Kaley Cuoco led a cavalcade of celebrities at a glamorous heart health charity event in Los Angeles in memory of her late TV father, John Ritter.
John played Kaley’s father in the comedy 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter, until his shocking death from an aortic dissection in 2003, aged just 54.
Over the years, Kaley, 38, has poignantly reflected on the close bond she shared with John and the heartbreaking pain she experienced when he died.
Now she’s lent her showbiz shine to An Evening From The Heart LA, a fundraising gala hosted for the John Ritter Foundation for Aortic Health.
She arrived on the black carpet in a sparkly robe-like dress that was tantalizingly sheer over the matching slip she wore underneath.

Kaley got some family support that night, sharing a hug on camera with her younger sister Briana, 35.
The family resemblance between the two was on display as they treated photographers to their similar smiles.
Briana, who paired her sumptuous dark hair with a white high-neck top and a powder pink miniskirt, warmly draped an arm over her sister’s shoulders.
Kaley also enjoyed a warm moment on the red carpet with John’s widow, Amy Yasbeck, who was married to him from 1999 until his death.
Amy, who was a 1990s comedy star on Wings, gave the affair a touch of showbiz dazzle in a purple sequin dress that complemented her orange curls.
John and Amy’s handsome son, Tyler Ritter, 39, who followed his parents into the acting profession, was also present at the star-studded event.
He could be seen joining his mother and Kaley for some group shots in which he flashed his megawatt smile, bringing back memories of his father.
The elegant gala was a family affair, as Amy and Tyler were also seen squatting down to be photographed with John’s brother Tom Ritter, who attended the party in a wheelchair.
