Benji Madden and Cameron Diaz, married for over nine years, recently welcomed their second child, a son named Cardinal. The couple, who kept their daughter Raddix out of the public eye since her birth in 2019, surprised everyone with the news. They announced Cardinal’s arrival on Instagram with a photo of artwork and a message expressing their joy. The couple emphasized their commitment to privacy, stating they wouldn’t post pictures of him.

Cameron and Benji’s first child, Raddix, was also kept private, with the couple revealing her birth only after she arrived. A source close to them mentioned the couple went through a lot to have Raddix, calling her a miracle, and it was later shared that she was born via surrogacy.

While the couple’s announcement was met with excitement, some people criticized Cameron for becoming a parent at 51, with some speculating about surrogacy. But, as always, opinions differ when it comes to personal choices.
