Cameron Diaz Announces Birth of Daughter With Husband Benji Madden

Surprise! Cameron Diaz is a mom.

This is the first child for both Diaz and 40-year-old Madden.

“We are so happy, blessed and grateful to begin this new decade by announcing the birth of our daughter, Raddix Madden,” Diaz’s post reads. “She has instantly captured our hearts and completed our family. While we are overjoyed to share this news, we also feel a strong instinct to protect our little one’s privacy. So we won’t be posting pictures or sharing any more details, other than the fact that she is really really cute!! Some would even say RAD :)”

Diaz and Madden have been married since January 2015. Diaz has talked about potentially having kids before, and has said she wasn’t particularly looking to be a mother before she married the Good Charlotte guitarist.

In a rare interview in August, Diaz told InStyle that Madden was the best thing that’s ever happened to her.

“Getting married to him was the best thing that ever happened to me. My husband’s the best,” she said. “He’s the greatest human being, and he’s my great partner. Marriage is certainly hard, and it’s a lot of work. You need somebody who’s willing to do the work with you, because there’s no 60-40 in marriage. It’s 50-50 period. All the time.”

“I don’t know if I was ready [when I got married], but I knew Benji was special,” she added. “He’s just a good man. There’s no bulls**t. It’s really refreshing. I’m grateful for him.”
