Matt Damon and wife Luciana soak up sun after Ben Affleck 'saves their marriage'

Matt Damon and Luciana Barroso were seen making the most of the summer as they headed to a beach in Byron Bay. The Martian star played bat and ball with Spanish MMA coach and Centr fit app trainer Jorge Blanco, while Luciana enjoyed some sunbathing.

Matt was seen running around the beach in a grey t-shirt, black shorts and black sunglasses before whipping off his shirt, displaying his toned physique. Meanwhile Luciana opted for a bright blue bikini that showed off her stunning curves as he took in the sun's rays.

The pictures come after Matt's close pal and fellow Hollywood actor Ben Affleck and his wife Jennifer Lopez had to step in to successfully save his relationship as he was said to be on rocky ground with his wife and the pair were reportedly "speeding toward a split." Luckily, Ben is said to have urged his pal to call in a therapist "before it was too late".

Matt and Luciana got married in 2005 and have one child, Isabella. Matt has been close friends with fellow actor, Ben, since they were young children and have starred in movies like Good Will Hunting, Field of Dreams and more recently, Air. Reportedly, Ben had recommended therapy after explaining that it was the "only thing" that keeps his relationship with J-Lo afloat. An insider claimed: "Ben is first to admit the only thing that keeps Jennifer and him together is therapy."

The source continued to tell National Enquirer that with Ben's help, Matt and Luciana "rediscovered their romance" and are now able to "communicate on a whole new level". Following the intervention, Matt and Luciana were spotted packing on the PDA during a sun-soaked holiday in Mykonos, Greece just before the release of his latest film, Oppenheimer, directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt and Robert Downey Jr.

Sources added that J-Lo had her own "selfish" reasons for encouraging Matt get marriage counselling. "She hoped Matt would shed the bro behaviour he shares with Ben and start paying more attention to his own wife," the insider admitted. "As for Matt, counselling is not only saving his marriage to Luciana. It's thawing the freeze that existed between him and Jennifer, so he and Ben can be best buds again."
