"Big Bang Theory" Season 10 spoilers are teasing on a possible new man in Bernadette's life. Michael Ausiello from TVLine recently shared a teaser photo of Bernadette lying next to a new mystery man on Instagram.

This led to speculations that Bernadette and Howard may split up or even worse, divorce, in "TBBT" Season 10. While Ausiello refused to provide details about the mystery man, the author notes that Penny and Leonard will have some issues in their marriage.

According to Ausiello, Christine Baranski will be returning in the upcoming "Big Bang Theory" Season 10 episode to help Sheldon with his issues. While Sheldon may be the one receiving guidance from Beverly, it looks like she will be dropping some major bomb that will cause issues for Leonard and Penny.

Meanwhile, Variety is reporting on behind-the-scenes issues with regard to "Big Bang Theory" Season 10 renewal and its cast. According to the publication, Mayim Bialik and Melissa Rauch, who play as Amy and Bernadette respectively, are demanding higher pay before renewing their contracts for Seasons 11 and 12.

Bialik and Rauch are reportedly receiving $200,000 per episode of "Big Bang Theory" while the five original cast members, Kaley Cuoco, Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki, Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar are receiving $1 million per episode. Each of the five original cast members has taken $100,000 out of their salary for Bialik and Rauch, but the two actresses are reportedly asking for more.
