Now, while Matt Damon and Luciana Barroso may be perceived to be two peas in a pod, make no mistake — these two are anything but clingy. Body language expert Nicole Moore clarified that they still maintain a strong sense of individuality, which only makes their bond richer. This was once again seen at a red carpet event when they went to mingle with others separately, all while checking in on one another from time to time.
“During conversation with others, Luciana stepped forward away from Matt’s side to speak with someone, indicating that she’s very comfortable holding her own at events and she sees herself as her own person. Matt, however, kept glancing over at Luciana while she was conversing, as if to check on her and make sure she’s ok,” Moore explained. “Later on when the couple were in front of cameras, Luciana kept looking over at Matt to connect with him and check on him, as if she were more interested in him than in the cameras.” Per Moore, this just goes to show that even though they venture off on their own, their connection remains palpable.
Apparently, their bond goes skin deep as well, and quite literally. In 2013, the pair went to get matching tattoos — a Heath Ledger scribble in particular. Damon even took things up a notch by having “Lucy” inked on his arm. “It’s like a little creative little blessing,” he told GQ. It’s like an angel that looks over all these names that are on the arm.”
