Let’s talk about Kristen Bell for a moment. This incredible actress and singer has been dazzling audiences for over two decades, but when she steps off the stage and into her home, things get real. Her two daughters, Lincoln and Delta, have no problem dishing out some tough love. In a candid chat with E! News on November 7, Kristen joked about how her kids’ rapid-fire insults keep her grounded. “They can throw so many zingers at me in such a short amount of time,” she said, laughing. And honestly, who wouldn’t appreciate a little humility after all the fame?
At 42, Kristen shares her life with her husband, Dax Shepard, and their two daughters, Lincoln, who’s 9, and Delta, who’s 7. While Kristen’s career is impressive—over 100 acting credits and even a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame—her kids remind her that she’s just Mom when they’re together. “I walk in the door, and boom! They’re ready to take me down a notch,” she joked. If her life were made into a movie, Kristen thinks it’d probably be called "My Kids Keep Me Grounded." And hey, this isn’t the first time she’s opened up about her daughters' brutally honest feedback.
Family Life: Honest Moments That Bring Kristen Back to Earth
Now, let’s dive deeper into Kristen’s family life. As a mom of two, she knows firsthand that kids don’t sugarcoat their opinions. Kristen shared a hilarious story about her eldest daughter, Lincoln, during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! back in 2016. She tried to watch her hit Disney movie, Frozen, with Lincoln when she was home sick from school. But about 15 minutes in, Lincoln didn’t hold back. “Mommy, I think you should turn this off,” Lincoln bluntly told her. Ouch, right? But hey, that’s kids for you!

Eventually, though, Lincoln and Delta warmed up to Frozen, especially as the sequel came out in 2019. Kristen admitted that while her daughters liked the original movie, they weren’t exactly head-over-heels for it at first. “I think it’s in their DNA to reject their parents,” she joked to People magazine. But as the movie became a cultural phenomenon, they started embracing it more, even dressing up as the characters occasionally. Still, Kristen can’t help but laugh about how much they adore Elsa, voiced by Idina Menzel, over her own character, Anna.
Kristen’s Priorities: Family Over Fame
Despite her successful career, Kristen is clear about what truly matters to her. In a heartfelt interview with CBS in 2016, she reflected on her priorities. “When I think about being on my deathbed, I don’t picture some random movie or TV show I worked on,” she said. “What I’ll remember is my family.” Spending time with Dax and their daughters is what brings Kristen the most joy. It’s a reminder that no matter how big your career gets, family is the anchor that keeps you connected to what’s truly important.
Final Thoughts: The Bell-Shepard Family Dynamic
Kristen Bell’s life is a perfect blend of fame and family. While her career keeps her busy, her daughters remind her every day that there’s more to life than the spotlight. Whether it’s Lincoln telling her to turn off Frozen or Delta sharing her honest opinions, Kristen cherishes these moments. They’re what keep her grounded and connected to the people who matter most. As she often says, when it comes down to it, family is the foundation of everything.
