Cameron Diaz is still grieving for her late father.

The 'My Sister's Keeper' actress was "stunned" when her father Emilio died of pneumonia in April 2008, because he was only 58 years old.

The blonde beauty said: "I was in shock. My dad was a huge part of my life and I think about him every day still. He will be a part of me forever."

She said: "I think it's only normal for people to ask my views on motherhood, especially of someone my age, because it seems like he obvious thing, 'Why haven't you done it yet?' But it doesn't bother me.

"It's not the cross I bear. I simply have no idea at this stage in my life. Besides, I'm still young. I have one nephew and four nieces. I've seen three births. I've been there for the dirty diapers, I've done the bottles. I know what it takes to do it."

Earlier this week, Cameron revealed she thinks it is unfair women are made to feel guilty for not wanting to have a family.

She said: "I think women are afraid to say that they don't want children because they're going to get shunned. But I think that's changing too now. I have more girlfriends who don't have kids than those that do.

"And honestly? We don't need any more kids. We have plenty of people on this planet."
