February 9, 2021 The most recent episode of “Top Gear America” was co-hosted by Dax Shepard, who decided to have an image of him and his wife painted on the side of a van.
When promoting the episode, he explained, ″[The van] was inspired by ‘Breaker! Breaker!’ a Chuck Norris movie. I’ve always loved those 70s muraled up vans. I’ve wanted one. And my wife is pretty adamant that’s the one vehicle she doesn’t want in our driveway.”
Then mentioned the reaction by his wife, Kristen Bell:
“But she wasn’t thrilled with the level of ‘female empowerment’ that was depicted in that mural... Understandably. And my kind of excuse was we had to honor the era in which this was popular. It didn’t fly.”
Last August, Shepard revealed on his podcast that he relapsed after 16 years of sobriety. In September, Bell told Ellen DeGeneres that the two were returning to couple’s therapy.
“I will continue to stand by him because he’s very, very worth it,” she told the host.
She also continues to defend their relationship on Instagram:
