“Bee swell,” the actor captioned a social media post, accompanied by a selfie showing him smiling broadly but with his right eye swollen shut and the swelling extending down to his cheek.
Matthew’s injury possibly occurred in Texas, where he relocated his family from Malibu, California in 2014. This decision was a deliberate move to create a new environment for their family after a visit that left Matthew feeling “peaceful but confident,” as revealed by his wife Camila in 2024.
“We were living a happy life in Malibu. We had a beautiful house that we’d built together and put a lot of love and care into. We were raising our kids there. I was growing everything in the yard. I had bees making honey,” she told Southern Living earlier in the year.
Camila went on to share that, during a visit to his parents in Austin, he pulled up to a stoplight and she looked over to see him with a look in his eye that made it clear he felt at home.
“Ritual came back,” Matthew added of how their move impacted their family. “Whether that was Sunday church, sports, dinner together as a family every night, or staying up after that telling stories in the kitchen, sitting at the island pouring drinks and nibbling while retelling them all in different ways than we told them before.”
Matthew McConaughey is the father of Levi, 15, Vida, 14, and Livingston, 11, who are increasingly involved in their parents’ philanthropic efforts. The family recently gathered to attend the Mack, Jack & McConaughey (MJ&M) Gala, an annual event hosted by the Oscar-winning actor.
Held at ACL Live in downtown Austin, Texas, in April, the star-studded gala celebrated community and charitable causes, featuring a live auction and a concert headlined by country sensation Luke Combs.
