Diaz and Madden tied the knot in January 2015 and welcomed their first child nearly five years later. They wrote on social media at the time, “We are so happy, blessed and grateful to begin this new decade announcing the birth of our daughter, Raddix Madden.”

The pair, who mainly keep their relationship private, noted that they also planned to keep their daughter out of the spotlight, deciding not to share any photos of her online.

During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in October last year, Diaz called Madden the “best dad ever,” saying he loves to create songs for their daughter when he’s at home.

“I’m like, ‘You need to do like a kid’s album,'” the actress said. “Because he has, like, the best songs. They play in my head all the time because he sings them to her, and she knows the words, and it’s the sweetest thing ever.”
