Kaley Cuoco and Tom Pelphrey welcome baby girl

The 'Big Bang Theory' alum, 40, announced the arrival of their baby girl on Instagram on Wednesday, October 14, sharing a series of sweet photos from the hospital.

The couple's daughter, Philomena Carmine Bobby Pelphrey, was born on October 12.

“There are no words to describe this feeling once again. What a blessing,” Cuoco wrote while introducing their newborn.

She added, “We are so grateful for the crazy wild up and down journey that brought us to our little Philo! Family officially complete.”

The actress also gave a sweet shoutout to their older daughter, Matilda, who is now a big sister. Cuoco joked about bringing the newborn home to meet her sibling, writing, “Time to bring Matilda's baby home!”

Cuoco also shared a loving message for Pelphrey, 44, expressing how much her life had changed since they met. “@tommypelphrey life exploded the minute we met, and the gifts keep coming. I love you forever, girl daddy!” she added.

The couple welcomed Matilda in March 2023, and the arrival of their second daughter marks another major milestone for the family.

Cuoco first announced her second pregnancy in June, sharing family photos that included a cake revealing that they were expecting another girl.

She also posted pictures of her growing baby bump and a visit to the doctor's office for a sonogram.

The actress and Pelphrey got engaged in August 2024 after going public with their relationship in 2022. Their latest announcement marks the beginning of another chapter as they embrace life as a family of four.
