Dax Shepard Has Opened Up About His Marriage – And How He Recently Upset Kristen

Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell aren’t your usual celebrity couple. If they were, you might expect the inevitable facade of two famous people making millions whilst waltzing into the Hollywood sunset. ‘They are so perfect together,’ we would say. But Shepard has now spoken about how their relationship isn’t all smiles and rainbows. And what’s more, he doesn’t care about being open about it.

In many ways Shepard and Bell are #couplegoals for a lot of people, not least because they’ve been together for over 12 years now. Both are young, attractive and talented, which obviously doesn’t hurt. And they have two adorable young daughters named Lincoln and Delta. So good things have clearly happened to them.

And Shepard himself is obsessed with cars – his daughter Lincoln is in fact named after one. So it was his dream come true when he was made co-presenter of the car show Top Gear America. It premiered back in 2020, and Shepard definitely hasn’t been quiet about how much fun he has making it.

Shepard appears to have his dream family, dream wife, dream job – but not everything always runs smoothly. Take the incident that happened on Top Gear America. In a February 2021 episode Shepard decided to have an image of him and Bell painted on the side of a van, but it wasn’t a very flattering depiction.

The van mural showed a muscle-bound Shepard holding a sword, while a loincloth-clad Bell clung to his leg. It was inspired by a Chuck Norris movie, but Shepard knew from the get-go that his wife would hate it. He told the website PopCulture that month, “My wife is pretty adamant that’s the one vehicle she doesn’t want in our driveway.”
