Kristen Bell Suffers Jujitsu Injury Caused By 8-Year-Old Daughter’s “Sharp Buck Teeth"

Kristen Bell will have trouble forgetting this injury anytime soon.

The 42-year-old recently showed off a bright pink cut on her nose on Instagram, revealing it was the result of a little martial arts encounter with her daughter Delta. 

"Minor jujitsu injury... took some teeth to the nose," Kristen captioned the May 16 post. "Will recover. You should see the other guy!!!! (she is 8, the fruit of my loins, and has bid, sharp, buck teeth)."

Kristen and husband Dax Shepard—who are also parents to daughter Lincoln, 10—generally keep their kids out of the spotlight and use emojis to cover their faces on social media posts. However, the pair have given insight into their family life—and the way Delta and Lincoln keep them on their toes.

"The amount of insults that they can hurl at me in a very short period of time," Kristen told E! News' Francesca Amiker in November, "it really brings me back down to earth."

In fact, after a night on the red carpet, a trip home is all it takes to bring The Good Place star down to earth. 

"I come home and they will just they'll pull the rug out from under you so quickly," she added, joking in there were a movie made about her life, it should be called "My Kids Keep Me Grounded."

Kristen and Dax have always been very open with their kids about topics that other parents might shy away from—like sex and drugs—even when there are unintended consequences.

"We've always been really honest with our kids and I had never really done any drugs and I wanted to try mushrooms for my 40th birthday," she told Jimmy Kimmel in November 2022. "So my husband got them for me and I tried it. And we told our kids about it."

This, of course, resulted in Kristen's kids telling their grandmother.

"I overheard my daughter taking to my mom—to grandma—going, 'So anyway, so mom really wanted to try mushrooms, so," the Frozen actress continued. "And I just walked by and I was like, 'Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.' For some reason I'm more worried about telling my mom that than telling my daughter."

Kristen and Dax don't why away from the tougher topics, too—including the Armchair Expert host's struggles with addiction.

"I know it's shocking, but I talk to my kids about drugs and the fact that their daddy is an addict and he's in recovery," the Forgetting Sarah Marshall actress told Real Simple in February. "And we talk about sex."

"There are all these 'hard' topics that don't have to be," she continued, "if you give the person on the other end your vulnerability and a little bit of credit."
