Ian Somerhalder dating Nikki Reed confirmation came from his Instagram as "Vampire Diaries" cast spoke highly of the "Twilight" actress in a social media post.
Ian Somerhalder shared on Instagram a photogram of "3 of the most beautiful ladies in the universe," referring to Nikki Reed and their two dogs.
The HollywoodLife said that the Instagram photo is a confirmation that Ian Somerhalder is dating Nikki Reed.
"Ian is officially off the market, and although we are so sad about it, we are happy for him as well!" the website said.
The photo also came with quite a long post:
"A day with 3 of the most beautiful ladies in the universe... Wow smiling is such a beautiful part of the human experience-I highly recommend it. Congrats to our little Neitczhe here-1 year ago today, to the minute, you brought 5 beautiful puppies into this world-thank you for your amazing contribution to all of our lives. However, welcome to the wonderful world of being spayed-The world does not need any more puppies, we kill millions and millions per year. These two beautiful creatures right here in this photo or highly intelligent, highly emotional and capable of more love than you can you can ever imagine. The ones that are in shelters are the same-let's adopt them. @iamnikkireed your recent work with Gilt benefiting the @aspca is truly truly extraordinary. Thank you for giving so much of your life and for being a strong voice for those whom can speak. My hat is off to you. You amaze me. Love, Ian"
The report of Ian Somerhalder dating Nikki Reed wasn't exactly taken wholeheartedly by some fans on board the Ian Somerhalder-Nina Dobrev train as they bashed the "Twilight" star on social media. This prompted a response from the "Vampire Diaries" actor in an earlier Instagram post.
"You HATE NIKKI REED? Really? Do you know her? Hmmmm, I'm not sure that you do. Look on her Instagram feed or twitter and all you will see is a compassionate and beautiful human being. Please put your negative energy elsewhere. You don't even know the person you're talking about," he wrote.
