Early life, education and career
Luciana Bozan Barroso was born on July 31, 1976 in Salta, Argentina. When she was young, her father, who worked as an insurance agent, and her mother, who was a housekeeper, divorced, so she was raised by her grandparents.
Her family is originally from Italy, but moved to Argentina before her parents were born so they could pursue a better life.
From an early age, she was interested in the arts, especially literature. In high school, she aspired to become an artist. Years later, she earned a Bachelor of Arts from a local university.
Luciana’s professional aspiration changed over time, so she became a flight attendant.
First marriage
Luciana met Arbello Barroso during her career as an air hostess. The couple got married soon after and welcomed their daughter, who they named Alexia.
This caused Luciana to quit her career so she could devote her life to being a good parent, and the family moved to Miami, Florida, USA.
However, in 2004 the couple divorced for undisclosed reasons and Luciana received custody of Alexia. She and Barroso remained good friends and there was no drama in their split. Even before their divorce, Luciana started working as a bartender so she could earn enough money to take care of her daughter.
Marriage to Matt Damon
Luciana met famous Hollywood actor Matt Damon in 2003, while he was filming in Miami for the movie “Stuck on You”.
Damon is famous for his roles in blockbusters such as ‘Good Will Hunting’, ‘Saving Private Ryan’ and ‘The Talented Mr. Ripley’.
Damon, joined by several of his colleagues, walked into Crowbar where Luciana worked, and the bartender quickly caught his eye. They started dating after Luciana divorced and Damon proposed in September 2005. They married four months later on the 9the December 2005. The wedding ceremony was held at the Manhattan Marriage Bureau, and it was kept private, as the two didn’t like the public attention. The only guests were their closest friends and family.
Their first daughter was born in June 2006, whom the couple named Isabella. In August 2008, they had their second daughter, Gia Zavala Damon, and two years later a third daughter, Stella. The couple also have custody of Luciana’s first daughter, Alexia, making them the parents of four daughters.
As of May 2020, the couple resides in Manhattan, New York City USA.
Together with her husband, Luciana Barroso appeared in several television shows, such as “Inside the Actors Studio”, “Extra with Billy Bush” and “Entertainment Tonight”.
Private life
Luciana and her husband are very reserved people. They avoid Hollywood scandals and can only be seen on cameras at red carpet events, such as movie premieres.
Arbello Barroso has a good relationship with the couple, although Damon has custody of his daughter, Alexia. He often visits the Damon family to spend time with his child.
Alexia aspires to become an actress. In 2011, she made a brief appearance in a family feature film, “We Bought a Zoo”, alongside her adoptive father. As a child, she attended a local private school in New York and loved playing football.
In 2019, Matt Damon tattooed the names of their four daughters on his arms.
In an interview, Damon said he and his family received a lot of gifts when their first daughter, Isabella, was born. However, he said that since they really don’t need anything, all these gifts were given to people who have less. “It’s hard to figure out how to try to give them perspective,” he said. “It is sometimes a source of tension in the family.”
Through her second husband, Luciana is the stepdaughter of actors Nancy Carlsson-Paige and Kent Damon.
“Stuck on You,” the movie that brought together Luciana and Damon, was supposed to be shot in Hawaii, but the location was later moved to Miami.
Damon revealed that he never likes to go out, but his friends managed to persuade him to join them the night he met Luciana.
The couple’s list of family friends includes Hollywood big names like Ben Affleck and George Clooney.
In 2013, nearly a decade after they married, the couple renewed their vows. This time, the ceremony was grand and lavish, and many personalities appeared, such as Jimmy Kimmel.
The couple say they never separate for more than two weeks and that spending a lot of time together is key to a successful marriage.
Luciana is not active on any social media platforms.
