They first met at the Paris Theater in NYC during the Ozark season 4 premiere, after being set up by their shared manager. The pair went Instagram official in May 2022 and announced their engagement in August 2024. The couple shares daughter Matilda Carmine Richie Pelphrey, 3. Pelphrey posted a photo of them in matching brown sweaters—calling the look unintended—and has described his life with Cuoco as "heaven," while acknowledging the challenges they’ve faced together. Cuoco replied to his anniversary post with playful emojis and a message that she loves him madly through it all.
