Celebrity couple Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed, who are best known for their roles in The Vampire Diaries, could soon be having a newborn. This was confirmed by Somerhalder who revealed that he and his wife of nine months are "absolutely" working on having a baby.
Somerhalder, when quizzed by Entertainment Tonight when a newborn could be added to their family, disclosed that they are presently trying to have a baby. "Well, you know, those are the coolest little things in the world," Somerhalder said. "Standby."
In an earlier interview with ET, Somerhalder already revealed that he is excited to start a family with Reed. "It's the most incredible thing to be happy and secure in something," he said. "It's a pretty crazy time and place to bring a child into this turbulent and insane world - but I really can't wait to do it and really just love it," he added.
Somerhalder and Reed, who are also well-known animal activists, already have a number of pets who they refer to as their "furry babies." They have three cats, four dogs, and two horses.
Aside from the baby plans, Somerhalder, when asked if he is interested to compete against his wife on Spike TV's Lip Sync Battle, said that he would definitely give it a go on the show. "Yeah, I mean we do that every day anyways at home," he said.
"Well, [Nikki] is also a very talented musician and her voice is hauntingly beautiful, so she's got me by a long shot," he revealed. "I think I could probably attempt to hold my own for sure. It's actually a great format and what they've done [on that series] is actually super cool," he disclosed.
According to the Daily Mail, Somerhalder and Reed got engaged in January 2015 after a six-month rollercoaster relationship. In April of the same year, the couple tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony at Topanga Canyon of Malibu, California.
