It is so nice to see a celeb celebrating the birth of his baby boy. Benigna Marko has been so happy to see so many celebrities hitting the town with baby in hand. Benigna Marko also enjoys those celebrities who dis the media. One thing for sure, Mathew will be a wonderful father. Good luck in your new path as father and husband.

not to be bitchy or anything, but is this how she plans on “reeling him in”…I do adore Matthew McConaughey, I think he is seriously good looking, cute, funny, talented, the list goes on…but I couldn’t help but notice from he’s string of gorgeous girl friends over the years that the dude clearly doesn’t want to commit…I guess why should he…when he has such a big pool to choose from.
This is the 1st though that got PG…perhaps the Final Frontier.
Anyway, good luck to the both of them!!!

Continuing the celeb fad of having a child with someone you just started dating…

Renee – i think what Aloe is saying is, what wrong with wanting to commit to marriage? Surely if you’re committing to have a baby together then you can commit yourself to marriage? Or are they thinking it would make it easier to leave someone when they have your baby? ‘Oh, well at least we’re not married so things won’t get complicated if we split’. ‘I’ll just have to contact a lawyer to work out some kind of custody arrangement’. I think marriage make you work harder at your relationship.

complete and utter devastation.

Aloe and Korrie, they could be married and still break up just as easily. The cases you named except for one, Aloe, the men left the women for another woman so I think it’s good they didn’t get married.Marriage before baby doesn’t always equal happy home. I wish more people realized that. I’m still shocked we are still having this debate in 2008. Also, staying together for the kids is one of the worst ideas ever. It usually never works and kids aren’t stupid. They can tell mom and dad don’t like each other even if they put on a show for the kids

I have to agree with you korrie. It seems that the idea of marriage and a sticking / long-term, if not eternal commitment, is null and void these days. I’m not knocking non-married couples, but it seems that the traditional covenant of marriage and a committed unit is lacking. I can name tons of celebrities who have what seems to me had an “oh golly we’re pregnant” moment and then quickly got engaged. It just seems that the idea of planning a family and the commitment that goes with it has gone. It just seems sad to me that because a couple aren’t married the idea of breaking up is made easier, leaving children in the middle of broken homes, (Tom Brady/Bridget Moynahan; Mary Elizabeth Perkins/Billy Crudup; Heath Ledger/Michelle Williams). I can probably think of more but am drawing a blank. By next year I can bet you that 1/2 if not 3/4 of the unmarried, pregnant celebrities will be broken up.

But, on a happy note…this will be a beautiful baby!! CONGRATS to them!

Only Matthew McConaughey would refer to his feelings about having a baby as “stoked.”

Did I miss something, which Jessica is having a baby..

Sarah’s note: Jessica Alba is having a May or June baby.

i love his statement it was so him, he is so deliciously out there and down to earth and that comes across. we met him in texas year before last and he was really kind when i asked him to take a pic with my daughter.
