Ryan Sweeting has responded to Kaley Cuoco's divorce filing.

E! News obtained the court documents filed by the tennis player on Oct. 15 in Los Angeles Superior Court, and there were some notable points found in the legal document. Like Cuoco's original filing on Sept 25, Ryan cites ever-so-popular "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split.

However, Sweeting states Sept. 25 (the day of Kaley's filing) as the date of separation, as opposed to Sept. 3, which was what Cuoco stated in her filing.

The documents also show that the actress' ex is asking for spousal support and requesting to terminate the court's ability to award support to Kaley. In her papers, Kaley stated spousal support was payable and terminable as set forth from the couple's prenuptial agreement, which they signed on Nov. 20, 2013.

Ryan is also asking Kaley to pay for his attorney's fees, something The Big Bang Theory star listed would be paid by both parties, per their prenup.

"Kaley Cuoco and Ryan Sweeting have mutually decided to end their marriage," Cuoco's rep told us on in late September. "They ask for privacy at this time. No further statement will be issued regarding this matter."

The 29-year-old actress and the tennis player wed on Dec. 31, 2013.

Cuoco recently took to social media to trump rumors that her marriage suffered because she "never got over" her love for her Big Bang Theory co-star Johnny Galecki, and has been rekindling her romance with him ever since announcing her divorce.

"So sorry to disappoint, but no home wreckers or secret flings going on here," she captioned a black and white photo fist bumping Galecki on Instagram. "Me and @sanctionedjohnnygalecki are just the best of buds- Leonard and Penny will just have to suffice!!!"
