The couple confirmed they were dating in May.
At the time, Cuoco posted a reel to her Instagram page of the pair on a mountain getaway, that included Polaroid shots of Pelphrey kissing her on her cheek.
Alongside the shot, she wrote the caption: “Life lately. ‘The sun breaks through the clouds, rays of gold slipping into my eyes and heart, rays of yellow to break the grey’.”
Pelphrey also shared the pictures to his Instagram account, alongside a lengthy quote, in which he wrote: “But nothing can save you. Not your friends, not the best Fred Astaire musical you’ve ever seen – the grace of it, not your mother’s beauty, not a line from a letter you find at the bottom of a drawer, not a magazine or the next day. Nothing can save you.”
