Camila Alves, 25, was born on July 6, at 6:22 p.m. in Los Angeles, the actor’s rep Alan Nierob
confirmed to People.com. Of course the couple was very excited and happy
about their baby boy. Matthew McConaughey said that he and his Brazilian model
girlfriend were “stoked and wowed by this miracle of creation and this gift
from God.”
His mother, Kay McConaughey said that his son was “over the
moon,” reported E! Online. She also said that he loved children and he was
there with Camila Alves, in the room, while she was giving birth.
“I think it's excellent that men are allowed in the room
when women give birth. He loves Camila, but now he really sees how strong she
is,” said the actor’s mother.
Regarding the name of the baby, she said it was a “strong”
name.
“Levi McConaughey. That's no wimpy name,” said Kay
McConaughey, according to E! Online.
The proud grandmother said she had a gift for the baby. She is
planning to give Levi his father’s baby book, adding that it was a special and “one
of a kind” present. She joked about his
grandson not needing clothes, saying he only needed “flip-flops and a bathing
suit,” reported E! Online.
Also, Matthew McConaughey’s brother Rooster said he was
going to be a good father.
McConaughey and Camila Alves have been together for
more than a year and a half. The actor announced in January that he was going
to be a father. On an Oprah show in 2005, Matthew McConaughey said he
had “always dreamed of having children,” even going as far as wishing for “14
or two.”
