Dax Shepard suspected ‘something fishy’ with wife

They seem to have one of the strongest marriages in Hollywood.

But Dax Shepard admitted he thought ‘something fishy’ was going on when wife Kristen Bell tiptoed around how gorgeous his A Bad Mom’s Christmas co-star Justin Hartley was after asking if they had a prenuptial agreement in place.

The actor, 42, joined The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Thursday and gushed over the handsome This Is Us star, who he described as ‘a revelation.’

‘First of all, couldn’t look better [in the] face; the body… look at that body!’ he fawned at a shirtless pic. 

‘It is an intimidatingly good chassis. And he’s outstanding in the movie, he’s so good he steals the whole movie.’

He revealed that when he expressed his opinion on Hartley to his wife of four years, she replied: ‘”He’s so nice! He’s so nice and fun to be around. He’s really funny! he has a great personality…”

‘And she started saying all these things, and then she goes “Oh and he’s so in love with his girlfriend”.

‘And I just started thinking “She’s never had a friend who was like, a three, and said he loves his girlfriend. Something fishy was going on”.’

Intimidatingly good chassis: The actor, 42, joined The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Thursday and gushed over the handsome This Is Us star, who he described as ‘a revelation.’

But when Ellen pointed out Hartley had been on the show with his fiancee, Shepard animatedly shot back: ‘You drank the same Kool Aid. You’re telling me his fiancee was in the audience, what does that have to do with my marriage?’

He insisted: ‘I wasn’t threatened… I just thought it was really funny that she had so many things outside of how gorgeous he was to say about him.’

The Chips star described another worrying conversation he had with his wife when she asked if the had a prenuptial agreement.

‘She texted me – completely out of the blue, she was at work, and I get a text – “Do we have a prenup?”‘

‘And I’m like “That’s a very disconcerting text to receive. Why would someone be wondering if you have a prenup?”

‘They’re either going to kill you or leave you. It’s not like “I’m going to buy him flowers – do we have a prenup?”

‘First of all, couldn’t look better [in the] face; the body… look at that body!’ he fawned at a shirtless pic. ‘It is an intimidatingly good chassis.’

Elephant in the room: He insisted ‘I wasn’t threatened… I just thought it was really funny that she had so many things outside of how gorgeous he was to say about him.’

‘As it turns out, which is funny, she doesn’t know that we don’t have one,’ he said.

The actor revealed that when they first met, he had a lot more money than her, ‘and I’m crazy about money’.  

‘And as we we’re leading up to get married she said “Honey, would you want to get a prenup? Would that make you feel better?”

‘And in my head I was like “Yes! Please!” And then I said “No I do not want a prenup.”

Not bad: Any ‘magnificent entrance’ garners a donation from Ulta Beauty, with Dax winning $30,000 for his

He grinned as he admitted Bell – who was the voice of Anna in Disney’s Frozen – has gone on to make ‘way more money’ than him 

‘I am a genius. I got in at the basement floor,’ he boasted. ‘I like, signed LeBron James on the playground in elementary school.’

He also admitted the lack of prenup was the reason he was promoting A Bad Mom’s Christmas.

‘I got to get this movie to perform,’ a conceded.

Shepard and Bell have been together for a ten years, but only married for four, having delayed their wedding until California legalized same-sex marriage.

They have two duaghters; Lincoln, four and Delta, two. 

Ouch: The father-of-two bruised his ego pretty badly after crashing on stage in front of Ellen
