Cameron Diaz admitted she had some pretty strong thoughts about where couples should lay their heads at night before she tied the knot.
“We should normalise separate bedrooms. To me, I would literally, I have my house, you have yours,” Cameron said on an episode of the Lipstick On The Rim podcast on Tuesday.
The star of The Holiday, who married Good Charlotte guitarist Benji Madden in 2015, talked about what she previously considered her ideal living situation.
“We have the family house in the middle. I will go and sleep in my room. You go sleep in your room. I’m fine,” Cameron explained to the show’s hosts, Molly Sims and Emese Gormley.
The Charlie’s Angels actor then said she used to consider having a “bedroom in the middle,” a spot where they could “convene” to spend time together.
But she clarified that she changed her mind after getting married to her husband.
“By the way, I don’t feel that way now because my husband is so wonderful. I said that before I got married,” she added.
Though Cameron’s opinion has changed, there’s at least one person who might still agree with her.
Last year, TV host Carson Daly, who married blogger Siri Pinter in 2015, said he and his wife had been happily sleeping separately for a few years.
On the Today show, he said that a “sleep divorce” while his wife was pregnant with their fourth child was the “best thing” for his marriage.
“We woke up, and we just shook hands like, ‘I love you, but it’s time to sleep divorce. It’ll be the best thing for all of us,’” Carson told People magazine in 2020.
