Cameron Diaz has dated several celebrities, but never thought she’d get married until she started dating her now-husband, Benji Madden, in May 2014.
“[Marriage] was the biggest thing I’ve done in my 40s, and it opened me up in different ways,” Diaz told Harper’s Bazaar in May 2016, 16 months after she and the rockstar tied the knot. “It’s pretty awesome. I didn’t think it was something I’d do, and I don’t know if I’d have done it if I hadn’t met my husband. It was a surprise.”
While the duo’s relationship was unexpected, they quickly became one of Hollywood’s strongest couples. Diaz and Madden also expanded their family, welcoming daughter Raddix in December 2019.
“I love being a mother,” Diaz said during an April 2020 YouTube interview. “It’s the best, best, best part of my life. I’m so grateful and so happy and it’s the best thing ever, and I’m so lucky to do it with Benj and we’re having the best time. I’m thrilled. I can’t believe it.”
Nearly four years later, she and Madden secretly welcomed baby No. 2, a son named Cardinal.
In May 2026, the couple announced the arrival of their third child together, son Nautas.
