Kaley Cuoco hasn't been shy about sharing details of her relationship with Karl Cook. She often gives fans a look into their lives together on Instagram.

"I'm so happy. I can't stop smiling. Life is so so good," the Big Bang Theory star gushed on The Talk.

The avid equestrian is happy to be dating someone else who rides horses. Cook is a professional rider.

"We met at a horse show. I finally found my horse guy," the 30-year-old said. "It was very meant to be."

A big reason she connects with him so well is his shared love of animals.

"He's an amazing, amazing rider and jumper, amazing equestrian and a great human," she said. "We share our passion for horses and dogs and all that and it's been lovely, so I'm so happy."

That doesn't mean it hasn't been a bumpy road since her divorce from tennis player Ryan Sweeting. Her new relationship has restored her faith in love, however.

"I think even when I went through my big breakup – even my friends that know me so well – I might have said things like, 'I'm never going to love again. I'm never going to get married again.' You say these things. But the people that know you best, they know my heart and that's just not me," Cuoco continued. "I wear my heart on my sleeve. I knew even deep down, I know this is just not the right thing. The right thing is coming for me, I knew it, I knew it, I knew it."

The actress is grateful for where the journey has led her.

"We all go through these things, but a lot of people don't see everyone's personal life played out – I mean you guys understand – so a lot of people go through this stuff on their own and I'm just glad that I got through it," she said. "I couldn't be happier. It's like I saw the light somehow."
