Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed are “close” to welcoming their second child.
“We’re in the home stretch, big time, so it’s really, really special,” Somerhalder, 44, exclusively told Page Six at a party for his and Paul Wesley’s whiskey brand Brother’s Bond Bourbon and the Tennis Channel in Miami on Tuesday.
The “Vampire Diaries” alum added that being a parent is the “best thing ever” and went on to rave about how Reed, 34, is handling the pregnancy.
“I will say, men just have no clue what women go through and it is just so amazing to see,” Somerhalder said. “She’s just such a goddess. You see this life happening and you’re like, ‘Wow, you’re doing this.’”
The “Lost” alum — who already shares 5-year-old daughter Bodhi with his wife — said it is a “really special time” for their family.

Somerhalder said that his little girl is excited to be a big sister and that she “loves it” and “can’t wait.”
“She talks to this kid more than anyone, so this kid’s going to know Bodhi’s voice more than anyone,” the actor shared before joking that he is actually a bit concerned with how much his second baby is learning from their older sibling.
“When you have a 5-year-old, they yell at you a lot, so I hope this kid doesn’t pick up too much that you can yell at your parents,” the soon-to-be father of two said with a laugh.
Somerhalder and Reed confirmed via Instagram in January that they were expecting another child. They have not yet revealed their baby’s sex or due date.
“All I’ve ever wanted from the time I was a young boy was to have a big family,” the “Anomaly” star captioned a sweet photo of him and his spouse at the time.
“Thank you Nik for giving me that gift. ROUND TWO HERE WE GO!!!!!”
He added, “Thank you thank you to this incredible human for the gift of life and love, for being the most incredible mom and working so hard to make dreams come true!!!”
Somerhalder and Reed have been married since 2015. They tied the knot after just one year of dating.
