For context, Kaley announced her divorce from Karl Cook last September. The couple's joint statement read, "Despite a deep love and respect for one another, we have realized that our current paths have taken us in opposite directions."

Shortly after the announcement, rumors started floating around that Kaley and her Meet Cute costar Pete Davidson were an item — although Pete, of course, started publicly dating Kim Kardashian shortly after.

Around the same time, Kaley began shooting Season 2 ofThe Flight Attendant. Speaking about the pressures of life on set coinciding with a turbulent time in her personal life, she explained, “I am so capable and strong and I take on so many things. But this is the first time I faced something where I thought, 'I can't do this alone.'"

"I'd have these emotional scenes and then I'd go home and cry over my personal life. I developed a rash that went from my lower stomach down my leg. It lasted for seven months. I discovered through therapy and through my doctors that it was completely emotional," she continued.

As for what the future holds, Kaley said that she definitely wants a relationship. "I want to have a relationship that I give my time to and that the person feels [like they’re] really part of my life. I get so distracted with work," she continued. "I know now what I wasn’t doing [in previous relationships]. I want to change that. I really know where I’ve fucked up, and I don’t want to do that again."

"I want a deeper relationship so that [I’m not afraid to] take a week off here and there. I want to take a breath between jobs, which I haven’t done since the beginning of Big Bang. I’ve not even taken a vacation."

However, that future relationship does not include marriage for Kaley. "I will never get married again. I would love to have a long-lasting relationship or a partnership — but I will never get married again. Absolutely not," she added.

Kaley also acknowledged the speculation surrounding her and Pete, saying, "I knew it was going to happen. We really became very good friends, and he truly is one of the nicest people in the world. I loved seeing him on set, how he was with fans and with the crew. He took pictures with everybody."

"I texted him the other day and said, 'What life are you living right now? I just want to know.' I don't even think he knows how famous he is. I know that sounds cheesy. But I don’t think he knows. I got to know him very well, and he doesn’t thrive on that. He’s just Pete. He laughs everything off," she added.

As for where Kaley and Karl stand, she explained, "I think for the time being things are too raw, and knowing his heart —which is bigger than the world — we will be in each other's lives in the future. He's too special. He's too good. And I don't want to lose him completely. He knows that I feel that way. And I know he feels that way. There is deep, deep love there, for sure. And I know that we'll be in each other's lives in the future."
