Kristen Bell and her The Woman In The House costar Benjamin Levy Aguilar appeared in high spirits as they enjoyed lunch at Griffith Park in Los Feliz on Thursday.

She kept her bright blonde hair styled in loose waves as she walked over to a park bench sipping an iced coffee on the sunny afternoon.

Their conversation appeared light-hearted as the Filthy Rich star, 29, toted a large bag with their food and smiled at Bell as they made their way to a tree-shaded spot.

The eight-episode Netflix series, starring the mother-of-two, centers around a heartbroken woman (Bell) named Anna, who feels her life is going on without her.
Her world turns upside down after a handsome neighbor moves in across the street and she ‘starts to see a light at the end of the tunnel until she witnesses a gruesome murder,’ according to Deadline.

The Good Place star is married to fellow actor Dax Shepard; the duo have two daughters: Lincoln, seven, and Delta, six.
Earlier this month, she opened up about her husband’s drug relapse following 16 years of sobriety in the May issue of Self, which is dedicated to Mental Health Awareness Month.
She said that after admitting that he was battling a dependence on painkillers, Dax, 46, gave her ‘full privilege … to call him out on anything,’ telling her: ‘You can drug-test me whenever you want. I’m going to buy them. I’m going to have them in the house.
‘If you ever feel nervous, I want you to have access to this and I’ll do it, no questions asked.’

Dax first publicly revealed his relapse last September in an episode of his podcast, Armchair Expert, admitting that his problems had started around six months before when he injured his hand and shoulder, and then were exacerbated by a motorcycle accident.
He was prescribed painkillers, but eventually came to buy oxycontin when he ran out. He said he noticed he started ‘getting shadier and shadier,’ and ‘felt so terrible about the lying.’
‘And I’m lying to other people and I know I have to quit,’ he confessed. ‘And I start getting really scared, and I’m starting to feel really lonely. And I just have this enormous secret.’

Though he admitted to ‘gaslighting’ his wife and his co-host, Monica Padman, at the time, Kristen told Self he came clean ‘so quickly.’
‘It was like, ‘I did something that I don’t want to do. I’m going down a bad road. I want help. I want your help,’ she recalled.
Though he encouraged Kristen to drug-test him if she wanted, she says she hasn’t resorted to that yet.

Kristen added that it helps their marriage that they regularly go for couples therapy — something she readily admits so fans don’t get fooled into thinking there is some ‘fantasy’ of a perfect relationship.
‘I don’t want any young person feeling like there’s a fantasy out there that they just have to find the right person,’ she said. ‘That’s not how humans work. People change. People grow… Relationships aren’t a puzzle. You cannot pick them up and put them down.’
She has also been candid about her own mental health, and has spoken out on numerous occasions about suffering from depression and anxiety.
