Nikki Reed, Ian Somerhalder Welcome Baby Girl! What Is Her Name?
Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder are officially parents.
According to E! News, Reed and Somerhalder welcomed a baby girl on July 25. It has been two weeks since Reed gave birth, but it was only today that her delivery was confirmed. The “Twilight” alum and the former “The Vampire Diaries” star named their child Bodhi Soleil Reed Somerhalder.
Before the “Thirteen” star gave birth, Reed revealed in an interview that she and her husband were planning to hide from the public eye and spend time together as a family once the baby arrived. Reed explained that they wanted the first month with their newborn to be exclusively theirs. She and Somerhalder do not want people to call or check on them, so they plan to cut off all communications and be fully present for their baby.

“We’ll take the baby’s first month for ourselves,” Reed told Fit Pregnancy and Baby. “After the baby arrives, we’re doing one month of silence. Just the three of us, no visitors, and we’re turning off our phones too, so there’s no expectation for us to communicate.”
In the same interview, Reed also revealed that her pregnancy gave her a new perspective, especially when it comes to taking care of and appreciating her body. When she got pregnant, the actress learned to pass on the things that she didn’t want to do in the first place. She also understood herself more, considering all the changes her body went through during her pregnancy.
For Reed, the hardest part of being pregnant was missing some of her favorite activities like mountain climbing, AcroYoga and riding her horse. To avoid feeling frustrated, she chose to enjoy these activities in a different way. For instance, instead of riding her horse, she took it for a walk.
Somerhalder’s wife also shared that she still sticks to her exercise routine. “I still do workouts. I take a 30-minute walk every day. Five days a week, I do 30 minutes of cardio, usually either jogging—which is now kind of a combination of jogging and scooting—or the elliptical,” she told Fit Pregnancy and Baby.
Somerhalder and Reed announced that they were expecting their first child on their Instagram in May. However, the couple kept the details of the pregnancy a secret, including the sex of their baby and the due date of the actress.
