The red carpet at London’s Curzon Mayfair had a romantic glow Sunday night as Matthew McConaughey and his wife Camila Alves McConaughey shared a kiss while attending the special screening of 'The Lost Bus,' a film that not only stars Matthew but also features their 17-year-old son, Levi.
For the occasion, Camila embraced monochrome elegance, turning heads in a strapless white gown that combined structure with free-flowing detail.
The corset-style bodice featured delicate lacework and subtle boning for a sculpted silhouette, while thin ribboned straps draped softly off her shoulders, adding a touch of romance.
From the waist down, the dress transformed into a cascade of textured fringe, swaying with movement and giving the look a playful, bohemian twist.
She paired the gown with sleek white Jimmy Choo leather pumps, featuring a pointed toe and stiletto heel. Keeping her accessories minimal, Camila let the ensemble speak for itself. Her long, glossy waves and dewy, bronzed makeup completed the look, striking a balance between effortless and glamorous.
Matthew, meanwhile, wore a charcoal three-piece suit and light button-down shirt, with leather shoes completing the tailored look. Together, the couple looked happier than ever, celebrating another milestone.
'The Lost Bus' marks Levi McConaughey’s acting debut. Speaking to People about his role, Levi addressed the inevitable conversations around privilege.
“As much as people can say, 'Oh, you got this because of your father or your mother,' they can open the door, but then it's going to be up to me to do my thing once I get in there," he said. "That's on me."
Matthew backed him up. “There's a line between entitlement and shame. If you can look it right in the eye and deal with it... It's a hell of a roller coaster," he reflected. He admitted to offering Levi guidance from his own experiences in the spotlight, "It's hard to keep your feet on the ground... but over time, you've got to get that sixth sense."
Though he never pushed his kids into acting, Matthew revealed that Levi was persistent. “He had to badger me four times just to help him with a taped audition,” the actor shared. The father-son duo even acted in a tense scene together. “It was tough because we were fighting in the scene,” Levi said, “and that’s not how we are in real life. But I loved it.”
In a candid interview on the 'Modern Wisdom' podcast, Matthew recounted how a simple question from Levi, at just four years old, prompted him to finally propose.
“He asked, ‘Why doesn’t mom have the same last name as dad?’” Matthew recalled. “I’m like, ‘You’re f–king 4, dude.’” The question hit hard. “I was like, ‘Yeah, I guess I am [scared],’” he admitted. That moment led him to seek advice from his pastor and several long-married friends.
“My pastor goes, ‘Let me just ask you this, Mr. Risk Taker. What’s the bigger risk? Carrying on like you’re going or taking the deeper dive into the sacramental covenant of marriage?’” The answer became clear, and in 2012, Matthew and Camila tied the knot.
Their love story began in 2006 at a nightclub in Los Angeles. A year later, they made their relationship public. Camila gave birth to Levi in 2008, followed by their daughter Vida in 2010, and their youngest son, Livingston, in 2012, the same year they married.
Now, 13 years into marriage, the couple continues to grow stronger. Matthew shared one unconventional piece of relationship advice in his new book 'Poems & Prayers,' released earlier this month. In one entry, he writes, “One way to surely get ahead is get rid of that king-size mattress and sleep in a queen-size bed.”
He elaborated in an interview. “I wake up one morning … I’m looking over there and Camila’s like a football field away. Then you go to bed at night, like you want to snuggle up and… ‘Well, we’ve got to cover you up. Come about 12 feet and I’ll come 12 feet.’” So, they swapped their mattress. “Shoulder to shoulder. I’m telling you, it’s good for your marriage,” he said.
