Blessed among his women. Matt Damon53, caught the flashes of photographers at the film premiere The Instigators in New York with his female tribe in full force. In addition to his forty-eight year old wife Luciana Barroso (who is one of the producers of the film) there were the couple’s four daughters: Alexia25 years old, daughter that Damon “inherited” from a previous relationship of his wife; Isabella18 years; Already15; Star13. To complete the clan Nancy Carlsson-Paige, Matt’s Mom. It’s not the first time that the fifty-three-year-old actor has walked the red carpet with his family (more or less in their entirety). It happened last year, at the preview of Air and at the premiere of Oppenheimer. And then as now, the photos taken on the red carpet tell the story of a happy family – and a happy couple.
Matt and Luciana, husband and wife since 2005, have been together for 20 years. And their story, from the beginning, seemed like a fairy tale. Luciana was a great admirer of Matt. In 2003, he, filming in Miami Stuck on You, During a night off from the set, he entered the place where the Argentine worked as a barmaid: “The room was crowded, but I only saw her.”Damon will later tell. Since then the two have never left each other: “There was an immediate bond, it was so easy to talk to each other, we were very comfortable with each other”, Luciana told in 2018 to Vogue Australia in a very rare interview. «At the end of the night he invited me to go out with his friends. But I told him: “I can’t, I have a 4-year-old daughter, I’m not going anywhere”… And this was one of the things he loved right away, the fact that I had a daughter. He told me: “I like that you are a mom and that this is your priority“».
After Alexia Isabella, Gia and Stella have arrived. We know almost nothing about the girls: Damon and Barroso, apart from the rare family red carpets, keep their daughters as far away from the spotlight as possible. And Matt rarely makes direct comments about them. We know that Alexia attended university, and that she was in the United States while the family was spending the lockdown in Ireland where they were stuck due to the pandemic. For the rest, tight-lipped about the girls’ lives. Matt and Luciana, on the other hand, also talk little about their love. However, Matt, in an interview, explained that marrying a stranger he made the winning choice: «I was lucky, I fell in love with a “civilian”. Having a non-actress wife, I can keep my private life really private. Nobody wants to get into our bed».
In almost twenty years of marriage, the couple has never been touched by gossip: «It’s hard to see my friends under the lens of gossip, but no one comes near me“, Matt said. “I’m a happily married man with kids, and that’s it. I’m not newsworthy.. Who would want a magazine with this story? Being boring is an advantage.” Damon has such an ordinary daily life that in Los Angeles even the paparazzi have stopped lurking in front of his house for yearsbecause he never does anything that deserves to be immortalized. The greatest joys that the star grants to the flash are the red carpets with his wife and daughters. Which tell, punctually, of a united and happy extended family.
