Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard are ringing in the new year with love and laughter, sharing adorable photos together on Instagram after facing criticism for their anniversary post last year.
Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard looked more in love than ever as they celebrated the start of a new year. The couple, who began dating in 2007, shared photos of themselves cozying up together and having a blast with friends and family on Instagram.
Shepard, 51, shared a post full of happy snaps from their New Year’s celebrations, captioning it, “Bonkers fun New Years. Massive gratitude for The Richardsons and @justbobbidotcom 💙💙💙 (also we’re laughing because our daughter had all four fingers over all three lenses and yet somehow it took! May all of 2026 go this way:)”
Bell, 45, also shared similar photos from the same celebrations on her own Instagram account, simply captioning it, “Family 2026 🎉🎊🎈.”
The couple’s loved-up post comes after Bell sparked backlash last year for a controversial anniversary post. Fans were divided when Bell uploaded a post praising Shepard for promising to never “kill” her, with some finding it offensive and others defending it as a joke.
Despite the drama, Bell and Shepard have been open about their relationship journey, including their rocky beginnings when they briefly went their separate ways. In a 2017 interview with PopSugar, Bell revealed that Shepard had broken up with her early on in their relationship, but later came back to her.
“He called me and he was like, ‘I don’t know what I was thinking. I was dating someone else but they’re just not as interesting as you, and I don’t know what I’m doing,’ and he came back,” Bell said.
Bell and Shepard have two daughters together, Lincoln and Delta, and have been married since 2013. The couple has been praised for their honesty and humor about their relationship, and their latest photos are a testament to their enduring love.
