Dax Shepard Says He'll Fund Egg Freezing for 11-Year-Old Daughter at 18

He described the offer on his podcast as supportive, noting the option reflects his financial privilege.

Overview

  • Shepard recounted the exchange on the Jan. 5 Armchair Expert episode after Delta told him she "can't wait to have a baby."
  • He told listeners he would cover egg freezing when she turns 18 so fertility timing would feel less urgent.
  • He estimated her first child might come between ages 35 and 45; he said Delta called that "too old" and prefers the mid-20s.
  • He acknowledged the offer reflects "luck and privilege" and referenced the common tension between building a career and starting a family.
  • Reporting cites Shepard’s account only, with no separate statements from wife Kristen Bell or their daughters Lincoln, 12, and Delta, 11.
