During a recent episode of his podcast, “Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard<\/a>,” the 51-year-old actor shared with his co-host, Monica Padman, that he had recently had a discussion with his 11-year-old daughter, Delta, about potentially freezing her eggs when she gets older.<\/p>\n “I said, \u2018If you want to, we\u2019ll freeze your eggs when you\u2019re 18. I\u2019ll pay for you to get your eggs frozen so you don\u2019t have to think about that,\u2019” Shepard said, later adding that he was “acknowledging all lucky privilege,” because “obviously this isn\u2019t an option for most people.”<\/p>\n He continued, “But I think \u2026 it would make the most sense. I think they\u2019re going to be wrestling with the same thing every woman is. You\u2019re going to want to do your career, whatever the hell.”<\/p>\n Shepard offered to pay for his 11-year-old daughter to freeze her eggs when she turns 18.

He went on to say she would be a great mom because of how well she takes care of her stuffed animals, adding, “Our life is a traveling circus of Delty\u2019s stuffies.”<\/p>\n “She\u2019s saying she wants to have a baby, and I said, \u2018When do you think you\u2019ll have your first child? When you turn 18?\u2019 I want to be supportive of whatever,” he explained. “I don\u2019t want to plant any seeds that I\u2019d be judgmental or whatever.”\u00a0<\/p>\n He then shared that Delta wasn’t interested in his offer, adding she was “thinking mid-20s” is a good time for her to have kids.<\/p>\n In addition to Delta, Shepard shares a 12-year-old daughter, Lincoln, with his wife, actress Kristen Bell.<\/a><\/p>\n Bell recently received backlash for her anniversary post.
