"The Big Bang Theory" actress Kaley Cuoco and Karl Cook seem to be the ultimate Hollywood couple, at least on social media, considering their never-ending banter and giggling. For everyone who thought Cuoco had upped and married a "nobody", Cook not only is a big deal in the equestrian world, he also comes from money from his parents' side.
When it comes to horses, its Cook who is the celebrity and Cuoco met him during an equestrian event, being a showjumper herself.
Here are all the details about Karl Cook, the man behind Kaley's ever-present smile...
Kaley Does Not 'Need' Karl

Now, now, don't get us wrong. Kaley Cuoco loves her husband of five years and counting and "wants" him around, but the one thing she has often said about him and marriage, in general, is that she does not need Karl.
As told to Women's Health, "If Karl left me tomorrow, I’d be fine. And he knows that, and he would be fine too".
Because according to Kaley, you have to make yourself number one. "Anyone who comes into it—husband, or boyfriend, or girlfriend, however you roll—that’s just an added bonus to something you’re already creating"...
The need is not there for the couple, but the love is...

In this marriage, it's not just Kaley Cuoco who is the celebrity. She may be the big thing in Hollywood or rather more TV than movies, but when it comes to horses, as in equestrian racing, Cook is very well known. In 2016, he won the blue ribbon in the SmartPak Grand Prix, for a $25,000 take-home prize.
And then, he comes from money as well with his dad, Scott Cook being worth $2 billion, considering he founded the tax software company Intuit.
Kaley, meanwhile, is in it for the foals...

Karl Cook does not just look rather young, he is kinda young, 30 to Kaley Cuoco's 35. Of course, in love, age is a mere number, and Cook, who goes by the social media hand MrTanCook, dotes on his wife.
Not only is he an avid photographer, but she is also his favorite muse. And then he loves to lazy lathe as well, making stuff out of wood. In fact, to celebrate Kaley's last birthday, he made her a custom-made mounting block, embedded with Kaley's horse' shoes...

Of course, Kaley later returned the favor when Cook turned 30 and regularly posts updates of his wins and achievements, like "This guy! Why are you so cool?! @mrtankcook@pomponioranch & Caillou take the win @westpalmsevents Riders Cup final GP! ? ? ?"
And she may not have won the Golden Globes, but Cook sure made it clear that he was very happy for his gorgeous wife as he told her to "keep killing it, honey", posting a picture of her Variety Cover...
