“Jamie is the best. I love that man so much,” Diaz said. “He’s such a special person, and he’s so talented, so fun. I really hate all the things that are said about our set, when at that moment you just want to scream at the top of your lungs like, ‘Guys! Where did you it about?

In an interview with CBS host Dana Jacobson released in July 2022, Diaz explained why she left the industry for eight years and now feels ready to step back into the spotlight.

“If you’re doing something that you know, and you’ve done it well, and you know how it works and it’s lasted all your life, then it’s kind of nice to say, ‘You know what?’ Let me take a step back and see what the whole picture looks like for me and what are the things I could do better and be more involved with that would make me feel more complete.” And I did that,” Diaz said.
