Dax Shepard on how he opened about drug relapse with daughters; 'Daddy became bad boy'

The Ranch star Dax Shepard quite recently revealed how he opened up about his drug relapse to his two daughters, Delta and Lincoln. It so happened that during an interview with the host of In Fact podcast, namely Chelsea Clinton, while touching upon how Dax Shepard's kids learned about his relapse, he said that she spoke to them in the third person. He can be heard saying that "They knew when I relapsed. We explained, 'Well, Daddy was on these pills for his surgery and then Daddy was a bad boy and he started getting his own pills,'" Dax said. "Yeah, we tell them the whole thing." One section of the interview sees the 46-year-old actor revealed that Dax Shepard's wife, Kristen Bell, and he are quite honest with their children by saying that "Yeah, we tell them the whole thing." While on the subject of the level of awareness that the actor's children have, he said that "They know that Dad goes to an AA meeting every Tuesday and Thursday. One of the cuter moments was — I wanna say my oldest daughter was 3 — said, 'Where are you going?' I said, 'I'm going to AA.' She said, 'Why do you have to go?' I said, 'Because I'm an alcoholic and if I don't go there, then I'll drink and then I'll be a terrible dad.'"
