The Hollywood baby boom continues. Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder are now parents of two, the former announced on her Instagram Story on June 29. “A few weeks ago we welcomed our son on what can only be described as one of the most beautiful days of my life,” the “Sleepy Hollow” actor wrote over an image of herself cozying with the baby, whose face is not visible. “Born at home in water and surrounded by so much love, in an instant my heart doubled in size.”
Reed noted that she has “very strong boundaries with social media, especially when it comes to children and what I choose to put out into the world.” That’s why, she said, “I wanted to share first so I can say thank you so much in advance for honoring those boundaries, and for sending positivity, kindness and LOVE.” She went on to thank her midwife and doctor for “helping to gently guide this sweet boy into the world.”
The couple confirmed their pregnancy news back in January. At the time, Somerhalder wrote on Instagram, “All I’ve ever wanted from the time I was a young boy was to have a big family. Thank you Nik for giving me that gift. ROUND TWO HERE WE GO!!!!!”
Reed and Somerhalder began dating in 2014 and married in 2015. They welcomed their first child, Bodhi, in 2017.
