The Big Bang Theory’s Johnny Galecki jokes that Kaley Cuoco’s husband is turning into Tiger King’s Joe Exotic
THE Big Bang Theory’s Johnny Galecki thinks his TV wife's real-life husband is taking on a more than passing resemblance to Tiger King's Joe Exotic.
Kaley Cuoco, 34, posted a photo a make-up free selfie with her husband Karl Cook who is growing out his blonde hair and sporting a bushy beard on Instagram.
It didn't take long for her former Big Bang co-stars to pipe up and point out Karl's new look.
Johnny, 44, who played Leonardo on the sitcom who was married to Kaley's character Penny was the first to comment.
He wrote: "If, God forbid, something happens to me, can my child live in Karl’s goatee?"
Then their costar Kunal Nayyar chimed in saying: “Karl’s been watching a lot of Tiger King.”
Kunal, 38, suggested that perhaps Karl was starting to look a lot like Joe Exotic, the eccentric protagonist of Netflix's Tiger King docu-series.
Joe's distinct mullet and handle-bar moustache became instantly recognisable once the series dropped on the streaming giant.
Tiger King became a worldwide hit and shone a light on the unusual world of big cats in the US.
It's good to see the Big Bang costars are still friends almost a year after the sitcom wrapped after 12 years on air.
