While some others find it so easy to conceive, the "Bad Teacher" star Cameron Diaz is struggling to get pregnant. Since Diaz married Benji Maden early this year, the actress has been so eager in starting a family. In fact, previous reports claim that the "Annie" star halted her acting career to pursue her dream family.
Unfortunately, it seems that things weren't that easy because Diaz is still finding it difficult to conceive. A source told Star Magazine via Classicalite that Diaz has abandoned her obsession with health at the time and turned to alcohol to release her frustrations.
The source revealed that the actress didn't think she would have a hard time getting pregnant. The in vitro process just made her miserable.
"It's made her bloated and heavy and she hates feeling so unlike herself. She's saying it's too hard right now to be healthy. Instead she drinks to cope with the stress...she's been drinking at home a lot," said the source.
Actually, Diaz has been very open-minded when it comes to getting pregnant. In fact, she tried batching in Aboriginal waters in Australia in hopes of boosting her fertility, a trick she learned from Nicole Kidman but it didn't work for her, OK! Magazine has learned.
Apart from the pregnancy issue, the actress is plagued with problems in her marriage. According to Belfast Telegraph, "The Other Woman" actress feels a distance between her and her husband since they resumed their daily routines. Are they exiting the honeymoon stage?
Diaz is lucky enough to find a confidante in Nicole Richie, who is married to Benji's twin brother Joel. Both women were reportedly facing marital issues and are supporting each other.
"Cameron and Nicole are close and have both had problems in their marriages recently, so have been leaning on one another," an insider told Britain's Closer magazine via Belfast Telegraph.
"Cameron and Benji feel like they haven't spent enough quality time together, so have agreed to take a sunshine holiday next month (Nov15) to try and iron out their issues and hopefully get back on track," added the insider.
The report claims that among Benji and Cameron's problems was starting a family. They've been trying to conceive for some time to no avail and this made the couple frustrated. The failed attempts disheartened the blonde star who has taken a break from her career to get pregnant.
Meanwhile, Benji is busy working on his new music with Joel, thus, the limited time with Cameron. Diaz on the other hand wanted to resume her acting career. "Cameron is starting to miss work and has asked her agent to start sending her scripts again," said the insider.
