Well, hold onto your rocking chairs, folks, because Cameron Diaz just threw us all a curveball we didn’t see coming.

That’s right; at the fabulous age of 51, our beloved Cameron has become a mom again!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Together with her husband, the ever-youthful Benji Madden, aged 45, they welcomed their newest bundle of joy—a son named Cardinal Madden. And guess what? They dropped the news into our laps via an adorable joint social media post!

The post featured a whimsical drawing and the message, “A little bird whispered to me. 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! For the kid’s safety and privacy, we won’t be posting any pictures—but he’s really cute. We are feeling so blessed and grateful. Sending much love from our family to yours. Best wishes and Good Afternoon!!”

 

 

 

 

 

you’re thinking, “Haven’t they been in the celeb scene for a while now?” you’d be absolutely right. These lovebirds tied the knot in 2015, and they already share a daughter named Raddix. Talk about a growing family! The news was met with a wave of love, support, and virtual confetti from fans and friends. Katy Perry chimed in with, “Another Earth angel,” while Benji’s brothers Joel and Josh poured out their affection in a series of heart emojis. The love was real, folks.

Now, if you’re itching to catch a glimpse of this little cherub, you might have to cool your jets. Much like their approach with Raddix, Cameron and Benji are keeping photos of Cardinal under wraps. They’re fiercely private when it comes to their kiddos, and honestly, who can blame them?

The Charlie’s Angels star has always been candid about motherhood. She recently opened up to Gwyneth Paltrow during a Goop podcast interview, sharing how the arrival of her children has reshaped her outlook on life and aging. “It’s totally opened up, I’m excited,” Cameron gushed. “I’ve got 50 or 60 years to go—I want to live to be 110 since I’ve got a young child. I think you have this amazing moment in your 40s where you appreciate who your parents are, and I want to have that moment with her—be there with her in her 40s.” Talk about long-term goals!

Of course, even the sweetest news can bring out a few sour lemons. While many fans rushed to share their heartfelt congratulations, others had less-than-warm opinions about Diaz having a child at her age. One keyboard warrior commented, “Who the heck wants to become a parent at 51 yrs old?” Well, evidently Cameron does—and she’s rocking it
