Cameron Diaz surprised many when she revealed her unconventional advice for marital bliss – maintaining separate sleeping quarters.
The 51-year-old star, who married Benji Madden in 2015, acknowledged the concept might raise eyebrows but expressed her determination to “normalize” this approach. “We should normalize separate bedrooms,” she stated.
Speaking on the Lipstick on the Rim podcast, Cameron elaborated, “To me, I would literally, I have my house, you have yours. 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.”
He said, “For some sleeping alone leads to a massive improvement, as they are able to create a sleep environment that suits them, a duvet or sheet allows them to manage the temperature fluctuation better, the right mattress and pillow in terms of temperature regulation and support, maybe noises and smells that help relax us into sleep, and a pre sleep ritual that works for the individual.”
However, he cautioned that this arrangement could result in feelings of “isolation and loneliness.”
Offering guidance on how to address this issue, James explained, “To sleep well we need to feel emotionally and physically secure and the absence of the one we love, their presence, their smell, makes our sleep environment feel alien and unwelcoming.
“If you are sleeping alone and want to feel more connected to your partner, you could take their smell, their aftershave or perfume to you room, spray some on a pillow, or maybe on a T-shirt and lay it next to you.”
Cameron Diaz isn’t the only one who has spoken candidly about sleep difficulties. Oprah Winfrey has revealed she experiences sleep troubles, which she attributes to menopause.
Menopause nutritionist Charlotte Hunter explained, “Sleep disturbance is one of the most debilitating symptoms of menopause. A few nutrients can aid a good night’s sleep alongside good hydration and a balanced diet that includes plenty of protein, fiber, and healthy fats.” She also recommended chamomile tea as a potential sleep aid.
