Matthew McConaughey has been left with a painful swollen eye after what appears to have been a bee sting.
"Bee swell," the actor captioned a post on social media, alongside a selfie of Matthew that showed him with a big smile on his face but his right eye swollen closed with the swelling extending down to his cheek.
Matthew's injury may have come about in Texas, where he moved his family in 2014 from Malibu, California in 2014.

"We were living a happy life in Malibu. We had a beautiful house that we'd built together and put a lot of love and care into. We were raising our kids there. I was growing everything in the yard. I had bees making honey," she told Southern Living earlier in the year.

"Ritual came back," Matthew added of how their move impacted their family.
"Whether that was Sunday church, sports, dinner together as a family every night, or staying up after that telling stories in the kitchen, sitting at the island pouring drinks and nibbling while retelling them all in different ways than we told them before."

The star-studded event was held at ACL Live in the heart of Austin, Texas, in April, and was a vibrant celebration of community and charity, with a live auction and a concert headlined by the country sensation Luke Combs.
