Cameron Diaz has changed her priorities since becoming a mother.
Cameron Diaz is happy to prioritise her family over anything else.
The 53-year-old actress and Benji Madden, her husband, recently welcomed a baby boy called Nautas, and an insider has now revealed that Cameron’s perspective has “shifted” in recent times.
A source told People: “For years, Cameron was completely focused on work, but she always knew she wanted a family. When she met Benji, everything shifted. That’s when her priorities really became clear.
“And being a mom has been so much more than she could ever imagine. It’s brought her a new kind of happiness. She loves being a mom. Nothing makes her happier than her kids.”
Cameron and Benji already have daughter Raddix, six, and son Cardinal, two, and they’re both very “hands-on” with all of their kids.
The insider shared: “She and Benji are both very hands-on. Now, if she works, it’s completely on her terms.
“Every professional move and work project is carefully structured around her family life. Being a mom is what matters the most to her. Everything else comes after that.”
Benji recently announced the arrival of their baby boy via a social media post.
The 47-year-old musician – who has been married to Cameron since 2015 – shared a celebratory message with his followers.
Benji wrote 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!! (sic)”
He continued: “We love life with our family – our kids are healthy and happy, and we are grateful!!! Having a blast.
“Sending all our best wishes – the Madden Family.”
Benji’s Instagram post featured an image of a ship alongside the meaning of the name Nautas – “Sailor, navigator, voyager” – and the phrase: “One who embarks on a journey and fears not the unknown.”
Cameron – who ended her lengthy acting hiatus in 2025, when she starred alongside Jamie Foxx in Back in Action – responded in the comments with a series of star and heart emojis.
