryan Sweeting, but they split in September 2015 after less than two years. Following that, Cuoco split from Olympic equestrian Karl Cook in September 2021, after three years of marriage.

Just months after her most recent divorce, Cuoco made a different kind of promise: “I will never get married again,” she told Glamour in a cover story published in April 2022.

“Absolutely not. You can literally put that on the cover,” she said at the time, before clarifying that she wasn't completely against love.

She added: “I believe in love because I have had amazing relationships. I know they exist. I like being someone’s partner and having that company.”
