Cher makes brutal dig to Dax Shepard about marriage with Kristen Bell
Cher wasn't holding back when offering her opinion on Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell's marriage.
Shepard and Bell got married in 2013 after first meeting in 2007, and later went on to have two daughters together.
The actors are very upfront when it comes to discussing their relationship, and it has sometimes got them into a bit of controversy.
Last year, the Frozen star spoke on the topic of infidelity, suggesting that she 'wouldn't bat an eyelid' if her husband cheated on her, because they're 'monkeys' and 'both attracted to other people'.

Meanwhile, Shepard has made it incredibly clear that the rumours claiming they might be swingers are untrue, even getting a few jokes out of the situation, too.
However, it seems as if legendary musician Cher has a few thoughts about their marriage, which she made clear while appearing on the couple's podcast recently.
Cher and Bell became friends after starring in the 2010 film, Burlesque, which also starred Christina Aguilera and Stanley Tucci.
Speaking on the Armchair Expert podcast, Cher was quick to remind Shepard that he's 'lucky' and that Bell is 'definitely the better half'.
You'd hope that most men in relationships with women would admit that their other half is the better looking, and Shepherd graciously agreed, before hitting Cher with a funny riposte.
"Who would you like to see Kristen with?" he asked The Witches of Eastwick star. "Who would be your dream partner for her? 'Cause I know you think she could be better, and I don't disagree. Who would be your pick?"
The 'Turn Back Time' singer then responded: "I don’t know!"
"He's being self-deprecating right now," Bell added. "She's never thought about that."
The Without a Paddle star then said: "I just want to know who she thinks your dream catch would be. There’s some people I have that I think are good."
However, it seems as if Cher does at least trust Bell to make her own decisions, as she added: "The truth is, I trust her. So you must have something that I don't see."
She also complimented his parenting, calling him 'a good dad' to which Bell responded that he is 'the best dad there ever was'.
Shepard added: "I'll tell you the thing that you should like about me — I'm not threatened by her shining. The shinier she gets the better."
Cher also agreed that she thinks the same about her partner, the rapper Alexander AE Edwards, who is nearly 40 years her junior.
Bell concluded: "Trust me, he's a slow burn, but you're gonna learn to love him. He's almost too good for me."
