Where there's a big Texas Longhorns game, Academy Award winner Matthew McConaughey is sure to be present too. But while the star of Dallas Buyers Club and True Detective always has the cameras on him when he's at a Longhorns game, today his wife appears to be turning even more heads.
Prior to the game and even throughout the game, McConaughey was posing for pictures on the field at AT&T Stadium along with his family. At his side for most of them was his beautiful wife Camila McConaughey (nee Alves), along with their children.

Born in Brazil, Camila McConaughey moved to the United States in 2001 to pursue a career in fashion modeling. Her career quickly took off even as she worked as a waiter and cleaner to make ends meet. She's appeared on numerous magazine covers and fashion runways.
On her Instagram, which features tons and tons of photos of herself and Matthew spending time with each other or the rest of their family, she has over 1.4 million followers and no shortage of eye-popping photos.
"How elegant and strong is this @brandonmaxwell outfit???? I am so sad to miss Your Fashion Show today NY Fashion Week… Last year your show was one of the most stunning and emotional shows I was part of, seeing your dad there. Good Luck today, can't wait to see the new collection!!! I know It is going to be fantastic!!!! Sending love!" she wrote in a post back in September.
McConaughey has been married to Camila since 2012. The couple first met all the way back in 2006 and McConaughey has credited her with convincing him to stop doing the rom-com movies he had been doing for much of his career up to that point.
The couple have since had three children together, two sons and a daughter, born between 2008 and 2012.
The McConaugheys have been more than just a couple that appears at awards shows though. In 2010, they founded the Just Keep Livin' Foundation, and were responsible for delivering over 100,000 face masks to Texas hospitals during the COVID-19 pandemic back in 2020.
But it's been decades since Matthew McConaughey was able to see his beloved Longhorns play for a national title, much less win one.
Everyone's eyes may be on the McConaugheys during the game, but they've only got eyes for the Longhorns as they battle the Ohio State Buckeyes in the Cotton Bowl.
The game is being played on ESPN.
