You know those couples who seem to have it all figured out? Well, Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard are about as real as it gets. In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, this Hollywood power couple isn’t exactly having a spa day. Instead, they’re navigating the chaos of family quarantine just like the rest of us. Let’s dive into what life looks like for them behind closed doors.
Quarantine Life: The Honest Truth
During an Instagram Live session with Katie Couric on March 30, Dax, now 45, opened up about how their family dynamic has shifted during these unprecedented times. “We’re getting along great with the kids, and we’re doing well with our adult friends,” he shared, referring to their daughters, Lincoln, 7, and Delta, 5. But don’t be fooled by the calm exterior. Dax couldn’t help but joke, “It’s been a little stressful for momma and dada.”
When Love Meets Quarantine
And then Kristen chimed in with her signature humor, dropping a truth bomb that many couples can relate to. “We’ve been at each other’s throats so badly,” she admitted, laughing. “This is actually the closest we’ve been in days because we’ve found each other revolting.” Can we get an amen from all the couples out there trying to keep their sanity intact?

Before Dax signed off, he couldn’t resist teasing Kristen about her wholesome image. “America’s sweetheart has some serious character flaws,” he joked. Classic Dax, always keeping it real.
Finding Balance in Chaos
Katie Couric, ever the thoughtful interviewer, suggested that Kristen and Dax find ways to carve out some alone time amidst the chaos of parenting during quarantine. Kristen shot back with her characteristic wit, “He’s too big, Katie. Too loud and too big. He’s everywhere!” Can you blame her? Sometimes, a little space is exactly what you need.
Despite the challenges, Kristen reassured fans that their daughters are handling the situation remarkably well. “They haven’t asked a ton of questions,” she noted. “As a parent, you can see it in their eyes when they’re wondering about things but don’t know how to voice it. So we’ve been very open about explaining the disease and giving them the chance to ask questions, though it hasn’t happened much. It’s kind of strange, but they’re coping just fine.”
Earlier this month, Kristen shared a playful moment from their quarantine life when her youngest daughter, Delta, claimed to have discovered the cure for coronavirus. “Well, folks, she’s done it,” Kristen wrote in the caption. “Don’t get me wrong, she has more trials to do to assure its efficacy, but my 5-year-old just came into my bedroom with a vial full of colored water and told me, ‘I just made the vaccine for coronavirus!’”
As we all continue to navigate this new normal, one thing is clear: Kristen and Dax are staying grounded and keeping their sense of humor intact. Here’s hoping they stay healthy—and maybe even a little sane—during this time.
