Nikki Reed is pregnant with her and Ian Somerhalder's first child, the couple just announced on Instagram.

'To our friends, family, and rest of the world. In my 38 years on this earth I've never experienced anything more powerful and beautiful than this,' he wrote, in an image of himself kissing Reed's baby bump. 'I can't think of anything more exciting than this next chapter and we wanted you to hear this from us first. This has been the most special time of our lives and we wanted to keep it between the three of us for as long as possible so we could enjoy this time with each other and our little one who is growing so fast...because that's what they do, they grow so fast. Thank you for your kind energy.'

Reed posted the same photo with a separate message to her future child: 'Hi Little One, I know you, but only because I feel you,' she wrote. 'How is it possible to love someone so much already? All I know for sure is it's the strongest feeling I've ever felt. We've been sharing this body for quite some time, and we've already experienced so much together. We can't wait to meet you...Love, Your parents.'

The two were married in 2015, bringing together the epic worlds of Twilight and The Vampire Diaries and causing fans to lose their s**t.

Congrats guys!
