Nikki Reed agrees with the rest of the world, her engagement ring from Ian Somerhalder is absolutely stunning!
Reed and Somerhalder have had a whirlwind of a romance within the past year. The pair began dating in the Summer of 2014 and got engaged 6 months later in January 2015. Reed spoke to People magazine on Thursday at the Downy Unstopables home fragrance collection launch in New York City where she couldn’t help but gush about her stunning and ginormous engagement ring. “It’s so gorgeous, and I’m very lucky for many reasons, but I look at it every day and just think, ‘Wow.’ I don’t even know what to say,” the actress said. “Is that not the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen in your whole life?”
The future Mrs. Somerhalder couldn’t stop staring at her very unique, floral-inspired engagement ring. “I do this,” she says as she flashes her ring according to People. “And then I glance at it again.”
The very private pair who first stepped as a couple in July 2014, got very serious within the last 6 months and even started expanding their family. They both are very big animal lovers and already own two horses, four dogs and three cats. But even though the low-key duo prefers to remain silent on how the surprise proposal happened, the Twilight alum does enjoy sharing the love that she and Somerhalder share with both of their fan bases. “Love is love, and people see it, and they feel it, and everyone’s really attracted to that idea,” she explained.
“As much as we want to expose as much of that as we can, we also just really want to keep some things for us and our family. You don’t have the opportunity to do that very much with what we do for a living, so we’re going to do our best."
Somerhalder also isn’t afraid to share the love he has for his future wife on his Instagram account. His latest photo is of himself with Reed on a beach celebrating Valentine’s Day.
Reed has been previously married to American Idol musician Paul McDonald, whom she divorced in March 2014. Somerhalder’s last relationship was with his The Vampire Diaries co-star Nina Dobrev. They split in May 2013.
