Matt Damon Shares His Advice for Being a 'Girl Dad' and Praises Daughter Alexia's 'Incredible' Boyfriend
The actor shares his daughters Isabella, 18, Gia, 15, and Stella, 13, and Alexia, 25, with wife Luciana Damon
Matt Damon isn't planning on "going all Boston" on his daughters' boyfriends — at least not yet.
The Air actor, 53, appeared on SiriusXM's Radio Andy and spoke with host Andy Cohen, 56, about his best advice for being a girl dad. Damon is dad to daughters Isabella, 18, Gia, 15, and Stella, 13, and Alexia, 25, whom he shares with wife Luciana Damon.
"Oh, man. I don't know. I wouldn't deign to give anybody advice other than I just try to listen and be helpful," Damon responded to Cohen's question about his best advice. "I mean, ultimately, it's about building self-esteem."
"You know, 99% of the decisions they make, you're not gonna be there, right?" added Damon.

"Right. What kind of dad are you when they bring a boy home and they say, 'I'm dating this...'" Cohen asked, trailing off.
"Oh, I'm fine. I'm cool with that. You know what I mean?" Damon replied, prompting Cohen to ask, "You don't turn all Boston, like, 'What are you doing with my daughter?'"
"No, no, no. That's like an old trope that I think people, you know, like to play up. You know, dads like to joke about it amongst each other I think sometimes, but no," the dad of four explained.
"You know, at least, our [25-year-old] has, you know, she's got this incredible boyfriend who Lucy and I just love," Damon said of his daughter Alexia. "We adore the guy and to see that she's making those kinds of choices, really, it's as good as it gets."
On Wednesday, July 31, Damon walked the red carpet with his entire family for the New York premiere of his latest film, The Instigators. The proud dad posed for photos with all four of his daughters and his wife, smiling together.
PEOPLE spoke to the Oppenheimer alum at the event, who said that his wife was the one who convinced him to join the upcoming comedic thriller.
“She actually produced this one,” Damon said of Luciana. “So she was very actively involved in this one, but I just trust her.”
“She's one of those people whose taste I trust completely, like Casey and Ben [Affleck],” Damon told PEOPLE.
