Fans Say Kristen Bell’s Anniversary Post To Dax Shepard Was Just Plain Weird

Actress Kristen Bell has encountered significant backlash following a controversial message about her husband, Dax Shepard, that prompted concern from fans and television networks alike. The "Good Place" star recently marked their 12th wedding anniversary by sharing a heartfelt image of them together, yet her caption raised eyebrows. “Happy 12th wedding anniversary to the man who once told me, ‘I would never kill you. Many men have killed their wives. Even though I’m heavily incentivized to kill you, I never would,’” she wrote on October 18. Commenters swiftly expressed their discomfort, with nearly 29,000 users questioning whether the post was meant to be humorous. Comments ranged from disapproval to genuine concern, sparking a conversation about relationship dynamics during awareness month. While some defended the couple's humor, a representative from the National Network to End Domestic Violence criticized the message for trivializing the serious issues victims face. Though Bell has yet to directly address the criticism, she has seemingly acknowledged the surrounding controversy.
