1)Matt Damon and Luciana Barroso

Damon met his wife Luciana in April 2003 in Miami while filming Stuck on You. The couple engaged in September 2005 and married in a private civil ceremony at the Manhattan Marriage Bureau on December 9, 2005.

They have three daughters together born in June 2006, August 2008, and October 2010.

Damon told Ellen DeGeneres in one interview, After a long day of shooting, some crew members invited him to get a drink.

He said,

“They said, ‘Come on,’ and kind of dragged me along, I literally saw her across a crowded room and eight years and four kids later, that’s my life. I don’t know how else our paths would have crossed if that didn’t happen.” The moral of the story is? “When you’re tired, suck it up and go to the bar and you might meet your wife,”

McShane later told Oprah.

“I had just gotten out of a seven-year relationship. I was depressed, and my friends were trying to set me up all the time. After a bad date, they’d ask, ‘What are you looking for?’ I had discovered The Jon Stewart Show, so I said, ‘Someone funny and sweet, like Jon Stewart.”

As a fate, Mcshane’s roommate was a production assistant on Wishful Thinking and played matchmaker when Stewart stopped by the set.
