Kaley Cuoco is engaged!

The Flight Attendant star, 38, announced on Instagram Stories on Aug. 15 that she's engaged to Ozark alum Tom Pelphrey. "Amazing weekend," she captioned a photo showing off the ring with the actor.

The Big Bang Theory alum publicly confirmed her relationship with Pelphrey in May 2022 on Instagram. The pair share daughter Matilda Carmine Richie whom they welcomed in March 2023.

"The new light of our lives! We are overjoyed and grateful for this little miracle. Thank you to the doctors, nurses, family and friends who have helped us immensely over the last few days. We are blessed beyond belief," Cuoco captioned a series of photos of the newborn.

The couple first connected in April 2022 when they were set up by their mutual manager [Andrea Pett-Joseph] "She's like, 'Oh my God, I think you guys are perfect for each other,'" Cuoco said during an interview with USA Today 

When they met in person at the Ozark premiere, Cuoco knew it was special.

"I heard his voice, and I turned around, and it was like my life was over, or just starting. It hit me. It was love at first sight," she recalled. "We were immediately connected. I do feel like I've known him my whole life, but I wasn't ready for him."

"We're ready to build a life together," she added.

In an interview with PEOPLE in May 2023, Pelphrey spoke about life as a new parent. "It's amazing. It's heaven, it's challenging at times," the actor said. "It's the most beautiful thing ever."

"I'm so grateful to have a partner who I love to do it with because just two days with a baby in the house and I think of parents who are raising kids by themselves, and I don't even understand how they do it," he said. "My respect for single parents has gone through the roof."

"Just getting to take her in the stroller on a walk makes the whole idea of taking a walk more magical and special."

He added of their future, "I really am excited for all of the holidays, eventually going to the East Coast and her getting to meet the rest of my family and my friends there. And it really does just makes everything magical again."

Last month, Cuoco celebrated Pelphrey's 42nd birthday with a sweet tribute on Instagram.

"42 never looked this damn good! happy birthday to my soul mate …. @tommypelphrey you make everything better.. what a life! I love you," she wrote alongside a carousel of images.
