Hollywood couple Ian Somerhalder and NIkki Reed have shared their plans to build a family in the near future during an interview with Modern Luxury on October 27. The actor shared how blessed he is to have met his leading lady in real life and could not help but be thrilled about their future together.

During the interview, the 37-year old actor could simply not hide his deep love for his wife. He opened up about starting a family with Reed, which is eventually going to happen soon. He also gushed about the first time they saw each other, in which he definitely described it as a 'love at first sight.'

The Vampire Diaries star stated that he is so blessed to have found his wife who is the most caring and compassionate person he has ever met. Adding that he wakes up happy because of this. Moreover, he also said that Reed is someone who strives hard to find happiness and peace in the little things like sitting under a tree for few minutes, spending time on their horses and strolling around the lake.

And this might be just few of the reasons why the actor can't stop gushing about the Twilight actress. Since their marriage in 2015, the couple has been spending time on various charities together, in which the actor said, is their life goal together.

When asked about baby plans, Somerhalder said, "Oh, I will one day have amazing children with my beautiful wife. Absolutely, definitely." 

According to Celebuzz, there is a reason why the couple has yet to produce kids together until now. The actor revealed that he would not start a family with the 28-year old actress if he does not finish his work on The Vampire Diaries yet. Somerhalder portrays Damon Salvatore in The CW's supernatural drama and has been doing this for seven years.

This has been a big part on the actor's life but Ian Somerhalder assured that when this is through, he is absolutely going to start a family with wife Nikki Reed. This is going to happen real soon as the supernatural drama series announced that the eight season would be its last.
