From a surprise New Year Instagram reveal to a family of five, Cameron Diaz and husband Benji Madden have grown their brood since their 2015 wedding, starting with daughter Raddix in January 2020.

Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden just did it again: quiet life, big reveal. They now have three kids, and the way they rolled it out feels very them — low-key until it suddenly isn’t. Here’s the clean timeline.

The family rollout, in order

  • 2015 — Diaz and Madden get married.
  • January 2020 — They welcome their first child, daughter Raddix, and make it Instagram-official with a New Year’s Day post.
    "Happy New Year from the Maddens! We are so happy, blessed and grateful to begin this new decade by announcing the birth of our daughter, Raddix."
  • March 2024 — Baby No. 2 arrives: a son named Cardinal.
  • April 2026 — Surprise: baby No. 3 shows up, another boy, named Nautas. Madden drops the news on Instagram with:
    "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!!👊❤️"

So that’s the squad: daughter Raddix, and sons Cardinal and Nautas. Not your standard-issue baby-name lineup, and honestly, I respect the commitment. The third baby was a genuine surprise to fans, which tracks with how these two like to share — on their timeline, in their words, and when they’re ready.
