Did Tom Pelphrey and Kaley Cuoco plan to get secretly married?

Before Kaley Cuoco met her fiancé, Tom Pelphrey, she was married to tennis professional Ryan Sweeting. However, their marriage was short-lived, and they got divorced just 21 months into married life. At the time, the former couple had cited "irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split.

Kaley then went on to marry Karl Cook a few years later, in 2018. While they looked head over heels on the outside, things were not the same behind the scenes. When they finally realized that their lives were moving in a different direction, Kaley and Karl filed for divorce. Following this, Kaley said that she would “never get married again” because she was not ready to face another heartbreak.

Kaley soon changed her mind after she met her now-fiancé, Tom Pelphrey. As their relationship progressed, the couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Matilda Carmine Richie on March 30, 2023. In the weeks leading up to Matilda’s birth, Kaley and Tom sparked marriage rumors as the actress was spotted leaving a beauty salon in Los Angeles while wearing a gold band on her left ring finger.

What made fans more suspicious is that Kaley wore the same ring to the Golden Globes that year. Meanwhile, Tom was seen wearing a similar gold ring for months before Kaley’s ring became a topic of discussion.
