Bell – who has been married to Shepard since 2013 – didn’t say whether daughter Delta, five, or Lincoln, seven, was responsible for the sweet note.
She joined in the praise in her caption, writing: ‘Today is my husband’s 16th sobriety birthday. My daughter woke him up with this sign, and a sketch of the one and only Ronald Weasley(absolutely random, and also perfect).’
‘Happy birthday Daxy. Thank you for dedicating your life to the hard and wonderful work of sobriety, so that we could share it with you.

Dax and Bell have been open about how sobriety is a constant commitment.
‘I know how much effort has to be put into staying sober,’ Kristen told People in 2018.
‘I don’t mean that to be like, I come home and see him shaking and looking at a whiskey ad or something, [but] there are different elements you have to deal with when you’re staying sober. It’s a ton of mental control and evolution.’
