Cameron Diaz is back in action on the big screen — and her husband, Benji Madden, is her No. 1 fan.
“This is my QUEEN 
I celebrate this BADASS WOMAN. Wife, mommy, friend, partner, boss and lover,” Madden, 45, wrote via Instagram on Friday, January 17. “We just hit 10 YEARS married on January 5th and every year only gets more fulfilling. It’s special. Never perfect — always real [and] always reliable.”
He added, “Every day getting to have my best friend with me ride or die. What a beautiful life — I am GRATEFUL!!! 
and ANOTHER MiLESTONE happening TOMORROW!!! We are SO happy to see you…. BACK IN ACTION!! … Congrats baby!!
.”
Madden further encouraged his social media followers to “go watch” Back in Action on Netflix, which stars 52-year-old Diaz and Jamie Foxx, who previously shared the screen in 2014’s Annie.
Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden’s Relationship Timeline
Madden also uploaded a sweet pic of the couple posing on a beach. In the fresh-faced selfie, Diaz wrapped her arm around the Good Charlotte rocker while he snapped the photo.
Back in Action is Diaz’s first acting role in a decade. She previously took a step back from Hollywood in 2018 to focus on her family. Diaz and Madden, who got married in 2015, welcomed daughter Raddix in 2019. Son Cardinal followed in 2024.
“Being a wife and a mother has been the most … fulfilling part of my life so far,” Diaz said during a February 2021 appearance on SiriusXM’s Quarantined With Bruce show. “I waited for this … so I didn’t have any distractions. Like, I can’t imagine [working now]. As a mother with my child, to have to be on a movie set that takes 14 hours, 16 hours, of my time away from her — I just couldn’t.”
She continued at the time, “I personally feel like I wouldn’t be the mom that I am now had I chosen to do that at any other time in my life.”

During her film hiatus, Diaz felt like she was “trying to stay alive just like every other mother.”
“I’m just trying to keep it going,” Diaz explained in an Instagram video shared via Netflix’s account on Wednesday, January 15.
A source exclusively told Us Weekly earlier this month that Madden “cheered her on every step of the way” when she decided to star in Back in Action.
“They’re a team,” a second insider told Us. “They’re always lifting each other up and prioritizing each other’s happiness. Benji’s a very hands-on dad and extremely helpful.”
Back in Action is now streaming on Netflix.
