The lifestyles of Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden include diaper duties again.
After all, the Charlie's Angels alum and the Good Charlotte rocker welcomed their second baby, a son named Cardinal, they shared in a joint Instagram post on March 22.
"We are blessed and excited to announce the birth of our Son, Cardinal Madden," the couple wrote. "He is awesome and We are all so happy he is here!"
Cameron and Benji declined to share photos of their baby for his "safety and privacy," though they assured fans that he's "really cute."
"We are feeling so blessed and grateful," they added. "Sending much love from our fam to yours. Best wishes and Good Afternoon!!"
The There's Something About Mary star and the musician are already parents to 4-year-old daughter Raddix, who they welcomed in late 2019.
Since becoming a mom, Cameron has shifted her focus from her acting career to family. As she previously explained, "When you're doing something that you know and you've done well and you know how it works—and it's consumed your whole life for so long—it's kind of a nice thing to kind of go, 'You know what? Let me just step back for a second, take a look at what the whole picture looks like for me, and what are the things that I could do better and be more engaged with that would make me feel more whole?'"
"Everybody only has 100 percent," she told CBS News in 2022. "You always have to figure out how you're going to divide that 100 percent to spread it to all that parts of your life that matter."
Story developing...
To back at Cameron and Benji's love story, keep reading.
One month before tying the knot, Cameron Diaz flashed what appeared to be an engagement ring from Benji Madden.
Surprise! The two tie the knot at the actress' Beverly Hills home.
The newlyweds were all loved up watching the Lakers play the Wizards in L.A.
Benji gets a tattoo of his Cameron's name on his chest.
The There's Something About Mary star opens up on Andy Cohen's Radio Andy show about how she and Benji met.
"The first thing I said when I first met my husband was, 'He's hot,'" she says. "How come I didn't know this before? We had never been in the same circle."
Cameron adds that they formally met when she hosted a dinner party at her house with his brother Joel Madden and sister-in-law Nicole Richie. Joel asked if he could invite Benji. Cameron says, "Then I saw him again. Wait a second, still hot!"
Nicole Richie's dad Lionel Richie, husband Joel Madden, sister-in-law Cameron and brothers-in-law Josh (on the left) and Benji showed up to support her Harlow 1960 x REVOLVE launch.
The two vacation in Italy again.
"Getting married to him was the best thing that ever happened to me," she tells InStyle about Benji. "My husband's the best. He's the greatest human being, and he's my great partner. Marriage is certainly hard, and it's a lot of work. You need somebody who's willing to do the work with you, because there's no 60-40 in marriage. It's 50-50, period. All the time."
Cameron and Benji announce on Instagram that they have welcomed a baby girl, Raddix Madden.
"I'm off line mostly these days, just working, painting, making things and doing family life, but I have grown to like my little tradition of coming back on special occasions to show love to my Queen," Benji wrote on Instagram. "so today, it's a very Happy Birthday to my beautiful wife, best friend, best partner in everything, ride or die, greatest Mom to our little girl, @Avaline wine boss, family chef, advisor, collaborator and everything else."
