She’s one of the most successful ladies in Hollywood, and Cameron Diaz says it’s all thanks to her parents love for each other.

The “My Sister’s Keeper” actress lost her father last year when he died suddenly from pneumonia, but remembers the bond between her mother and father, telling, “It is the most beautiful and inspiring thing that I have ever witnessed – the eternal love that my mom and dad shared.”

Diaz continued, “It was what has given me the strength and courage to live this extraordinary life and it is what powers the light that burns inside of me.”

The 36-year-old’s latest success, “My Sister’s Keeper,” hit theatres in June.
