Matthew McConaughey’s eye swells shut after nasty bee sting
This is not alright, alright, alright.
Matthew McConaughey recently suffered a bee sting to his eye which caused it to swell shut — and he shared a gnarly-looking photo of the aftermath on Instagram Wednesday for all to see.
The “Dazed And Confused” star smiled proudly in the snapshot, which showed his right eye swollen and stuck closed while his left eye was left unmarked.
“bee swell,” he comically captioned the post.
Fans enjoyed his pun — and took the chance to leave a few of their own in the star’s comment section.
“Bee careful!! 💛,” one wrote.
“Hope you’ll Bee Alright, Alright, Alright 🙏🏻,” a second added, referencing his iconic catchphrase.
Others thirsted over his looks despite his swollen eye.
“You know something even with this eye a mess you still are beautiful,” one user penned.
“Still handsome,” another wrote.
McConaughey’s bee sting comes the same week he celebrated his eldest son Levi’s 16th birthday by sharing some advice via a heartfelt Instagram video.
“Alright Levi, coming on that age, buddy. About to be out on your own,” the sentimental father, 54, began in a voiceover. “Me and your mom hope we’ve done as good of a job as we can. You’re not gonna really have us as a safety net out there in the wonderful, wild world forever.”
“Just go out, enjoy. Be aware of your surroundings,” he went on. “Be yourself. Know when to say yes, know when to say no, know when to say maybe.”
Wrapping up his touching note, McConaughey continued, “See the good in everybody else, but know that not everyone else is always paying attention. Take your time. Enjoy the journey.”
The “Dallas Buyers Club” actor shares Levi with his wife, Camila Alves. They’re also parents to Vida, 14, and Livingston, 11.
They celebrated their 12th wedding anniversary on June 10, which the actor marked with a sweet photo of himself kissing Alves’ forehead.
“thank you #happyanniversary,” he simply captioned the tribute.
