There were rumours that Cameron Diaz may have been engaged to boyfriend Benji Madden last week after she was spotted wearing a diamond ring, but the actress says she is not in a hurry to get married.

“I’m not looking for a husband or marriage or not not looking for that stuff,” the 42-year-old star tells Marie Claire magazine in its November issue. “I’m living, not thinking what I should or shouldn’t be doing with my life.”

The stunning blonde, who plays Miss Hannigan in the upcoming remake of Annie, has also previously spoken about not having children, saying she was never drawn to being a parent.

Yet in the November magazine interview she says: “We live in a society where everyone has kids, so they want other people to have kids. There is this culture that says celebrities are supposed to be just like us, so people think, ‘I have children, why doesn’t she?’ But I’m not going to do something because it’s expected. If a family happens, then it happens. If children come to me, then I would do that, but I’m not someone who feels like she has to do something because it’s expected.”
