The How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days alum was likely outside, as he moved from Los Angeles to Texas, where he grew up, with his kids, Levi, Vida and Livingston, whom he shares with wife Camila Alves.

“We were living a happy life in Malibu,” Alves said. “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.”

“Ritual came back, 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," McConaughey said of their routine.
