Nikki Reed is breaking her silence on her recent engagement to fiancé Ian Somerhalder!
While hosting the Third Annual Catdance Film Festival event at Sundance in Park City, Utah the other day, the 26-year-old Twilight actress gushed over her 36-year-old Vampire Diaries beau. "He's the best. He's the most thoughtful human being on the planet," Reed told E! News.
Reed played coy when asked about planning her and Somerhalder's wedding but teased that she's "sort of" started thinking about the details.
In addition to getting engaged, Reed and Somerhalder have already started expanding their family by adopting a bevy of animals together. Reed joked that having so many pets is good training for having kids.
"I think animals are great training for that," she laughed, adding, "You certainly learn how to clean up after yourself and pick up a lot of poop."
As for the upcoming Valentine's Day holiday, Reed shared, "I'm always working on Valentine's Day. It's so far away. That's the life of an actor, right? You can never plan a week in advance. You never know what you're gonna be doing. So I don't know, I hope it's a date day and not a work day, but if it is, it is."
So what romantic gift does Reed want from Somerhalder? "Anyone who knows me, my family, my friends, everybody, gifts to me are all about creating and making," she dished. "I like people to feel like they're getting something, that they can hold onto something that's also a memory and not just a thing. That's kind of my approach. I'm less for killing flowers on Valentine's Day and more for getting something hand-painted or written."
