Kristen Bell Spends Mother’s Day on a Kid-Free Spa Day at Home

The tradition, set up by Dax Shepard, signals a shift toward giving mothers real downtime.

Overview

  • Bell shared an Instagram video of an at-home spa day with fellow moms, explaining that the dads took the kids so the group could rest.
  • She wrote that six years ago Shepard asked what she truly wanted for the holiday and he has repeated that plan every year since.
  • Her caption contrasted norms by saying Father’s Day often involves solo leisure, while Mother’s Day can still include work like breakfast cleanups.
  • Friends, including actor Justine Lupe, joined for massages, pedicures, and pastries, and fans praised the idea in emotional comments.
  • Bell and Shepard have two daughters, Lincoln and Delta, and coverage also noted a separate anniversary-post backlash last year that Shepard addressed on his podcast in April.
