Brittany Wong lives in LA and covers love, sex and relationships for HuffPost.
Camila Alves has said that Matthew McConaughey's mom, Mary Kathlene McCabe, put her through the wringer before they married.“She tested my feelings and tested the woman that I had the feelings for. In the big picture, that’s pretty cool, actually,” he said.
“She would call me by all of Matthew’s ex-girlfriends’ names,” the model said of McCabe, whom the family calls “Ma Mac.”“She would start speaking Spanish with me in a very broken way, kind of putting me down a bit. I mean, all kinds of stuff.”“The whole way there, the whole plane ride to Istanbul, she was telling me all these stories and putting all these things in my head,” Alves said.
“In most cases, I don’t think the conflict is as obvious and blatant as it was here, but mothers-in-law can be weird and inappropriate,” Lieberman told HuffPost.“It often comes from a sense of loss: ‘I’m being replaced as the main woman in my son’s life by this lovely young thing who is moving Mom right off center stage,’” she said.
“I would say: ‘I know how important you are to X, and I value that. It’s only because you have done such a good job of raising him that I can love him so much. I hope you and I can have a good, honest relationship too,’” Lieberman said.“This is especially true when the mother can accept that one of her last jobs as mother is to make sure she has a healthy relationship with her children’s spouses,” Lieberman said.
“It never got any better. Apparently she didn’t want us to buy a house or get married. She tried to promise him money to make him hold off. She said, ‘When I sell my house, I’m going to give you 25K to put down on a house.’ She never had intentions of selling; she was just trying to manipulate and control him.“The sad part is, my husband never got a parent that actually cared about him. Most of these guys are the golden child or scapegoat, and that form of attention is all they ever got.
