San Diego, California — A normal day quickly turned into a nightmare for the Madden-Diaz family, as former actress Cameron Diaz was seriously injured in the 5.2 magnitude earthquake that struck this afternoon. Ironically, just 30 minutes earlier, her husband Benji Madden had shared on social media that “my wife is lucky to be alive” in a haunting warning.
“We almost lost her…”
According to sources close to the incident, Cameron Diaz was at her beachfront home in Del Mar, San Diego – an area close to the epicenter of the quake – when a section of the bathroom ceiling suddenly collapsed. She was found unconscious and bleeding from her head and shoulders after a loud noise caused panicked neighbors to call for help.
“She had just left the shower a few seconds before the concrete roof cracked and fell. A large piece hit her shoulder and hit her head. We were so scared she wasn’t going to make it,” a family member shared through tears.
Benji Madden’s terrifying premonition?
Before the quake struck, Benji posted a brief status on Instagram:
“Thank goodness my wife is okay… life can change in a blink of an eye.”
At the time, no one understood why he wrote this. Now, the sharing is like a strange prophecy that has made thousands shudder. Some believe Benji sensed a dangerous premonition, like a strong emotional connection between the couple.
One fan commented on the post:
“It’s like a premonition of someone who is truly in love. He knows something terrible is going to happen.”

A source close to the incident said that Cameron Diaz – who once announced that she was “retiring from acting to focus on her family” – was staying at her private villa in Del Mar, an expensive coastal area near San Diego, when the earthquake occurred. According to Benji, a few minutes earlier, she had just come out of the bathroom where the ceiling was showing signs of cracking due to the old plumbing system.
“If she had stayed in that room for a few more minutes… I can’t imagine what would have happened,” a family member revealed.
