They told People in a joint statement on Sept. 3 that, despite \u201ca deep love and respect for one another,\u201d their \u201ccurrent paths\u201d had taken them in \u201copposite directions.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n

\u201cWe have both shared so much of our journey publicly so while we would prefer to keep this aspect of our personal life private, we wanted to be forthcoming in our truth together. There is no anger or animosity, quite the contrary,\u201d their statement continued.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

Their divorce proceedings swiftly got underway, with legal documents revealing later that month that Kaley asked the court to deny her ex any spousal support, thanks to an \u201cironclad prenup\u201d put in place to protect her earnings.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

And now, nearly a year on, Kaley is reflecting on the \u201cdark\u201d period of time following their split.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

In a new interview with Variety, the actor revealed that she was processing the aftermath of her divorce while shooting the second season of her hit show, The Flight Attendant<\/i> \u2014 and the difficult time was made worse by the fact that her character, Cassie, had hit \u201crock bottom\u201d on the show.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\u201cIt was one of the hardest years of my life. Not only personally, but doing this character that was so tormented,\u201d she began. \u201cIt was the first time that I started therapy \u2014 I’ve been very open about that … just because I was going through so much right before we started shooting.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

She went on to reveal that the simultaneous stress in both her personal and professional life became so unbearable that it began to take a toll on her physical health too, manifesting in painful rashes that left her unable to walk.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\n

\u201cIt was horrible,\u201d Kaley recalled. \u201cI developed a stress rash that ran all the way down my body for three straight months that wouldn’t go away. I literally, like, had fire on my leg for three months. I could barely walk.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n

As a result, her costar Zosia Mamet moved in with her to be a roommate and lend a helping hand, with Kaley revealing that the time prior was \u201cthe loneliest [she\u2019d] ever felt.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n

\u201cI really needed someone with me,\u201d Kaley said of life on set. \u201cI was really losing my mind. And then so many of these scenes were so hard to do because they were so hateful, so sad, and so dark, and there wasn’t a lot of levity.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Before long, Kaley made the decision to stage an intervention for herself<\/i>the show’s producers in every trailer and to ask for their support in this tough moment.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\n

\u201cOne month in, I had an intervention on myself in my trailer \u2014 all my producers were in there. And I said, ‘I need help.’ It was interesting to say that out loud. And to have everyone be like, ‘Yes, we want to help!’\u201d she revealed.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI’ve been very open about it, because I think for the first time, I wanted people to know that things just aren’t always what they seem. And things aren’t always so perfect,\u201d she admitted. \u201cI’m a working woman, and so independent, and I really take pride in being able to do everything. Well, this time, I literally couldn’t.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\n

Reflecting now, Kaley admitted that she launched herself into an intense work schedule in an attempt to suppress her sadness, calling it \u201ca super dark time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI just didn’t know how to deal with it. I was throwing myself into work to deny my depression, and how upset I was. Unfortunately, the character was so depressed that it wasn’t helping me!\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n

\n

\u201cI was really, really, really struggling,\u201d Kaley added. \u201cA lot of tears.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\n

luckily, the The Big Bang Theory<\/i> star is in a much happier place today, having recently embarked on a new relationship with actor Tom Pelphrey.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

Last month, the couple, who debuted their romance in May, shared a sweet moment after they both received Emmy nominations \u2014 Tom’s for his performance in Ozark<\/i>and Kaley for The Flight Attendant<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

\u201cCONGRATULATIONS TO MY FAVORITE ACTRESS!!!\u201d Tom wrote on Instagram beside an adorable video of Kaley finding out about her nomination. \u201cSuch beautiful, brave work. Beyond grateful to share this with you today,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n

Kaley soon returned the gesture in her own post, writing: \u201cTo share this moment with my \u2665\ufe0f @tommypelphrey with his own deserved nomination… what a moment and we are so grateful.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n
