In a series of photos posted to Instagram and her Instagram stories, “The Big Bang Theory” and “The Flight Attendant” star Kaley Cuoco announced that she is dating former “Guiding Light” and “Ozark” star Tom Pelphrey.
In the caption of her post, Cuoco says, “The sun breaks through the clouds, rays of gold slipping into my eyes and heart, rays of yellow to break the grey.” She included a heart emoji along with an evergreen tree, paw prints, and a reference to being dizzy as she referenced a new relationship with Pelphrey, and living life surrounded by nature and her dog.
Pelphrey also posted about the relationship, using a quote from January 2004 by Noah’s Wall, which states, “But nothing can save you. Not your friends, not the best Fred Astaire musical you’ve ever seen- the grace of it, not your mother’s beauty, not a line from a letter you find at the bottom of a drawer, not a magazine or the next day. Nothing can save you. And you stand in the moonlight and a sweetness comes off the top of the trees, and the fence around the yard seals you off from the dark and you can’t breathe. It is all so familiar and possible. It is too simple that there is this much good in the world and you don’t know how to have it. And it makes you wonder when it was you lost your place. Then you catch a breeze, so warm and ripe, it makes you hope that someone will come who also cannot save you, but who will think you are worth saving.”
In an Instagram story, Cuoco posted a selfie of herself and Pelphrey in what appears to be their bed. She captioned the post with “this man” while tagging Pelphrey in the post.
Pelphrey is best known to soap fans for his role as Jonathan Randall on “Guiding Light” from 2003-2009, and as Mick Dante on “As The World Turns” from 2009-2010. He played Ben Davis in the third season of the Netflix series “Ozark.” Cuoco can currently be seen as Cassie Bowden in the HBO Max series “The Flight Attendant.” She previously portrayed Penny Hofstadter in the sitcom “The Big Bang Theory” from 2007-2019.
