Ultimate Dog Mom Kaley Cuoco Is Expecting Her First Child
Ultimate dog-mom Kaley Cuoco will soon be having a child of the human variety! On October 11, 2022, the “Big Bang Theory” actress took to Instagram to share the exciting news. The first two images showed Cuoco and her boyfriend, Tom Pelphrey, posing with a pink cake, indicating the child is a girl. Other pictures include Pelphrey and Cuoco holding onesies. The couple also embraced and showed off positive pregnancy tests in other photos.
“💕Baby girl Pelphrey coming 2023💕 beyond blessed and over the moon… I 💓you @tommypelphrey !!!” read the caption of the post.
Cuoco’s future child will have quite a few furry siblings. According to Us Weekly, the actress has not disclosed how many dogs she owns. While speaking to Variety in 2021, she quipped that she was concerned she had “an illegal amount of dogs.”
“I’m not allowed to say how many I have, because I am afraid they will come knocking, saying that it’s an illegal amount,” stated Cuoco.
By our count, however, it appears that the actress owns six rescue dogs, named Shirley, Ruby, Tank, Blueberry, Dumptruck, aka Dumpy, and Larry. Fans of “The Flight Attendant” may recognize her elderly chihuahua Dumpy, as he appeared in the show’s second season. The pup can even be seen in the season 2 trailer, where he is wearing a sweatshirt while sitting in a stroller.
Unfortunately, Cuoco’s beloved dog, Norman, passed away in January 2021. The 36-year-old adopted the pit bull mix nearly 15 years ago and named her production company, Yes, Norman Productions, after him. In an Instagram post announcing her loss, the actress shared that the dog “was [her] entire world for 14 years.”
“Thank you for smiling at me as you left this world, confirming for me once again our language was ours alone. You will always have my heart,” wrote the actress in the caption.
Congratulations to Kaley and Tom! We’re excited for Shirley, Ruby, Tank, Blueberry, Dumpy, and Larry to meet their new sister!
