Matt Damon: An ideal night involves food and sleep

12th October 2010

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Matt Damon used to think quiet nights in were lame, but they are now his favourite way to spend time.

The 40-year-old actor has announced his wife Luciana Bozn Barroso, with who he raises three daughters, is pregnant with another girl. Matt cant wait to be a father again, explaining his priorities have totally changed since he started a family. The stars party days are firmly behind him, and his ideal evening involves nothing more taxing than dinner and sleep, a proposition he baulked at in his youth.

I remember ten years ago my brother would come and visit me. His kids were toddlers at the time. He would call me up and say, Im coming to New York for one night. Id say, OK listen well go to this bar down the street, and hed say, No, no, no, heres what were going to do. Were gonna go, well have dinner, Ill have a couple of beers and then Im going to go to sleep. And in the morning youre not going to wake me up. And I remember thinking that sounds like the lamest thing but now our idea of a really nice night is if we could get a quiet dinner and a good night sleep, thats about it, he told the American edition of OK! magazine.

Matt went on to explain how much he adores being a father and the thrill he gets from the role. He says having kids has caused him to relearn life, and injected excitement into everything he does.

The new baby is due soon, and Matt is looking forward to meeting her. He has been trying hard to look after Luciana, explaining he can often be found roaming the streets when she has a craving for strange food.

Im probably not pampering her enough, he laughed. The one good thing Ill say about [living in] New York as a dad is like, whatever craving she has, not only is it less than a block away but most times theyll deliver. So it makes it really easy. (C) Cover Media
