Matthew McConaughey and his wife Camila Alves McConaughey are celebrating success!

In an Instagram post on Wednesday, the pair appeared in a video together showing off their excitement about each making the New York Times Best Seller list at the same time for their respective books.

"Good morning. Read the newspaper. Guess who showed up on the New York Times Best Seller list?" Matthew, 52, asked in the clip — Camila, 40, playfully responding, "No, you are on the list."

"I know, but guess who was on the same list for the first time?" Matthew responded while pointing at Camila. "Two McConaugheys, husband, friends on the New York Times Best Seller List at the same time."

Matthew's memoir Greenlights has stayed on the list for 65 weeks and sold over 3 million copies, Camila shared. She made the list for the first time due to the success of her children's book Just Try One Bite, that was released March 22.

"Congratulations," said Matthew in the video while giving Camila a peck on the lips.

Matthew opened up to PEOPLE about his romance with Camila in October 2020, saying that prior to meeting her in 2006, he wasn't sure he would ever find "the one." The star recalled deciding he was "looking too hard" and needed to sit back a bit.

"I was like, 'Wait, just wait. Be yourself. She'll come if she's supposed to come. And if she doesn't, that's okay, you're still a good man, McConaughey,' " he said. "That's when she showed up, and she moved right to left in front of my eyes across that club. It was as if she was floating. And I did not say, 'Who is that?' I said, 'What is that?' And then introduced myself."

"Since that evening I have not wanted to spend time with any other woman, definitely have not wanted to sleep with anyone else. I've not wanted to have children with anyone else other than her," he added. "We have a love that we never question."
