Kaley Cuoco had an emotional day yesterday after she was honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The event was obviously one that was very close to the actress’ heart as she was seen dabbing her eyes with a tissue and told E! News: “I didn’t write a speech, because I thought I would speak from my heart and I already started crying in the car on the way over here, so I got that out of the way. I still think they are going to call and say this was a mistake.”

The Big Bang Theory star also payed homage to her 8 Simple Rules co-star, John Ritter, who passed away suddenly after falling ill during rehearsals for the show.

Kaley posed for a photo with John’s own Walk of Fame star and said: “He must be jumping off the walls right now. I can’t even imagine what’s going on up there.”

It was also reported that Kaley asked for her star to be close to her former on-screen dad’s star – what a sweet thought.

The actress also thanked her husband, Ryan Sweeting in her speech, saying: “My husband Ryan, who has also dealt with a lot of Kaley days, you have no idea how much I love you. This would not be the same without being able to share it with you today.”

Ryan and Kaley were married last January after a whirlwind romance.

Congratulations to the star, it sounds like she had a really lovely day.
