Kaley Cuoco is on cloud nine! Following the announcement of her engagement to Tom Pelphrey, the Big Bang Theory alum’s life “has been a whirlwind of happiness” since sharing the news of her upcoming wedding.
“She’s incredibly happy with Tom,” the insider reveals. “Her daughter brings so much joy. Kaley absolutely loves being a mom. For years, her primary focus was her career.
Now, being able to focus on her family has made her truly thrive. Marriage wasn’t a priority for her until now.”
The source adds, “Kaley is ecstatic about being engaged. You can bet she’ll plan the most stunning wedding, and it will be even more special with her daughter involved.”
On August 15, the Flight Attendant star, 38, announced her engagement in a post on her Instagram Stories, captioning a photo of her ring with the Ozark alum, “Amazing weekend.”
Cuoco publicly confirmed her relationship with Pelphrey in May 2022 via Instagram. The couple welcomed their daughter, Matilda Carmine Richie, in March 2023.
“The new light of our lives! We are overjoyed and so grateful for this little miracle.
Thanks to the doctors, nurses, family, and friends who have supported us over the past few days. We are blessed beyond belief,” Cuoco captioned a series of photos of their newborn.
She added, “@tommypelphrey, I didn’t think I could love you more, but I do.”
Pelphrey shared his own announcement: “My heart is full of love and gratitude for this miracle. Eternally thankful for the strength and bravery of my soulmate and best friend @kaleycuoco. You are amazing.”
The couple first met in April 2022 after being introduced by their manager, Andrea Pett-Joseph. “She said, ‘Oh my God, I think you two are perfect for each other,'” Cuoco shared in an interview with USA Today.
When they finally met at the Ozark premiere, Cuoco knew it was something special.
“I heard his voice, turned around, and it was like my life was either over or just beginning. It hit me—it was love at first sight,” she recalled. “We connected instantly. It feels like I’ve known him forever, but I wasn’t ready for him until now.”
“We’re ready to build a life together,” she added.
