"Big Bang Theory" star Kaley Cuoco and husband Ryan Sweeting have officially called it quits. News of the split has been rumored for months but it was only now that the celebrity couple have legally filed for divorce.
After a whirlwind romance, the 29 year old has reportedly complied with all court documents so she can end her marriage to the tennis pro, 29.
According to Us Weekly, Cuoco cited "irreconcilable differences" as the cause of the break up. Documents show that the separation date for the pair was listed as September 3 of this year and after three weeks of living separately, they've decided to end their union.
Before confirming the split, Cuoco has been aggressively defending the state of her marriage but after 21 months together, a rep for the hit TV star says the both "mutually decided to end their marriage".
The Root Cause Of The Divorce?
Hollywood Life has published that per a source, Ryan's attitude played a major role in the couple's decision to move on from their marriage. Apparently, Kaley wasn't happy with the pity party the athlete was wallowing in.
"Ryan was home all the time," revealed an insider to the entertainment portal exclusively. "He was dealing with an injury and would be kind of a party pooper and would really want people to feel bad for him. Kaley's life on the other hand, is going pretty well right now and she is a very fun loving person. They had a lot of good times together, but the change in his demeanor following his injury made him different from the person she fell in love with. She decided that it would be better to move on because things weren't helping to change his attitude."
The source adds that it was only a matter of time till the marriage imploded. Kaley reported "tried to make it work but felt like she was the only one making an effort."
As Kaley's fairytale marriage comes to an end, per the publication, Cuoco will be getting everything stipulated in the prenup agreement and has also decided to retain her maiden name. She has put forth the request to revert back to her name, Kaley Cuoco from her married legal name, Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting.
Since confirming the split, Kaley has been seen spending time with friends and family refusing to let the situation overwhelm her, wrote Hollywood Life. She's been extremely focused on her new horse Zasa and has devoted her time to helping disadvantaged kids and rescue animals.
