Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden Feel ‘Beyond Blessed’ About Welcoming Daughter

A wonderful chapter in their relationship. Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden are loving their first child together.

“Cameron and Benji had been trying to have a baby for a long time,” an insider told Us Weekly. “There were disappointments along the way, so it was difficult and stressful at times. But they say it was a price worth paying. They feel beyond blessed.” The duo aren’t the only ones head over heels over the newest member to their family, the rocker’s brother, Joel Madden, and his wife Nicole Richie are “thrilled” about it all.

“Nicole and Joel have been so great, and they’ve offered to help in any way they can, both now and moving forward,” the insider told the outlet. “They’re going to be a huge part of Raddix’s life — the plan is to really integrate the two families so all the kids can grow up together and be one big, happy family.” Nicole and Joel have two kids — daughter Harlow, 11, and son Sparrow, 10 — of their own.
