Matthew McConaughey said keeping a queen-sized bed, rather than a larger one, helps maintain closeness in his marriage to Camila Alves. He presented the advice as a practical way for couples to make time for their relationship alongside parenting, stressing that children also learn about relationships by observing their parents.

McConaughey and Alves have been married since 2012 and have three children. He shared the advice while promoting his book, *Poems & Prayers*, explaining that a smaller bed keeps partners physically closer after children no longer share the family bed; the couple also launched Pantalones Organic Tequila in 2023.
