For Matthew McConaughey and his wife Camila Alves, how they met in a bar was the beginning of a beautiful love story that would last for the rest of their lives.
Unlike most Hollywood couples, Matthew McConaughey and his wife Camila have a simple yet perfect relationship, complete with three kids, a storybook wedding and a love that seemed to most was meant to be.
According to the couple, Matthew McConaughey and his wife Camilla met at a bar in West Hollywood and their first meeting had led to a second and a third and so on.
"We met at Hyde, of all places," said McConaughey's wife Camilla in an interview with Access Hollywood regarding their first encounter.
According to the Brazilian model, Alves didn't recognized McConaughey the first time she spotted him, despite the fact that she had seen his movies and knew who he was.
"We had two interactions at the bar," Alves explained. "The first interaction, I did not know who he was. At the time he had a really long beard, and he had this rasta hat. He was all covered up, and I didn't really realize who he was."
However, with the appearance of McConaughey's close friend Lance Armstrong, Alves figured out his identity.
"Lance came to talk to me," Alves said. "You knew they were always together, so I'm like, OK, I'm outta here. I'm going to the other side of the room!"
Alves said she changed her mind a little later, thus sparked a love story that Hollywood now envies.
Matthew McConaughey and wife Camilla Alves now have three children, Levi (5), Vida (3) and Livingston (13 months).
Looking back at the beautiful wedding ceremony that had been a long time coming before it finally happened, Alves said she was surprised she got married at all but she's grateful she decided to.
"I think it's something that we evolved to," Alves said. "I was never the girl that grew up saying I want to get married. I actually told my parents to not expect me to get married."
"The main thing for me is to make sure our home is peaceful, that it's healthy, that the kids are good. I didn't know how important [the wedding] was, and how really truly special it was, until I went through the ceremony," she added.
With his recent Best Actor win at the Oscars, Matthew McConaughey said he'd like to have another baby with wife Camilla as soon as possible.
"We won’t stay at the after-party long – I want to go home and make another baby!" said ‘McConaughey to The Sun after the Academy Awards show.
