Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed are adding to their family. 

The longtime couple has revealed that they are expecting their second child. They took to their Instagram accounts on Monday (January 9) to share their joyful news. 

They both shared the same photo of Nikki cradling her growing baby bump while holding Bodhi, their five-year-old daughter. 

On his Instagram account, Ian wrote alongside the photo:

“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!!!!! Thank you thank you to this incredible human for the gift of life and love, for being the most incredible mom and working so hard to make dreams come true!!! When I was taking this photo, I could not believe what I was seeing through that viewfinder. There’s nothing more beautiful…

All I ask is that everyone sends positivity to Nik & I during this time. The social space can be a strange one, but we can also make it a great one.”

Nikki wrote on her own Instagram with the photo:

“2023 celebrating life🖤Years of dreaming, manifesting and praying over this very moment. So much love. What a gift. As all of you know, I have very strong boundaries with social media, especially when it comes to children and what I choose to put out into the world. 

Thank you so much for honoring that, and for sending positivity and kindness and LOVE. Some things are too good not to share :).”

Ian and Nikki began dating back in 2014. They wed in 2015, and welcomed their first child, Bodhi, in 2017.
