"Cameron left Hollywood to focus on her mental health and she’s been a big believer in therapy for years," the source told a magazine. "She’s told her friends they go together, and that it keeps the communication flowing smoothly and solves problems before they become serious."

According to the insider, the actress, 51, has no regrets about removing herself from Tinseltown and relocating to "peaceful" Montecito, Calif., where she gets the best of both worlds.

On a 2023 episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Diaz insisted her husband, 45, is actually a softie at heart despite his stage persona.

"He's like, Benj at home, being the best dad ever and running all of his businesses, and then he just gets up there and he's like, 'Yeah, all right, pyro!'" she quipped.

Since his band Good Charlotte's music is a bit too much for their daughter, the rocker takes a different approach when performing in the tot's presence.

"He makes up ... I'm like, 'Why don't we just ... you need to do a kids' album,' because he has the best songs. They play in my head all the time because he sings them to her and she knows the words," the blonde beauty shared. "And it's the sweetest thing ever. It really is. It's so ... it kills me."

"He has some bangers," the Shrek star declared. "I'm telling you."

Star dished on the pair going to therapy.
