The secret life of Clark Kent and Penny
In 2013, news of Kaley Cuoco dating Henry Cavill made the loudest bang, sending the paparazzi and fans over the moon. By 2013, Cuoco had already made a good name for herself owing it all to her roles in ‘8 Simple Rules’ and, of course, ‘The Big Bang Theory’. However, Henry Cavill was still on the rise, although people did recognize him as the dreamy Brit from ‘The Tudors’. Moreover, he was just starting out as Superman for DC’s ‘Man of Steel’ universe, and, as we all know, there was no turning back for him ever since.

Undoubtedly, it came as a surprise when news about Cuoco and Cavill dating was all over the place. The two made their couple debut in July 2013, and the paparazzi, as well as the media, lost their cool. In fact, it shouldn’t have been otherwise, considering the girl next door and the ruggedly handsome Brit made for the perfect pair! According to popular opinion, the two had met in June of 2013 and, within a month, could not spend time apart from each other. They were always together, joined at the hip shopping, dining, hiking, running errands as the paps made the most out of it. Nevertheless, it wasn’t a fairy tale relationship as the happy high lasted for less than two weeks before they called it off. This also prompted some of the fans to label the fling as a publicity stunt, not that everyone agreed.
This is why the couple ended the fling
Being a celebrity, and in love, are not two easy things and definitely don’t fit in together. Although Kaley Cuoco had become quite a fan favourite by the time her relationship with Henry Cavill caught the public eye, she was not used to that kind of attention. Cavill and Cuoco were under the spotlight all the time and could not find a moment’s privacy in their personal lives. That might be collateral damage for leading the life of a popular Hollywood actor, but nonetheless, is overwhelming. Being with Cavill acted like a strong magnet for Cuoco, which meant being under observation 24×7, and that ‘The Big Bang Theory’ actor was not used to.
According to a source, Kaley Cuoco was having second thoughts regarding the loss of her personal and private space. The couple split on amicable terms after that. The source told “OK! Magazine”,
“She just got overwhelmed with the very public Superman relationship. She’s not used to that much attention and chaos in her life”.
Henry Cavill, apparently, had always been interested in Kaley Cuoco and found her cute (well, can you blame him!). However, he realised that the media frenzy was a tad bit too much for her to handle and decided to respect Cuoco’s wishes, taking a step back.
Kaley Cuoco taken by surprise
Years have passed and both Henry Cavill and Kaley Cuoco have moved on in their lives. While Cuoco is happily married to her husband and her career, Cavill has not stopped wearing his cape. That being said, Cuoco is still a little smitten by the fling and couldn’t help but blush when asked about her time with Cavill. In an interview on ‘Watch What Happens Live’ with Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper, the actress was ambushed by a quick ‘Man of Steel’ question. A fan asked Cuoco if the “Man of Steel” was really made of steel.
Cuoco immediately burst into a fit of blush and laughter. She said,
“Oh my god! I don’t know. I never say, ‘I don’t know’. I always have an answer — but I don’t know”.
Well, that, accompanied by a lot of laughing! Kaley Cuoco and Henry Cavill could have had a fairy tale romance, but it’s not always meant to be. Whatever it may be, the two were super cute together!
