Kaley Cuoco gushes about boyfriend Karl Cook

Kaley Cuoco has "finally found her horse guy".

The ‘Big Bang Theory’ star couldn’t help but gush about her boyfriend Karl Cook and their shared passion for animals.

She said: "I can’t stop smiling. Life is so, so good. I finally found my horse guy. It was very meant to be," she added of Cook. He’s an amazing rider, amazing equestrian and a great human. We shared a passion for horses and dogs … It’s been lovely."

The 30-year-old actress ended her marriage with Ryan Sweeting in 2015 after 21 months together and admits she knew "deep down" it was the right thing to go their separate ways.

Speaking on The Talk, she added: "Even deep down [I was] like, ‘I know this is just not the right thing.’ I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. Even when I went through my big breakup …

"I might have said some things like ‘I’m never gonna love again, I’m never gonna get married again.’ The people that know you best, they know my heart … That’s just not me. I’m just glad I got through it. I couldn’t be happier."

Meanwhile, Kaley previously admitted she doesn’t think her relationship with Karl would be so strong if they didn’t share a passion for horses.

She said: "When you share something so special, some sort of connection – for us, it’s horses, but anything two people share – you have that common goal and you know that you want the same things in life, day to day, and in the future.

"It just sets you on a better path. Having a lot in common is really important and we definitely have a lot in common. I think that that’s what makes us so strong and really happy."
