In case you weren’t aware, The Flight Attendant star Kaley Cuoco married hot equestrian billionaire heir Karl Cook back in 2018. We’re about to get into literally every single detail you need to know about Karl, but first, here are a few highlights from his and Kaley’s history together:

• Kaley started dating Karl in 2016 following her divorce from tennis pro Ryan Sweeting.
• Kaley and Karl got engaged in November 2017 and were married on Karl’s ranch (which we’ll get to in a moment, because wowowowowow).

Karl and Kaley lived apart for the first couple of years of marriage, with Kaley explaining to E! News, “We have a very unconventional marriage, you know. We have different locations that we’re at a lot. We’re not together every single day.”

In November 2019, Kaley explained the situation further on the Brad Behavior podcast, saying, "Yes, we have separate lives and then our lives come together and he's so supportive of me. He lets me be me and I let him be him...I've obviously never been in a better relationship and I want this to last the rest of my life so in a way, we're actually taking it slow."

All that changed during lockdown in early 2020, when the couple finally moved in together. “This quarantine has actually forced us to move in together. It’s been great for our relationship,” Kaley told Jimmy Kimmel in the interview below. “And we like each other, we realized! Which is even better.”

Karl told Phelps Sports (via Yahoo) that he’s into “making bowls, cups, tables, and many other things on a wood lathe. I call it ‘lazy turning.’ Instead of having to move a carving tool around and carve into wood, I just sit there and hold a tool under the wood as the machine turns the wood.”

Welp, wood is as good a subject to end on as any. Have fun with your newfound Karl Cook knowledge, friends!
