Cameron Diaz's rarely-seen daughter Raddix's picture-perfect life away from the spotlight revealed
Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden's little girl, Raddix, is now three years old and her famous parents have managed to shield her from the bright lights of Hollywood.
The notoriously private couple - who welcomed their only child via surrogate - have only been photographed in public a handful of times.
While there are very few photos of Raddix, her famous parents have opened up about how they are raising her and the joys of having a child, giving a glimpse into their idyllic life.
Cameron, 50, stepped away from the limelight for eight years, although recently returned, to focus on other projects - including her Avaline wine brand - and to also spend more time with her family.
Raddix is being brought up at their plush $20.8million home in Beverly Hills which is palatial to say the least.

The farmhouse-style property boasts seven bedrooms, and 10 bathrooms and ample outside space for their daughter to play. The full-time security and gated compound make it secure, safe and incredibly private - just how they like it.
Becoming a mom in her 40s has been a blessing for Cameron who says she feels grateful every day. She told People she is "the oldest mom in my group of girlfriends with kids," and that "I'm lucky to be my age, lucky to have those girlfriends, lucky to have my daughter, lucky to have all the support I do raising her."
Cameron has called becoming a mother the "best thing I've ever done in my life," but also admits it can be tricky at times. Speaking to fellow mom Kelly Clarkson, during an appearance on her talk show, she described some frustrating parenting moments.

The actress said that she does her "mom checklist" and tries to understand what Raddix might be feeling. "Did she eat? Is she tired? What time is it? When was the last time she ate? When did she nap? You just kind of start there, and you go, 'What just happened? Is there something she's trying to communicate to me?'" she explained.
"And I feel like as a parent, my job is to just help her find the words to her emotions, her experience, what she's going through and be able to help her identify that and move through it."
Cameron is clearly enjoying motherhood and everything it has to offer and she's been pictured taking her daughter to swim class and the park as they make the most of the California weather.
It's not just Cameron who does all the parenting either, she's made sure the Good Charlotte rocker gets his dues too. "He’s so good. He’s such an amazing father," she said of Benji during another Instagram Live video in April 2020. "I’m so lucky he’s my baby’s daddy. Like, he’s so incredible."
