Leonard and Penny’s relationship on The Big Bang Theory had several ups and downs in the sitcom. But despite this, they not only got married, but the ending also showcased the duo expecting their first child together. While this was the story on screen, behind the scenes, Kaley Cuoco and Johnny Galecki were keeping a romantic secret of their own.
The actors were actually dating in real life, a fact that most of the cast and crew were unaware of. And the actors themselves made every effort to ensure their budding romance was not out in the open during their first Comic-Con together. As reported by People, the duo attended the convention in San Diego soon after they started dating.
To keep this detail under wraps, they stayed in different buildings as well as separate hotel rooms, but within the same hotel complex.
Cuoco humorously revealed an amusing detail, adding that since they had separate rooms, “We were like little mice in the night,” as they would often sneak back and forth between each other’s rooms. This was just to ensure that they did not get spotted and also to spend quality time with each other. The actress also added that this situation made them feel as if they were acting out a romantic scene from a movie.
