Woody Harrelson just shared a new piece of evidence to support his theory that he and Matthew McConaughey are brothers.
In a new interview with Esquire, Harrelson claims that when Matthew McConaughey was born in 1969, McConaughey’s dad told his mom, “That ain’t my son” and refused to go to the hospital with her.
Harrelson made the revelation during an interview this week, adding that he “knew that detail” years before Mary Kathleen McCabe insinuated she may have had an intimate relationship with Harrelson’s father.
Last month, McConaughey told Kelly Ripa on her SiriusXM “Let’s Talk Off Camera” podcast that on a trip to Greece a few years ago, his mom told Harrelson she “knew” his dad.
“Everyone was aware of the ellipses that my mom left after ‘knew.’ It was a loaded K-N-E-W,” McConaughey explained. “We went on to unpack what this ‘knew’ meant and did some math and found out that [Harrelson’s] dad was on furlough at the same time that my mom and dad were in their second divorce. Then there’s possible receipts and places out in West Texas where there might have been a gathering, or a meeting, or a ‘knew’ moment.”
In the show, McConaughey and Harrelson play versions of themselves as Harrelson’s family moves in with McConaughey’s. The “Interstellar” actor said it’s “based on truth.”
McConaughey’s dad, who died in 1992, married his mom three times during their relationship. Harrelson’s father Charles Harrelson died in prison in 2007. He was serving a life sentence for murder.
