Meanwhile, last week, Bell spoke about how she and Shepard, whom she married in 2013 and with whom she shares two daughters, are working through his lapse in sobriety.
The actor and podcast hos, 45, admitted last month that he had relapsed and started using the painkiller Oxycodone after being sober for 16 years following a motorcycle crash in August.
And in an interview with Ellen DeGeneres that aired last Wednesday, Bell, who married Shepard in 2013, explained that he had shared with her that he was ‘faltering’ and needed to do some ’emotional work’ to find out why he relapsed.
‘He’s addicted to evolving,’ the star of Frozen told Ellen. ‘He was like, ‘I don’t want to risk this family and I did, so let’s put new things in place to make sure it doesn’t happen again.”
