Actress Kaley Cuoco rose to fame thanks to her role as Penny on The Big Bang Theory.
Cuoco played the next door neighbor to physicists Leonard Hofstadter and Sheldon Cooper. Penny quickly catches the eye of Leonard and the couple's on-again/off-again relationship was a central focus of the show.
Just like her character on the show, Cuoco's love life was filled with many bumps before she found true love.
Cuoco had to endure a few breakups and a divorce before she finally settled down with her husband Karl Cook.
So let's take a glimpse at Kaley Cuoco's past relationships.

Big Bang Theory fans always commented on the magnificent chemistry that Penny and Leonard had on the show.
What some fans were later stunned to learn is that in real-life, Kaley dated her co-star Johnny Galecki.
The two began dating in 2007 after the series premiered.
Unlike other celebrity couples, Kaley and Johnny kept their relationship private. Nobody knew about their romance until the couple broke up in 2009.
Even thought they split, Kaley and Johnny remained good friends and continued to work together until The Big Bang Theory's cancellation in 2019.

After her break up with Johnny Galecki, Kaley began dating a man named Josh Resnik.
Resnik worked as an addiction specialist in Los Angeles.
He and Kaley became engaged in October 2011. Resnik proposed to Cuoco when they were having a quiet evening at home.
Kaley and Josh were excited about their engagement and started going over wedding plans.
However, five months later in March 2012, Kaley revealed that they'd called off their engagement.
The star never gave a reason for their broken engagement, and instead focused on moving on.

In the summer of 2013, Cuoco began dating professional tennis player Ryan Sweeting.
After three months of dating, they became engaged in September. Their wedding took place three months later on December 31, 2013.
Kaley was happy to be married and changed her last name to Sweeting.
Despite their whirlwind romance, the couple seemed happy together. However, after less than two years of marriage, the couple filed for divorce in September 2015.
Years later, Cuoco would talk about her divorce and said the reason for the split was because her husband changed. Cuoco said Sweeting turned into a different person than the one she fell in love with.

Following her divorce, Cuoco decided to give love another shot.
In 2016, she began dating equestrian Karl Cook.
After a year of dating they became engaged in November 2017.
The couple married on June 30, 2018. The ceremony was a big affair that included Cuoco's Big Bang co-stars.
Even though she and Karl were now married, Cuoco would later reveal that they weren't living under the same roof. She said their busy schedules have kept them from moving in together.
But now all that's changed because the couple has officially moved into their new home. The couple celebrated the milestone by sharing photos and videos on Instagram.
