Matthew McConaughey Talks Finding Alone Time for Him & Wife Camila Alves During Quarantine

Matthew McConaughey is opening up about life in quarantine with his family.

The 51-year-old actor appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Monday (November 16) to chat about his new memoir “Greenlights” and he discussed his 2020.

Matthew has been quarantined at home in Texas with wife Camila Alves, their three children – son Levi, 12, daughter Vida, 10, and son Livingston, 7 – and his 88-year-old mom Kay.

“This has been going on for 7 months, since the quarantine began,” Matthew said. “It’s been going on long enough to sometimes say, when you say how many kids you have in the house, I say four: a 12, 10, 7 and 88 year old… She still goes to bed after me and wakes up before me!”

Matthew also opened up about finding alone time for him and Camila.

“Sometimes you go through the day and you got the kids’ remote schooling, you get everyone set up, you’re doing meals and running around. I’m doing my work, she’s doing hers, and sometimes it’ll be at 9:30 at night or 10 o’clock when we actually look at each other and go, ‘Oh, hi, how are you?’” he said. “But she’s really good at scheduling and we’re getting a little bit better at creating some structure, not only for the kids but for us and saying, ‘Hey, from this time to this time don’t come knocking on the door. We’re gonna have our time.’”

Last week, Matthew opened up about the rom-com he’d consider doing a sequel for.

Matthew McConaughey Shares Rare & Adorable Video of His Kids on His 51st Birthday!

Matthew McConaughey is celebrating his birthday with his kids!

On Wednesday (November 4), the Oscar winner took to Instagram to share a sweet video montage of his kids singing “Happy Birthday” to him. He shares his three kids – daughter Vida, 10, and sons Levi, 12, and Livingston, 7 – with wife Camila Alves.

“a beautiful alarm clock I had today,” Matt wrote along with the video. The video appears to be from a few years ago, since his kids look a lot younger.

Camila also shared the video while writing, “I know we are all on the election right now but this was a good alarm clock the morning after Election Day celebrating the amazing human that @officiallymcconaughey is!!!!”

“Yes, it is his birthday today! Happy birthday my love!” Camila continued. “Watch the video to the end what my daughter said is how I feel sometimes! 😂😂 And let’s all stay calm and find new ways to unite for our future.”

During a recent interview, Matt shared his thoughts on how he would feel if his kids wanted to get into the entertainment industry.

Just last week, Camila shared a new photo of Levi, and many commented of just how much he looks like Matt. See it here!

Matthew McConaughey Won't Stop His Kids From Going Into Show Business If They Want To

Matthew McConaughey has opened up about his three children he shares with wife Camila Alves in a brand new interview.

The 50-year-old actor revealed that he and his eldest son, Levi, are a lot alike in many ways.

“Levi is the most considerate person I’ve ever met,” Matthew shared. “Yeah, he’s extremely considerate and a very, very sensitive young man and really cares — really caring kid. And he, like me, has a very much perfectionist bone in him.”

He continued that Levi is “a great salesman, he’s a great debater, he’s a great storyteller, he’s becoming a really good storyteller. He and I, we riff up stories and he knows, we give a little wink when we embellish somewhere, like ‘Oh, that didn’t happen, but hey, it’s better for the story,’ but for the most part he’s very active and he’s becoming a good buddy of mine now as he’s reaching 12.”

Matthew also spoke about whether he’d be okay if Levi, daughter Vida and youngest son, Livingston, wanted to go into entertainment like he did.

“Look, I want them to do whatever it is they’re fashioned to do,” he shared. “Whatever they have an innate ability to do, and are willing to put in the work to get better at it. Whatever that is, I want them to do that. If that becomes something in the industry that I’m in? Bravo. I’ve met some of the most wonderful people in my life in my industry, I love what I do. Everybody on a set of a film or a TV show has to be great at their particular job for it to work.”

Matthew added that all three are kind of already in the industry, as he’s “started to employ them. They do all my photo shoots now. They did the Longbranch ads. Levi did.”

“He’s the DP, he’s the one going out there, we’re setting up the GoPros. We’re doing the editing. So, maybe I’ll have a little McConaughey production crew here, and we’ll be a one-stop shop.”

Just last week, Camila shared a rare photo of Levi, and many commented of just how much he looks like Matthew. See it here!

Matthew McConaughey & Wife Camila Alves Open Up About the Importance of 'Tough Love' in Parenting

Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves are giving back.

The married couple are on the cover of Town & Country Magazine‘s annual Philanthropy Issue, out now.

PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Matthew McConaughey

Here’s what the 50-year-old actor and 38-year-old model and designer had to say…

Camila, on why she and Matthew began Just Keep Livin’, a non-profit they founded in 2008 to empower high school students to lead active lives and make healthy choices: “When you have your first child and you’re in the position that Matthew is, whoever gets that first photo will make a lot of money. When we found out that the person was going to make over a million dollars on a photo, we were like, ‘No. We’re going to do an exclusive and get the money and put it into the foundation.’”

Matthew, on giving back: “Being able to give back in ways is a selfish endeavor. It feels good to me to see a smile or hear a young person say thank you. That’s called a selfless act? I call it a selfish act.”

Matthew, on how he raises his children: “Sometimes loving your kids means giving them just what they want. Other times it means tough love. Affluent people can give their kids everything they want, but they’re not usually going to get what they need. Loving a child is a lot harder if you really give a damn. ‘No’ takes a lot more energy. It’s a lot easier to say ‘yes.’”

Matthew, on which one of them says “no” more: “From the snicker that my wife’s giving me, it seems that I’m more consistently the yes guy. She’s probably right.”

Matthew recently had an uncomfortable conversation…
