On Friday morning, Cameron Diaz had a big announcement to share on Instagram. As it turns out, the Hollywood actress and her husband Benji Madden recently welcomed a baby girl into the world.
« Happy New Year from the Maddens! We are so happy, blessed and grateful to begin this new decade by announcing the birth of our daughter, Raddix Madden, » the couple shared in a post. « She has instantly captured our hearts and completed our family. »
In their announcement, the parents vowed to protect their daughter’s privacy. At the same time, they couldn’t hide their joy at a new family member.
« While we are overjoyed to share this news, we also feel a strong instinct to protect our little one’s privacy, » the couple shared. « 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. »

« Getting married to him was the best thing that ever happened to me, » she told Instyle. « My husband’s the best. 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. »
Not to be outdone, Benji appears madly in love with his leading lady. In a rare Instagram post featuring his wife, the Good Charlotte member praised Cameron for being herself.
« There’s so much to write, so many things that make me so proud of you and how special you are, » he wrote. « Thank you for being the best friend and partner to me and taking this journey of marriage. »
« I just kind of like how things unravel and life kind of reveals itself to you. And I’ve just never been in the place where I was like, ‘Right now is the time I’m supposed to have a baby,' » Cameron previously shared with Chelsea Handler. « But I do want my own family eventually, however that comes to me, whether it’s through adoption or [through another method]. »
Congratulations to the couple on their happy news.
