Many would try to use the fact that she forgot to thank her husband Ryan Sweeting during her People's Choice Award acceptance speech against her, so Kaley Cuoco's co-star and ex-boyfriend Johnny Galecki stepped in to keep her from negative scrutiny and press.

Kaley Cuoco & Ryan Sweeting Make Their First Red-Carpet Appearance After Feminist Comments

As the Big Bang Theory cast took to the stage to accept their award for Favorite Network TV Comedy during the Jan. 7 telecast, Galecki quickly took to the microphone and made a point of thanking Cuoco's husband for her-sparing the actress some negative publicity and also showing that the two ex's really are on great terms with one another.

"Hey, wow, thank you so much. Hey, just real quick, I'd like to take a brief moment, because Kaley forgot during her speech to thank her husband Ryan," he said, as Cuoco stood off to the side and gave him a thumbs up while saying "Ok, thank you."

"You are my heart, and I can't imagine what I'd be without you," Galecki continued, addressing Cuoco's absentee husband.

"I appreciate that, thanks," Cuoco then added.

During her speech, Cuoco remembered to thank her fans and co-stars, and also managed to plug her upcoming movie, The Wedding Ringer.

However, the actress managed to continue poking fun at her mishap, posting a video on her Instagram page which showed Galecki thanking her husband, which was presumably recorded by Sweeting as he watched the award show from home, as he can be heard laughing in the background.
