Diaz has been open about motherhood and the joy it has brought to her life. In an episode of the GOOP’s podcast, she shared how becoming a mother changed her perspective on ageing, saying, “It’s totally opened up. I’m excited. I’ve got 50 or 60 years to go – I want to live to be 110 since I’ve got a young child.”

She also praised Madden as a father, calling him the “best dad” during an appearance on Jimmy Fallon’s late-night talk show.

Congratulations to Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden for the arrival of baby Cardinal!
