Unlike your typical celebrity marriage, Dax and Kristen have made it a point to tell the world how being in a successful relationship takes patience, practice, and a lot of work. "One thing I like to reiterate is that we've done a lot of work on our relationship. We're very focused on staying together," Kristen said in an interview. "We've made a choice to love each other but realize relationships are a lot of work. I think it's responsible to be honest about that. We earned our relationship, which we're very proud of."
Dax had similar things to say, getting real about just how hard they fight to make sure their relationship stays strong while speaking with Good Housekeeping: "There were hurdles, things she didn't trust about me, things I didn't trust about her. I just kept going back to 'This person has the thing I want, and I have to figure out how we can exist peacefully.' So we started [seeing a therapist together] right away."
