Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden welcomed their third child, a son named Nautas, on May 4, 2026, delighting fans with this unexpected announcement. The couple shared their joy via social media shortly after the birth.
Benji Madden expressed his excitement on Instagram: “Cameron and I are Happy, Excited, and feeling so BLESSED to announce the birth of our third Child, Nautas Madden. Welcome to the world Son!!” The name Nautas is derived from the Latin word for sailor, reflecting a unique choice for their growing family.
Cameron Diaz, now 53 years old, has been largely out of the limelight for nearly a decade but returned to acting in the 2025 film ‘Back in Action.’ Meanwhile, her husband Benji Madden is 47. The couple married in 2015 and are already parents to two other children: Raddix Wildflower Madden, born in 2019, and Cardinal Madden, born in 2024.
Diaz has openly discussed her journey through motherhood and the challenges associated with it. She has previously mentioned their use of surrogates for pregnancies due to experiences with infertility. “Having a family when you’re young…it’s like anything when you’re young: You do it. But when you’re my age and you decide to do it, it’s a real choice. You really have to work hard for it,” she reflected.
In her own words about motherhood, she stated: “I love being a mother. It’s the best, best, best part of my life.” The couple’s commitment to family is evident as they navigate parenthood later in life.
As they embrace this new chapter with Nautas, fans remain curious about how this will affect Diaz’s career trajectory moving forward. With her recent return to acting and now expanding her family once again, observers are eager to see what lies ahead for this beloved celebrity couple.
