“Happy New Year everybody!!!” McConaughey wrote. “On Sunday, Jan. 3rd at 12:13 am, Camila gave birth to a healthy seven-pound, seven-ounce baby girl named Vida Alves McConaughey… Vida is

“We pulled off the greatest miracle in the world one more time. Camila and I are expecting our second child, bringing more life into the world, making more to live for. The future looks bright as
the family grows.”
Just days before the birth, McConaughey’s mother expressed her excitement to Us Magazine. “We
have no idea when the baby is coming! The baby could come literally any minute. We are all waiting and very excited!”
