A reminder that Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden of Good Charlotte fame are still going strong after nearly a decade together (and over nine years of marriage). Back in December 2019, the couple welcomed their first baby, a girl named Raddix. Then, this week, sorta retired Cameron, 51, and Benji, 45, announced the birth of their baby boy.

Lainey linked to the baby news on Saturday’s Pajiba Love, and her opinion was Cardinal is cute compared to Raddix. I completely agree. At least cardinals are beautiful birds. Raddix sounds like a type of bleach spray you use in your bathroom. A source tells People:
“They were always hoping for a second baby, because they love being parents.“For years, Cameron wanted to be a mom,” they add. “She gets very emotional when she talks about the long journey to motherhood. She feels beyond lucky to now have two children.”
Well, good for her and one half of the Good Charlotte twins. And we mustn’t forget that the other one, Joel Madden, is married to Nicole Richie. That’s right, the star of Gangs of New York and the star of The Simple Life are sisters-in-law. The more you know…
