Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed have long been admired as a couple, and their recent announcement solidified their loving family of four. In June, they joyfully revealed the arrival of their son, adding to their happiness. Sharing the heartwarming news on Instagram Stories, Reed described the birth as an incredibly beautiful day. The couple, who got married in 2015 in an intimate ceremony, already have a daughter named Bodhi Soleil.
It’s evident that Somerhalder has a preference when it comes to his romantic interests, favoring brunette actors who portray vampire femme-fatales. Reed famously portrayed Rosalie Cullen in the Twilight franchise. Prior to his relationship with Dobrev, Somerhalder found comfort in the company of yet another brunette actor from a vampire-themed series. The actress in question is Ashley Greene, known for her role as Rosalie’s sister, Alice Cullen, in the Twilight film franchise.
Ian Somerhalder Was Caught Making Out With Ashley Greene
According to Just Jared, romance rumors between Ian Somerhalder and Ashley Greene ignited in 2009 when they were spotted attending a concert together in Vancouver. A source mentioned to Life & Style at the time, as reported by Just Jared, that Greene was present with Somerhalder, and they appeared to be a couple.
There were displays of affection as they seemed genuinely happy and shared kisses throughout the show. Interestingly, some of Greene’s Twilight co-stars, including Nikki Reed, were also present at the concert, witnessing the sweet moments between Ian and Ashley, making the evening all the more interesting.
As reported by PopSugar, the fling between Greene and Somerhalder didn’t endure for long. The actor didn’t appear to dwell on the split, nowhere near as much as he invested in his relationship with Reed. In 2015, Greene expressed her joy to People Magazine when Reed and Somerhalder exchanged vows, showcasing her excitement for their newfound happiness.
“I’m so excited for [Nikki],” Greene said. “I saw her at Coachella and she was just glowing, and now, I mean, I get why. She’s just so happy. That’s what you have to find in life and when you do find it, I think you should run with it and I think that’s what she did.”
Did Ian Somerhalder Affect Ashley Greene And Nikki Reed’s Relationship?
Although Ashley Greene openly celebrated Nikki Reed’s romance with Ian Somerhalder, their friendship wasn’t always smooth sailing. In a 2022 reunion on Greene’s podcast The Twilight Effect, the former co-stars delved into their once-rocky relationship.
Assuring fans that the issues had nothing to do with Ian Somerhalder, Greene revealed that they experienced periods of being on good terms and then not wanting anything to do with each other, only to reconcile again.
