Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting has said that she knew her husband was 'The One' because he shared her love of animals.
Marrying Ryan just six months into their relationship, she admits that after bonding with her pets she knew he was the man for her, but joked that her pet dog Norman is the true love of her life.
Speaking to Us Weekly magazine she explained: "I couldn't have been with someone who didn't love dogs. He let ours sleep in the bed!
"Anyone that knows me, knows Norman and he is the love of my life. My husband knew that going in. He's number one, he's the apple of my eye ... I love that guy so much!"
The couple now share five horses but Kaley is the only one in the relationship brave enough to saddle up and ride them.
"He wants to pet them. He doesn't want to ride them." she told the magazine.
Previously Kaley also admitted that having dogs has in some way prepared her for parenthood, because she's now more responsible.
"I think if you can take care of a plant, then you can take care of a dog and then you can have a baby. It's all in the order.
"I can't wait actually to have kids surrounded by all the dogs at our house too and the horses, and raise them with animals and [show them] how to treat them correctly. It starts from the very beginning with puppies and with babies, and showing them how they need to be treated."
