Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard 'kicked out' of airport for trying to sleep after 9-hour delay

Flight delays are something that everyone can admit to being inconvenienced by, and when that means you’ve nowhere to sleep - why not just sleep on the floor?

Regardless of whether you are a simple commoner, businessman or celebrity, we’ve all had the misfortune of a flight being delayed even a little.

But when you’re a celebrity, you don’t expect to be thrown out of an airport for just trying to catch some z’s during a very long delay.

This is exactly what happened to Kristen Bell and her husband Dax Shepard, who were unfortunate enough to be ‘stranded’ with their two kids after a whopping nine-hour delay at the Boston Logan International Airport.

After the family realised that they would have to wait for so long without access to a hotel, they decided to spend $600 on pillows and sheets in order to make a DIY bed on the floor of the airport so that they could take a nap.

According to Bell, who took to Instagram to tell the story, they couldn’t find a hotel within 50 miles and didn’t have another choice.

Bell wrote: “Stranded at the Boston airport, 9 hours of delays.”

“We made quite a home here,” the ‘Good Place’ actress captioned a photo of herself with a toothbrush in her mouth, whilst at the airport.

Her husband also made his own post on the social media platform of a reel, which he jokingly noted that there were “ZERO vacancies in the greater Boston area.”

In the video, Bell could be seen joking that she was making the airport her home, and that she must take her shoes off 'when I’m in my bedroom', as she went to get into her makeshift bed.

Then Shepard can be seen lying on the floor with a neck pillow and blanket as they discussed the money it cost to create their own dwellings.

“Could have been a really nice hotel, but they’re all taken,” Shepard said.

To which Bell replied: “It’s $600 a night to stay at Boston International Airport.”

But they were soon 'kicked out' by security, though a friend came to save the day and let the family stay the night.

“Thankfully we found friends of friends who offered us their attics and accepted us at 1 am!!!!!!” she captioned another picture of beds at her friend’s place.

Instagram users were shocked at the celebrity family was thrown out, commenting that: “I truly don’t mean this to be mean but I didn’t think this stuff happened to rich people,”

Another praised the pair for being so real: “I love that you guys are just normal f—king people.”
