The name Nautas is derived from the Latin word for sailor. In his announcement, Benji Madden expressed joy stating, “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!!”

Over the past decade, Cameron Diaz has largely been out of the limelight but made her return to acting in the 2025 film ‘Back in Action.’ She has shared her journey through motherhood and how it has transformed her life.

Diaz has openly discussed the challenges of infertility and surrogacy. The couple used surrogates for their pregnancies. She commented on having children later in life by saying, “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.”

In previous interviews, she stated that motherhood is the best part of her life: “I love being a mother. It’s the best, best, best part of my life.” This sentiment reflects her commitment to family despite the difficulties she faced.

As they embrace this new chapter with Nautas, observers note that Diaz’s journey through motherhood continues to inspire many.
