It's never too late to become a mom. Obviously, this is the rule that guided some stars who decided to experience the happiness of motherhood after the age of 40. Modern medicine today allows you to carry and give birth to healthy babies, regardless of the number in your passport. In addition, surrogacy services are very popular among celebrities.
OBOZ.UA decided to dedicate an article to celebrity moms who were not afraid to give birth to a daughter or son after 40 years. These women are just a few examples of how age is just a number. Their stories inspire others to not be afraid of change and follow their dreams because motherhood can be a happiness at any age.
Cameron Diaz
She is one of the most famous and successful actresses in Hollywood, the star of the cult films The Mask, Charlie's Angels, Gangs of New York, and What Happens in Vegas. Diaz has always been open about the fact that she was in no hurry to become a mother because she was busy with her career. However, now the celebrity is happy that motherhood has become a part of her life at a more mature age. The actress gave birth to her first daughter in 2019 from musician Benji Madden when she was 47 years old. The girl, who was named Raddix, was born using IVF (in vitro fertilization).
The actress is now 51 years old, and on March 23 of this year, she amazed fans by admitting that she became a mother for the second time. Diaz and Madden had a son, who was named Cardinal. The star admitted that she feels very happy.
Hilary Swank
The winner of two Oscars became a mother for the first time in 2023 when she was 48. The star of the cult film Million Dollar Baby gave birth to twins, a girl and a boy, who were named Aya and Ohm, respectively. The father of the two children is entrepreneur Philip Schneider, whom the actress married in 2018.
"It wasn't easy. But they were worth it," Swank commented on her new status as a mom after giving birth.
Rebel Wilson
The Australian actress and comedian, known for her roles in Pitch Perfect, How to Be Single, and the Hustle, became a mother for the first time at the age of 42.

Paris Hilton
On January 25, 2023, the world-famous socialite and businesswoman announced that she had become a mother for the first time. At that time, she was almost 42 years old. "You are already loved, I can't tell you how much," Hilton said to her son in a touching way.
The boy was named Phoenix. He was born through surrogacy. Paris and her husband, businessman Carter Reum, who got engaged in February 2021, dreamed of becoming parents and even prepared for IVF. At one point, the socialite even froze her own eggs. Obviously, the celebrity failed to get pregnant on her own, so the couple decided to resort to the services of a surrogate.

Joe: The Rise of Cobra and many others, gave birth to her daughter Marlowe with Tom Sturridge in 2012 when she was 30. However, she was included in our list quite rightly.
