Kaley Cuoco Talks About Having a Rough Time After a “Very Sad” Year

It has been a very difficult year for all of us. Having to deal with the pandemic has never been easy, even for huge celebrities like Kaley Cuoco.

At only 36 years old, the beautiful actress has had a long and successful career in Hollywood. The actress started on the sitcom “Eight Simple Rules,” and then she went on to play “Penny” on the successful sitcom “The Big Bang Theory.” And now, she’s in another HBO Max show “The Flight Attendant”where her role here earned her the very first Emmy nomination.

It would be easy to believe that celebrities like Cuoco are living her best life. However, in a recent Glamour article, she made it apparent that she has been struggling with her mental health over the past year. Her professional life is thriving but her personal life is on the rocks.

She recently divorced her second husband, Karl Cook. Kaley and Karl split in 2021 after three years of marriage. During the filming of the second season of “The Flight Attendant,” she admitted to Glamour magazine that she became so stressed out that she broke out in a rash.

Cuoco recently appeared on “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” where she and Clarkson fully connected over how terrible the previous year has been for both of them. You see, Cuoco and Clarkson are both from Los Angeles. They had both decided to get divorced. And they both agree that they will never get married again. Still, they continue to believe in the power of love and hope to find it again eventually.

When speaking about the Glamour article, Cuoco told Clarkson, “This year, I wanted to be very upfront that it wasn’t my best year, and I’ve been very sad. I just wanted to tell everyone this time that not everything is what it seems, and I struggle like everybody else. Because I do feel like I put on a really pretty picture, and I just wanted to be honest without whining.

She also said that she felt like she couldn’t ask anyone for help. And when she finally did ask for help, she was surprised by how many people were there ready to support her. She explained, “There were a lot of tears.”

She then went on to explain how Zosia Mamet, who plays her best friend on “The Flight Attendant,” also happens to be her best friend in real life.

Teary eyes, she told Clarkson, “She helped me so much through season two. She basically lived with me the last few months of shooting. I don’t think I would’ve gotten to work some days without her.” Cuoco further explained that Mamet would be at work even on days when she didn’t have to be there, but she does simply because she knew Cuoco was “having a rough time.”

Mamet never hesitated to be there for her through her rough times. They would have lunch together and they would hang out in Cuoco’s trailer. Cuoco added, “She’s the best. I’m very lucky that I had her.”

In times of difficulty, when you are in doubt of yourself, sometimes all you need is a friend who will never leave your side. Just their presence would be enough to soothe you. And that’s exactly what Kaley Cuoco found in Zosia Mamet.
