Kaley Cuoco and Tom Pelphrey Prove Their Love Is Mile-High at the Critics Choice Awards 2026
Kaley Cuoco is getting candid about a low point in her life.
The Big Bang Theory alum looked back on her 2021 breakup with ex-husband Karl Cook after 3 years of marriage, reflecting on reaching a breaking point the following year amid their divorce proceedings.
“It was the premiere of the second season of Flight Attendant, and I woke up that morning, I was so depressed and so sad, I couldn’t even breathe and I was just laying on the floor,” she said during an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show set to air Feb. 9, per Entertainment Weekly. “I literally thought I was gonna die. I really did. I said, ‘What am I doing?’”
Kaley, 40, admitted her despair was so intense that she nearly pulled out of the red carpet event at the last minute.
“My team came over to get me ready, and they literally got me ready on the floor,” she recalled. “I couldn’t get up. I’m like, ‘I can’t go. I can’t go anywhere. I blew up my life. My life’s over.’ I truly thought that. Never getting married again. I’m never gonna have kids. This is it.”
