Now Mayim, 46, has gotten real with her fans by sharing intimate photos from her doctor’s office.
The TV star took to her Instagram profile on Friday to post pictures from the OBGYN in a hospital gown.
The brunette grinned for several selfies, but also shared an honest story about her wardrobe malfunction while at the appointment.
Mayim captioned her post: “Here’s your friendly neighborhood reminder to please get your yearly pap tests and mammograms if you’re over 40, or have a family history!!
She continued: “Fun fact about my recent visit – I somehow managed to break open the top of the gown, making it unwearable. (I tore it open like a toilet seat cover.) The doctor said she had never seen anyone not know how to put on a top.
“Guess a PhD means nothing when faced with a paper hospital gown,” the actress joked.
Fans filled the comments with praises as they lauded the star for being honest.
AU NATURALE
Earlier this week, Mayim went makeup-free in a rare at-home photo shared with her followers.
The snap came while her co-host Ken Jennings was filming new episodes ahead of season 39.
Taking to Instagram earlier this week, the Big Bang Theory star first updated her four million followers with a mirror selfie.
She posed bare-faced with her hair disheveled as she took a snap with one of her three cats.
The TV personality looked almost unrecognizable compared to her onscreen glam, wearing a black sweater and comfy pants.
Mayim posted the image to promote a brand of cat litter box, telling her followers: “I live for my cats but I could definitely live without having to clean their litter!”
The updates from Mayim’s personal life came as she takes a break from filming the game show.
DOUBLE DUTY
Season 38 of Jeopardy! wrapped up on July 31 and ABC is now airing reruns until Season 39 begins on September 12.
When the beloved brainy quiz show returns, former champ Ken, 48, will be permanently splitting the hosting duties with Mayim.
Ken will host the episodes airing from September to January before Mayim takes over the reins until the end of the season.
She’ll divide her time between filming the game show and her own Fox comedy, Call Me Kat.
BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
The major decision that both hosts would replace the late Alex Trebek was announced on the game show’s website last month.
The pair have been sharing the job since October 2021.
In an online statement, Jeopardy! Executive Producer Michael Davies wrote: “Mayim and Ken are both extraordinarily talented and simply lovely humans.
“They support the staff and each other. They love and respect this institution of a television program. In return, the staff and I are honored to work alongside them.”
Praising how both hosts have “stepped up” and are “at the beginning of their Jeopardy! hosting careers,” Michael boasted that the show has earned 27M weekly viewers this past year.
The EP added: “We’re the most-watched entertainment show on all of television. Yes, all of television.”
