Ian Somerhalder & Nikki Reed Are Expecting Their First Child

Actors Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed are expecting their first child together. The couple took to social media to share an identical photograph on social media to confirm the news.

Twilight star Reed wrote a note to the baby wondering “how it is possible to love someone so much already”.

Hi Little One I know you, but only because I feel you. How is it possible to love someone so much already? All I know for sure is it's the strongest feeling I've ever felt. We've been sharing this body for quite some time, and we've already experienced so much together. We can't wait to meet you... Love Your parents

Vampire Diaries actor Somerhalder on the other hand wrote: “In my 38 years on this earth I've never experienced anything more powerful and beautiful than this.”

To our friends, family, and rest of the world. In my 38 years on this earth I've never experienced anything more powerful and beautiful than this. I can't think of anything more exciting than this next chapter and we wanted you to hear this from us first. This has been the most special time of our lives and we wanted to keep it between the three of us for as long as possible so we could enjoy this time with each other and our little one who is growing so fast...because that's what they do, they grow so fast. Thank you for your kind energy. Love, Ian
