Though The Big Bang Theory wrapped up in 2019, the bond between its stars Kaley Cuoco and Melissa Rauch remains strong. The two former co-stars continue to support each other, celebrating milestones with heartfelt gestures that delight fans.
On March 30, Kaley Cuoco announced the birth of her daughter, Matilda Carmine Richie, with her partner, Ozark actor Tom Pelphrey. Sharing the joyous news on Instagram, Kaley received an outpouring of love from celebrity friends, fans, and former colleagues. Among them was Melissa Rauch, who sent a touching message to celebrate her friend’s new role as a mother.
Melissa’s Heartfelt Message
Though Melissa didn’t comment immediately, her words came a few days later and carried warmth and joy. On April 4, the Night Court actress left a heartfelt note under Kaley’s post, expressing her excitement:
“Soooo beautiful!!! Absolutely over the moon for you all! 💕💕💕💕.”
The public message delighted longtime fans of The Big Bang Theory, many of whom responded with heart emojis and nostalgic references to Rauch’s character, Bernadette. Melissa’s sweet comment reflected the enduring friendship between the actresses, even years after their time working together on the hit sitcom.
Kaley and Melissa’s Unwavering Support
Although Kaley didn’t publicly respond to Melissa’s comment—understandably so, as she had just given birth—their bond has long been evident. Over the years, the actresses have consistently shown up for each other, demonstrating that their connection extends beyond the screen.
One memorable instance occurred in 2016 when Melissa co-wrote and starred in the comedy The Bronze. Kaley attended the film’s premiere, standing by her friend’s side and showing her unwavering support. Their camaraderie during events like this reminds fans of the special relationship they cultivated while working on The Big Bang Theory.
A Friendship Rooted in Love and Respect
The bond between Kaley and Melissa is also evident in their shared moments on social media. A particularly sentimental moment came in May 2019, during the emotional farewell to The Big Bang Theory. Melissa posted a heartfelt photo of herself and Kaley in a group hug with the rest of the cast. Accompanying the photo, Melissa wrote:
“❤️ Always ❤️.”
The picture and message struck a chord with fans, encapsulating the deep friendships formed over 12 seasons of filming together.
Fans Celebrate the Cast’s Continued Bond
Melissa’s recent message to Kaley about her baby resonated with fans who continue to follow the lives of The Big Bang Theory stars. It’s clear that the camaraderie formed on set has translated into real-life friendships, even as the cast moves on to new projects and personal milestones.
This public moment of joy not only highlighted the enduring connection between Melissa and Kaley but also reminded fans why they loved The Big Bang Theory: for its heart as much as its humor.
