Surprising Arrival: Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden Welcome Second Baby at 51 and 45
Benji Madden and Cameron Diaz have been happily married for over nine years now. They welcomed their first child, a daughter, four years ago and have kept her out of the public eye since then. However, the couple has recently announced the arrival of their second child, a son named Cardinal.
The news came as a surprise to many, as the couple has always been very private about their personal lives. In their joint Instagram announcement, they shared a photo of a piece of artwork with the words “A little bird whispered to me,” revealing the birth of their son.
The couple’s caption read, “We are blessed and excited to announce the birth of our Son, Cardinal Madden. He is awesome and we are all so happy he is here!” They also mentioned that they will not be sharing any photos of their children for their safety and privacy.
This is not the first time the couple has kept their family news under wraps. They tied the knot in 2015 and welcomed their daughter Raddix in 2019, only announcing her birth after the fact. In the birth announcement, Cameron Diaz wrote, “She has instantly captured our hearts and completed our family.”
While the couple is overjoyed with their new addition, they also feel a strong instinct to protect their children’s privacy. They have not shared any details about their son’s birth, but according to a source close to the couple, they went through a lot to have their daughter and consider her a miracle.
However, not everyone is supportive of their decision to have a child at this point in their lives. Some have criticized Cameron’s age, with one Instagram user commenting, ”Who the heck wants to become a parent at 51 yrs old?” But as with any decision, there will always be differing opinions.
Despite any criticism, Benji and Cameron are happy and grateful for their growing family. They have chosen to keep their children out of the public eye, and we should respect their decision.
We wish them all the best as they embark on this new journey as a family of four.
