Aug. 1 2012, Published 8:19 a.m. ET
Brazilian beauty Camila Alves never wanted to get married — well, until she met Matthew McConaughey, that is.
The 29-year-old told Access Hollywood Live host Kit Hoover and guest co-host Lisa Rinna, “I was never the girl growing up that said, ‘I want to get married.’ I actually told my parents, ‘Don’t expect me to get married,’” she recalled. “We both come from divorced parents. Both of our parents got divorced and got back together, twice!”

But that all changed when she met Matthew at a trendy Hollywood hotspot.
"We met at a bar," she laughed. "We met at Hyde, of all places."
But Camila admits she didn't know who Matthew was at first.

'We had two interactions at the bar. The first interaction, I didn't know who he was," she laughed. "At the time he had a really long beard and he had this rasta hat. He was all covered up."

Now the couple have two kids, daughter Vida, 2, and son Levi, 4, and they are expecting their third child.
"We've been talking about this for awhile," Camila said about having another baby. "Having two back to back takes you awhile to get out of the cloud and to feel normal again and to think straight."
The plan wasn't to get pregnant again so soon, but nevertheless, they're very happy about it.
“I was trying to push having another baby back as much as I could, but it was time. This baby was ready to come,” Camila continued.
