Cameron Diaz is without a doubt the president of Benji Madden's fan club. 

In honor of her husband's band Good Charlotte releasing their long-awaited comeback album Youth Authority on Friday, the actress took to Instagram to celebrate the exciting news with a personal message that will surely melt your heart. 

"One of my favorite things about being married, is how much pride I take in my husband," Diaz captioned a promotional video of the guitarist, who she famously wed in January 2015 after a whirlwind 17-day engagement.

"He makes me proud everyday.. One day it might be how generous and giving, another how gentle and thoughtful. Or when he is fiercely protective of the people he loves and cares about...  And everyday single day I am so incredibly proud of his integrity as a human being..," she continued.

Cameron then switched topics to Madden's musical prowess, noting, "TODAY what I'm most proud of is his talent... his gift....," before adding, " What makes me even more proud is that he has released it on his own independent label MDDN... And it is so damn GOOOOOOOOD... Its so full of love and hope and truth... about forging and holding onto love... I wish that everyone could write music to express their pain.. their fears... their hopes and dreams. Baby you amaze me... CONGRATS!!"

The rocker (whose Good Charlotte counterpart just so happens to be Nicole Richie's hubby Joel Madden) couldn't help but gush in a recent interview with Newsweek about his own pride for Diaz, who he likened to a "modern day feminist" amidst the release of her newest guide to aging, The Longevity Book. 

"I'm proud of her because of what a light she is in a world where it would be so much easier to use that stage to promote products. But she's using that platform she has to share positivity," Benji said, referencing the financial and scientific investments Cameron has made throughout her pursuits as an author. 

Madden concluded, "It's been one of the most inspirational things in my life watching a woman be so courageous...she's got so much integrity. I'm a lucky guy that I get to experience that."
