Kaley Cuoco was beyond emotional as her fiancé, Tom Pelphrey, won his first Primetime Emmy Award.
As he won the award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for his role in HBO’s Task, the 44-year-old actor gave a sweet shout-out to his “very pregnant” fiancée in the audience, who immediately burst into tears.
Pelphrey called the Big Bang Theory star “my favourite actor in this room — my love, my best friend, my partner,” telling her, “I love you more than anything, and our family is the own jewel of my life.”
The Ozark alum also gave a sweet shoutout to their 3-year-old daughter, Matilda, and the baby girl they are expecting.
Sharing the moment to her Instagram Stories, Cuoco, 40, joked, “Not sure I’ll ever stop crying!” In the next slide, she wrote, “Will I ever get over this? I don’t think so!”
Following the win, the couple stepped aside to FaceTime Matilda.
Pelphrey and Cuoco welcomed their first daughter in May 2023, less than a year after they started dating. They couple became engaged in 2024 and announced their second pregnancy in June.
