Adorned in chic all-black outfits, the Richie-Madden clan presented a unified front. What particularly captivated the public's attention was Harlow and Sparrow's red carpet appearance—a momentous occasion that spotlighted their striking resemblance to their celebrated parents.

“It’s crazy how they look like the parents but nothing like each other,” marveled one person while another asserted, “They are spitting images of their parents.”

The awe and admiration continued with comments like “Wow. Beautiful! Their daughter’s eyes. So lovely,” and “Daughter is her twin and her son is his dad’s.”

“Daughter looks just like mum and son looks just like dad!” remarked an observer. Another echoed the sentiment, marveling, “My lord, they are a copy and paste of dad and mom!!! They are adorable 😊.”

Many were also hit with nostalgic memories of Nicole being pregnant with Harlow and Sparrow years ago, with another fan recalling, “I remember when she was pregnant, omg, they’re almost grown!” emphasizing the rapid passage of time.

The sentiment of disbelief at the children’s ages—16 (Harlow) and 14 (Sparrow)—was common, with another admirer noting, “It’s crazy to think she’s got kids this old. Look at them, they [are] grown […] Beautiful family she has 😊.”

The 42-year-old's evolution from a known party enthusiast to a dedicated mother over the years is nothing short of inspiring. Reflecting on motherhood in a 2018 interview with a media outlet, she shared the contentment found in life's simple moments with her family, expressing that nothing makes her happier than to be able to wear sweats and "shut off."
While speaking about "mom life," she also revealed that her kids understand that she is a working mom and emphasized the importance of them getting to see her work ethic and drive.

Nicole Richie also unveiled that while Sparrow's persona takes after hers, Harlow's cautious nature resembles more of her dad's personality. When reflecting on her being seen as the stricter parent, she jokingly complained, “I’m like, ‘Guys, you don’t know I’m fun!’” highlighting the lighthearted challenges of parenting.
Drawing back to the red carpet premiere, at some point during the event, the doting parents touched upon Joel’s twin brother, Benji Madden, and Cameron Diaz naming their newborn son Cardinal, a name which, like Nicole and Joel's son, Sparrow, takes after a bird.

When asked whether there was some kind of planned coordination on this front, Joel explained, “I think it's just a twin thing — who knows?”

Joel's twin brother, Benji, and his wife Cameron welcomed their second baby toward the end of last month, making them a beautiful family of four with their firstborn daughter Raddix Madden, which we previously reported on March 23.

Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden have welcomed a new bundle of joy to their family. The couple shared their elation, stating, "We are blessed and excited to announce the birth of our son, Cardinal Madden❤️."

The announcement was accompanied by an artistic image that speaks volumes. The snapshot’s phrase "A little bird whispered to me" seems to be a creative nod to their son's unique name, 'Cardinal,' which refers to a vibrant red North American bird.
In an affectionate note to their fans, the parents expressed their contentment and assured fans of their son's charm: "He is awesome and we are all so happy he is here!" They emphasized their intention to protect their child's privacy, "For the kid's safety and privacy we won't be posting any pictures."
Gratitude and love are the central themes of their message as they conclude with heartfelt thanks. "We are feeling so blessed and grateful," they said, reaching out to their community, "Sending much love from our fam to yours ✨ Best wishes and Good Afternoon!!"

Diaz is also a devoted and loving mother to her little daughter, Raddix, whom she shares with her doting spouse and musician. The couple have been married since 2015.

In 2019, the lovebirds became first-time parents when they welcomed Raddix on December 30. As parents who prefer to remain private where matters to do with their child are concerned, when Diaz and Madden announced Raddix's birth, they did not post a photo of her and explained that they did so to protect and prioritize their baby's privacy.
In 2022, when asked what she enjoys most about motherhood, Diaz answered: "I think just being able to, you know, have influence on a child that's developing, you know? All mothers have that moment where you're watching your child, and they're doing something the first time, and you're like, 'I remember doing that!' It's really cool!"
Motherhood appears to be a dream come true for Diaz. Far from following the narrative of being the exhausted first-time mother, the movie star confirmed that motherhood is the best experience she has embarked on.

As we previously reported in November 2023, the doting mom was seen with her beau and their little girl in a rare family outing. The family enjoyed some time in Montecito and opted for casual wear.
Madden was seen rocking a black hoodie, baseball cap, and loosely fitted pants, while his wife opted for a slightly more chic-causal style with a black button-down shirt, black pants, glasses, green Birkenstocks, and a bag to the value of $1,490. Little Raddix wore a one-piece white outfit and Spiderman sneakers.
Pictures from the day show moments where Diaz held onto her daughter, who was wrangling in her arms after having just kicked off one of her shoes. Reports also stated that Raddix appeared to be full of energy and was seen running around at one point.
