The couple wed in January 2015 and welcomed daughter Raddix via surrogate in December 2019. They announced the news in early January 2020 with a joint Instagram post.
“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,” they wrote. “She has instantly captured our hearts and completed our family.”
“They went through so much to get to this point,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in January 2020. “Cameron feels like this baby is truly a miracle.”
Another source said at the time, “Cameron and Benji had been trying to have a baby for a long time. There were disappointments along the way, so it was difficult and stressful at times. But they say it was a price worth paying. They feel beyond blessed.”
In March 2024, the couple announced the news of Cardinal’s arrival in another joint Instagram post.

In January 2025, Diaz spoke about how becoming a mom had changed her perspective on her Hollywood career while promoting Netflix comedy Back in Action. The movie marked her return to acting after a 10-year absence.
“You’re a different person after you have children, after marriage, after building a life,” Diaz told E! News. “Everything changes, your whole perspective, your whole world, your understanding of it. For me, I never made a movie before with a family. So, all of the boxes change that need to be checked off. That’s the most important, and then everything else has to line up to support that.”
