Dax Shepard Reveals He 'Neglected' Kristen Bell On Valentine's Day
This year, love was in the air on Valentine's Day earlier this month, as numerous stars and celebrities posted about their loved ones and shared their romantic plans with the world.
Dax Shepard, on the other hand, openly talked about his slightly unconventional Valentine's Day plans from this year during a new episode of his viral podcast, Armchair Expert, and what he said ended up surprising some people, though not everyone, as his treatment towards his wife, Kristen Bell, has been questioned for quite a while now.
As he spoke to co-host Monica Padman, he said, "What happens, for better or worse, is my girls are my valentines." "So I went all out for my girls," he continued. "All I'll say is that someone had a less-than-exciting Valentine's Day versus their anticipation. I put several hours into my valentines on Saturday…All my resources went to the little ones. I definitely neglected my mom and Kristen."
The Internet Slams Dax For His Valentine's Day Plans On Social Media
Once the episode aired, it didn't take long for the actor's comments about Valentine's Day and how his wife, the Frozen star, got the short end of the stick, to go viral. Over the last few years, Dax has been under fire numerous times for his treatment of Kristen and some of the things he says about her, which is likely why the internet was not going to let this instance go.
On social media platforms like Instagram, numerous users ended up slamming him and commenting on the odd vibe surrounding his marriage these days.
"Why is he always publicly talking about what a bad partner he is?" asked a user.
"He has a weird energy about him," wrote another.
"Everything I learn about them is against my will," commented a user, as another wrote, "I really need him to stop talking."
"I like to think he means well, but he just so freaking cringe!" added a user.
