“Just asked Camila to marry me,” he wrote. “Merry Christmas.”
Alves, a Brazilian model, first started dating the Lincoln Lawyer star in 2006. They’ve since had two children together: Levi (3) and Vida (1).
Though McConaughey has always remained coy on the subject of marriage, he has maintained a commitment in staying the course with Alves.

McConaughey will next appear in The Paperboy and Magic Mike — the latter of which finds him playing a semi-retired stripper.
