Ian Somerhalder Can’t Say Enough Sweet Things About Wife Nikki Reed

Ian Somerhalder just raised the bar for significant others everywhere with his latest adorably sweet comments about new wife, actress Nikki Reed. When asked by E! News to reveal the sexiest thing he sees after waking up in the morning, the Vampire Diaries star didn't hesitate: "My wife. The most beautiful human being in the world," he quickly replied. "I'm the luckiest man on the planet." (And we thought it couldn't get any more romantic than the couple's fairy-tale-esque wedding video.) "Nikki's incredible," Somerhalder said, before going on to describe her admirable work with rescue animals. "She's turned the house into an animal rescue for years — that's what she's done. Selflessly, literally giving her resources and her home and her family's time and her time to saving animals in need. It's actually quite extraordinary. We actually have nine animals at home — four dogs, three cats and two horses." While that is surely a lot of four-legged friends to have around the house, we're going to bet there's more than enough love to go around at the Reed-Somerhalder home. (And we have the pictures to prove it.)
