Small screen staple Kaley Cuoco has had her fair share of heartaches throughout her life. She’s had affairs, promising relationships gone awry, and even a failed marriage. Could her second marriage to Karl Cook be the ultimate antidote to her failed past relationships? Well, this is Hollywood and as we’ve all come to see, only time can truly tell. As we cross our fingers in the hope that Kaley and Karl grow old together, let’s take a trip down memory lane to see the frogs Cuoco had to kiss to join his Prince Charming.

Jaron Lowenstein 2005-2006
Jaron, the other half of the singing duo Evan and Jaron (the other being his twin brother), swept Cuoco off his feet in 2005. They made many public appearances together, but a year was enough for everything to fall apart. collapses.

Things were quiet for Cuoco romantically for a while. During this period, she was said to be dating actor and former model Al Santos and was also linked to 8 Simple Rules guest star Josh Henderson. Little did the world know Cuoco was kicking The Big Bang Theory co-star and on-screen husband Johnny Galecki. Throughout the two-year period they dated, mom was the word. The world only got to know in 2010, after amicably ending things and moving on to other lovers. Their level of friendship since their breakup is… OBJECTIVES! He attended both of his weddings!
Christopher French (2011)
After ending Galecki, Cuoco continued to date vocalist Christopher French. This time, she didn’t keep it a secret as they made a few red carpet appearances. It ended shortly, but before that they recorded a song together. The duet, titled ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’, was to benefit the charity Humane Society. The Frenchman is now married to former Disney star Ashley Tisdale.
Josh Resnik (2011-2012)
Cuoco then fell in love with addiction specialist Josh Resnik and by October 2011 they had become engaged. Unfortunately, they were never able to walk down the aisle together as they broke off their engagement in March 2012.
Brett Bollinger (2012-2013)
And then came Pepper singer Bret Bollinger. Cameras spotted them stealing a kiss while attending a Lakers game together in May 2012. The flame lasted until January 2013.
Ryan Sweeting (2013-2015)
After ending things with Bret Bollinger, KalyCuoco was seen holding hands on the streets with British dude Henry Cavill, yes! Superman Henry Cavill. It was an exciting pairing that ended a little too soon. Cuoco then rebounded with tennis player, Ryan Sweeting. It was her first time dating an athlete. Their relationship began in June 2013 and in September after three months together Sweeting popped the question and by December 2013 Cuoco had become Mrs. Sweeting.
Their wedding on New Year’s Eve in SantaSusana, California was a private but lavish ceremony. Kaley donned a pink wedding dress for her big day while Ryan kept it simple but chic in an all-black tuxedo. They remained married until September 2013 when they separated. Sweeting’s addiction problem was one of the main reasons for their divorce. In an interview with Cosmopolitan in 2018, Kaley revealed how Ryan became very different from who he was when they first married. She was deeply hurt as she revealed while appearing on Ellen in February 2016.
Karl Cook (2016 -)

Towards the end of 2016, Cuoco found love in the eyes of equestrian Karl Cook whose father is billionaire businessman Scott Cook. Cook popped the question about Cuoco’s 32nd birthday on Nov. 30, 2017, and on June 30, 2018, they tied the knot in a horse ranch wedding.
