Kristen Bell Says Dax Shepard Marriage Takes Work

“Frozen” star Kristen Bell opened up about her 4-year marriage to actor Dax Shepard, admitting to Us Weekly Wednesday their relationship “takes a lot of work.”

One thing is certain, they don’t agree on most things. But she does respect his opinion. “I do disagree with him on 90 percent of the issues on the planet,” she said. “But we have really wonderful, intense valued conversations about things, and I always see his point, even if I disagree. It’s hard to do.”

He’ll do anything to get the 38-year-old’s attention. He is a comedian, after all, she noted.

“It is not easy to work around another human being, but if you commit to it, you can pretty much permanently respect that person, but then it doesn’t really matter if you disagree because you still respect that person,” she told the magazine. “But on a daily basis, he just makes me laugh all the time. He’s obsessed with attention, so he’s constantly making jokes to try to get me to give him more attention or to get me to giggle. And you know, he was a stand up comedian, so I’m living with a comedian.”

When arguments happen in the household, the couple using it as a learning experience for their children, 4-year-old Lincoln and 2-year-old Delta.

She recalled an example that occurred in their house when they argued about bringing the groceries into the house.

“We always make an effort to make them see. So the next morning I’ll say, ‘Hey, you know what Dad, I’m really sorry I was so frustrated yesterday when you were bringing in the groceries. I could have had a nicer tone in my voice.’ And he would say, ‘Thanks for saying that, Mom, I know you were stressed.’ And we let our kids see how to solve conflict and that was his idea,” she said.

Bell, 38, and Shepard, 42, are arguably one of Hollywood’s best couples. The same could have been said about “Mom” actress Anna Faris and “Jurassic World” star Chris Pratt.

The couple issued a breakup statement to social media Sunday. “Anna and I are sad to announce we are legally separating. We tried hard for a long time, and we’re really disappointed,” the statement on Pratt’s Facebook page read. “Our son has two parents who love him very much and for his sake we want to keep this situation as private as possible moving forward. We still have love for each other, will always cherish our time together and continue to have the deepest respect for one another.”

They have not spoken out since announcing their split. Rumors swirled the reason for the breakup was because Pratt cheated on Faris with “Passengers” co-star Jennifer Lawrence. Other gossip claimed Faris wanted more children but Pratt didn’t.
