The Real Reason Kaley Cuoco Isn't Ready To Date Again After Her Divorce

Kaley Cuoco married Karl Cook back in 2018. The pair seemed like a perfect match; they both share a passion for animals. Not only that, but Cook is an equestrian and Cuoco is an avid horse lover. The two frequently posted about one another on social media, and everything appeared to be fine between them. In fact, they had celebrated their third wedding anniversary in June, and they both wrote very touching captions to one another on Instagram. "I love you oh so much you have no idea," Cuoco's Instagram caption read, in part. "I love you so much and I can't wait for a million more years," Cook captioned his Instagram share.

Just three months later, Cuoco and Cook announced their split. "Despite a deep love and respect for one another, we have realized that our current paths have taken us in opposite directions," their statement to People magazine read, in part. "We have both shared so much of our journey publicly so while we would prefer to keep this aspect of our personal life private, we wanted to be forthcoming in our truth together," the statement continued.

Cuoco and Cook have an "ironclad" prenuptial agreement, according to Page Six, which should ensure that their divorce proceedings move forward without issue. Cuoco and Cook are now looking at a future apart from one another, and may try to find love again, albeit with different people. However, Cuoco isn't exactly ready to date just yet. Read on to find out why.

Kaley Cuoco has "been in really great spirits lately," a source told Us Weekly. "She certainly doesn't come off as someone who just separated from her husband," the source added. While it's unclear what might have caused the break in Cuoco and Karl Cook's marriage, it sounds like she's really doing okay. Us Weekly's source went on the explain that Cuoco isn't really thinking about dating anyone new right now. Although there are "countless guys who would love to date her," she's focused on other things at the moment — such as her career. "The Flight Attendant" actor is reportedly taking some time for herself. She wants to "focus on herself and focus on her upcoming roles." 

According to her IMDb page, Cuoco has finished filming "The Man From Toronto," and "Meet Cute," a romantic comedy co-starring actor Pete Davidson. She doesn't have anything lined up for 2022, save for another season of "The Flight Attendant," though it's unclear if she has already filmed her parts for the new episodes. Nevertheless, "she remains positive and optimistic about the future," Us Weekly's source shares.

Kaley Cuoco stepped out for her first public appearance post-split at the 2021 Emmy Awards. Cuoco walked the red carpet solo, wearing a bright neon yellow gown with a high slit. She wore her hair up with her bangs dusting over the top of her eyes as she flashed a few smiles to the nearby cameras. Cuoco was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her role in "The Flight Attendant," according to People magazine. Cuoco's makeup artist decided to go with a fresh-faced, natural look to compliment the ensemble. 

"We didn't want to compete with the dress. We wanted it to be ethereal and nude but wet and luminous for some texture. The make-up and skincare prep always compliments her rather than causes a huge statement. I think with Kaley she's always put together in a way that is organic, classy, and fun," Cuoco's makeup artist Jamie Greenberg told People. Cuoco certainly didn't look like a woman who was going through a divorce. She seemed to be very happy and it appeared as though she very much enjoyed her time with her colleagues.
