Cameron Diaz and her musician husband, Benji Madden, are officially a party of four! The happy couple announced the arrival of their son, Cardinal Madden, on Friday with a heartwarming Instagram post bursting with joy.
“We are overflowing with happiness to announce the birth of our son, Cardinal Madden,” they wrote. “He’s everything we’ve ever dreamed of, and we’re ecstatic to welcome him into our family!”
Privacy for the Little One
While Diaz and Madden are clearly smitten with their newborn son, they’ve chosen to prioritise his privacy by not sharing any pictures for now. “We understand the importance of keeping our little one safe and out of the spotlight,” they added with a smiley emoji. “But trust us, he’s absolutely adorable!”
A Heartfelt Message
The couple’s post overflowed with gratitude for their growing family. “We feel incredibly blessed and grateful,” they expressed. “Sending love from all of us to you! Best wishes and a bright afternoon!”
Expanding Their Family
This is the second child for Diaz, 51, and Madden, 45. They welcomed their firstborn, daughter Raddix, in December 2019. The couple has consistently maintained a private family life, keeping their children away from the public eye.
A New Chapter Begins
The arrival of Cardinal marks a new and exciting chapter for Diaz and Madden. Diaz, known for her comedic roles in movies like “There’s Something About Mary” and “Charlie’s Angels,” stepped back from acting after starring in the 2014 musical “Annie.” In recent years, she’s openly discussed her focus on family life.
Fan Frenzy
The news of Cardinal’s birth sent social media into a frenzy. Fans flooded Diaz and Madden’s Instagram with congratulatory messages. Celebrities like Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Nicole Richie (Madden’s sister-in-law) also chimed in with their well wishes.
Looking Ahead
With a growing family, it will be interesting to see how Diaz and Madden navigate parenthood in the public eye. One thing’s for sure: They seem to be radiating pure joy and excitement about their new arrival, and fans are eager to share in their happiness.
