The actress earns her first Emmy nomination while husband Dax Shepard commemorates the moment with humor and a bold photo tribute

Kristen Bell has received her first-ever Emmy nomination, earning a nod for Outstanding Actress in a Comedy Series for her lead role in the romantic comedy Nobody Wants This. The recognition marks a major milestone in Bell’s acting career, and her husband, actor and podcast host Dax Shepard, marked the occasion in an unforgettable way.

A Bold Celebration from Dax Shepard

To honor Bell’s Emmy nomination, Shepard posted a risqué photo of her on social media. In the image, Bell is practicing yoga outdoors at their Los Feliz residence, completely nude except for a pair of blue knee-high socks. She is captured mid-pose, performing a downward dog with one leg extended in the air. The post quickly gained widespread attention online but it’s not exactly a scandal. 

In the caption, Shepard humorously suggested that the unconventional photo might be connected to her Emmy-worthy performance. The playful post generated responses from fans and celebrities alike. Actress Nina Dobrev applauded the lighthearted tribute, while Gwyneth Paltrow expressed surprise at the image. One commenter joked about whether Shepard had his wife’s permission for the post. Even though the post wasn’t that wild. 

Kristen Bell’s Reaction to the Nomination

Bell also took to social media to celebrate the moment. She shared a photo of herself alongside Nobody Wants This creator Erin Foster during a Zoom call, both reacting with shock and joy upon hearing the news of their nominations. The image captured the shared excitement between the star and the series’ co-creator.

Dax Shepard added to the celebration by commenting on Bell’s post with a playful remark, encouraging her to spend the day listening to music by Steven Seagal as a reward.

Challenges in the Early Years

Despite their eventual compatibility, the couple experienced some turbulence in the early days of their romance. Shepard, who had previously been in an open relationship and struggled with substance abuse, admitted that there were trust issues. He described those years as being filled with tension and jealousy, largely due to his past lifestyle. 

Shepard discussed these early relationship struggles during an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, explaining that his history gave Bell legitimate reasons to be wary. Nonetheless, the couple worked through those difficulties and have remained a prominent Hollywood pair. Especially compared to what famous couples are up to these days. 

Recognition for a Long Career

Kristen Bell’s Emmy nomination represents a significant achievement in her career. Known for her performances in Veronica Mars, The Good Place, and Frozen, Bell has long been a familiar face in both television and film. This new recognition marks a professional high point and affirms her standing as a leading comedic actress.

As fans celebrate Bell’s success and Shepard’s spirited way of supporting her, the couple continues to share their trademark mix of humor and honesty, showing that their bond remains as strong and entertaining as ever.
