"First off, she's engaged to Ryan and he is wonderful," the 40-year-old actor exclaimed to Us Weekly. But what does he get out of it? "As I made very clear, I'm a big big tennis fan and he's a tennis player, so I expect to exploit this relationship for all it's worth," he joked.

"For tickets to events — free anything!" he added. "I want Serena [Williams] to sign something for me. She's my favorite."

Parsons and Cuoco — costars since 2007 — are close friends off set and are clearly supportive of each other. When Parsons won at the 2013 Primetime Emmys for Best Actor in a Comedy Series last month, Cuoco, 27, was spotted crying in the audience for her good friend.
