Kristen Bell Admits Her Daughter Innocently Offered to Help Bury Her Grandfather

Kristen Bell keeps it cool and cozy as she makes her way inside of a Broadway play alongside her The Good Place creator Michael Schur on Wednesday evening (January 29) in New York City.

The 39-year-old actress was coming from a taping of Late Night with Seth Meyers, where she talked about The Good Place grand finale, barely surviving spicy chocolate with her husband and what it’s like to eat meals with her kids.

Kristen also revealed the “beautiful” and hilarious way her daughter wanted to say goodbye to her grandfather after he passed away. After explaining that her little one had adapted a “practical sense about the world” due to her and husband Dax Shepard’s honest approach towards parenting, she shared that her daughter expressed interest in helping to bury him.

“Their grandfather was dying—and he’s already passed, but while he was dying, my little girl was in the back and said, ‘So when papa dies… Are we gonna come to Oregon with you?’” Kristen, who is mom to Lincoln, 6, and Delta, 5, explained to host Seth. “And I was like, ‘Yeah, you’ll come.’ And she was like, ‘Okay. Do I need to bring my shovel? Because I have a garden set.’ And I said, ‘Why would you pack your shovel, honey?’ She goes, ‘Well, I want to help bury him. Where do we do it? The side of the house? Or…’ Like, so practical and wanted to help.”
