The family of five; Matthew, Camila and their two sons Levi, Livingston and Vida had life going on in Malibu, California. However the two decided to go for a slower, nuanced, ritualistic lifestyle in Matthew’s home state-Texas. These details were revealed by the couple after many years in Southern Living’s April 2024 Cover story. The two recall how this decision was natural as there were various family crises and the two were in Austin at the time. The couple was there to visit Matthew’s mother when 41-year-old Camila pointed out the way in which Texas washed over her husband. As the two waited at a red signal, Camila read his mind and blurted out saying, “You want to move here, don’t you?” and the two agreed in that silence on what’s next.
The two moved with their family in 2014 post which all changed, even Hollywood for them. Matthew felt like “Time slowed down,” and “The clock was right, the body clock. And part of that is ritual; part of that is just the distance between places and the way people move. But it’s also the hospitality, the courtesy, the common sense, the lack of drama.”
The Gentlemen actor found it easy to adapt as he grew up there, Camila faced her challenges finding herself and where she fit. However she agrees even today that the “gravity” felt years ago was the right feeling even now. The couple is now cosy and happy in their new life.
