Matthew McConaughey, the highly acclaimed and beloved Hollywood actor, met his wife, Brazilian model Camila Alves in a rather serendipitous manner.
Their love story began in 2006, when they crossed paths at a Los Angeles nightclub. Their connection was instant – they went on their first official date just three days after meeting.
The couple then became inseparable and started attending multiple events and red carpets together; Camila even travelled to Australia to be with Matthew while he was filming Fool’s Gold here.
Since their first encounter, Matthew and Camila’s love has well and truly blossomed, and they’ve now welcomed three beautiful children into their lives. Their first child, a son named Levi, was born in 2008, followed by their daughter, Vida, in 2010.
But before their third child was born, Matthew proposed to Camila on Christmas Day in 2011.
They tied the knot on June 9, 2012, in a private ceremony held at their sprawling estate in Austin, Texas. The wedding was an intimate affair attended by close friends and family.
Shortly after their wedding, in late 2012, they had their third child, another son named Livingston.
