Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder’s relationship definitely seemed like a whirlwind romance to a lot of fans. However, they were friends for a long time before they started dating. Nina Dobrev (Ian’s co-star and ex-girlfriend) is good friends with Nikki Reed. Nikki Reed was married to American Idol Star Paul McDonald.

Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder broke up May 2013. Ian and Nikki started to date a few months after she separated from her husband, Paul McDonald. Some of their first public outings included a trip to the Studio City Farmer’s Market and then they went for a jog in L.A.

Their first official red carpet outing was at the Teen Choice Awards in August 2014. Ian and Nikki hinted towards being engaged on Instagram in December 2014, but made it official in January 2015. Four months later, they said their “I do’s” and were officially married in April 2015.

Nikki and Ian travel a lot. Whether it is for work or for the numerous charity events they conduct, they are constantly on the move. How do they keep their amazing and healthy lifestyle? On Nikki’s Instagram, not only does she share a lot of pictures of her and her brother, Nathan August Reed, doing Acro Yoga (more about this in the lists), but she shows a lot of different homemade natural scrubs and drinks that they use.

Read the following list to see how Ian and Nikki workout even on vacation!

Hiking (Like On Christmas)

On December 25^th, 2017 Ian Somerhalder, Nikki Reed, and their baby girl all went for a hike. On Ian Somerhalder’s Instagram page he posted this picture and said, “Christmas hike with my beautiful wife and our little one... Merry Christmas from us. We hope today is about family, friends, health and happiness in no certain order. Thanks for all of your love and support in 2017. Let’s make 2018 a vintage year for humanity. Love, Us”

On Thursday January 8^th, 2015 Ian Somerhalder also posted a picture on his Instagram account of him and Nikki and their two dogs. He included the caption, “How I spent my New Year's Day- in a #tbt way- wow. Week one of 2015. Thank you all for giving me so much strength-we're ready to kick major ass and make a great future starting now . Happy 1st week of the New Year- I hope you're on track with making your future the most sustainable and harmonious one possible… Love, Ian”

Another example is a week prior to Ian and Nikki getting married (April 2015), they went for a hike in Santa Monica. Ian posted a picture of them on Instagram and then included this caption, “Getting ready for the day…setting intentions. Wow. Life.”

Acro-Yoga

Nikki Reed has said in many posts on her Instagram how much she loves learning Acro Yoga with her brother, Nathan August Reed, who teaches her. Some of those Instagram posts include:

May 23^rd 2017: “I just love acro yoga. I'm so drawn to it. I was introduced about a year ago and I'm obsessed. Reminds me of my gymnastics days as a kiddo. This is my gorgeous brother learning some of the basics. I'm going to say this now- I'm determined to become the most badass brother sister acro yoga duo on the planet :)! #Repost @nathanaugustreed”

October 15, 2017: “Namaste in the air with my partner in crime, Acro-teaching, adventure-loving best buddy for life @nathanaugustreed”. November 26 2017: “Morning session with @nathanaugustreed. Balance. I like the concept, but I’m still making friends with it :) Ok @iansomerhalder you’re up next...”

Feb 26, 2018: “How about the “F-yea we’ve got this” victory dance at the end? Early acro-park mornings with the crew. Flowing with my fav @moderntarzan + special instructions from his love @acrosprout, a sweet surprise guest appearance by my better half @iansomerhalder , and the most wonderful audience (Babe+Mama+Enzo) cheering us on.”

Meditation

On Ian Somerhalder’s Instagram on August 23^rd, 2016 he wrote, “Meditating with my girls... Figuring out how to get funds down to Louisiana to help get kids back in schools with the materials that they so need AND get food and supplies to the thousands of furry kids in in need. No filter needed @iamnikkireed , thanks for snapping this moment my beautiful partner in life.”

Nikki Reed has also done an interview with wellandgood.com, where one of her top 5 beauty tips was to meditate. Nikki said, “It’s quieting the mind. My mom always says to me, “Make sure you put as much time into your mind as you do your body.” Meditation is great, or just finding five minutes to sit by yourself and think about nothing. I’m learning how to do it in really busy environments.” If you want to keep your brain from aging, research shows that meditation can help with that!

Bike Rides

Nikki Reed on December 25, 2017 on her Instagram said, “There’s just no place I’d rather be...”

On July 4^th 2015 Nikki Reed posted a picture of her and Ian riding bikes saying, “Started this day with two hours on the trail climbing hills and then making almond milk. Now my dad is showing us his new rain catch system. Ha! Only one missing is @nathanaugustreed...Happy 4th!! #howweliketoparty”

Nikki Reed has also done an interview with wellandgood.com, where one of her top 5 beauty tips was to do outdoor workouts. Nikki says, “I have to get a workout in every morning and it always involves something outdoorsy—I mountain bike every day. I also love to climb a mountain. I remember shooting a film once where I had to stay really pale, and nothing makes me more sad than being told I can’t go outside and be in the sun!”

Swimming (Like At Lake Lanier GA)

Nikki Reed on July 21^st 2017 said, “Summertime in Georgia. One year ago today. Lake Lanier, we're missing you. Thank you for the sweet memories...”

In August 2015 they also shared photos on their Instagram of them enjoying a lake retreat! Ian Somerhalder shared a photo of Nikki, himself, and their dog Ira. It included a caption that said, “Retreat! Lake time with party of my little family…Smiling is truly one of the keys to life I’m convinced. Hope you smile today-it’s good to do.” In this photo Nikki had loose wet curls while she wore a white triangle bikini wrapped in a towel.

Walks With Their Baby Girl

Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed welcomed their first baby daughter, Bodhi, to the world in July 2017. Nikki and Ian were spotted for the first time, since Bodhi’s birth, in August 2017. Nikki and Ian were inside Whole Foods in Los Angeles grocery shopping. Baby Bodhi was wrapped around Nikki’s chest. Nikki had a mocha brown linen suit with beige pleats. It matched with the light beige baby wrap.

Then, in November 2017, Ian and Nikki were seen strolling the streets of Beverly Hills with baby Bodhi in her stroller. There was a lot of PDA and picture perfect family moments! Twenty-Nine year old Nikki Reed wore a white t-shirt and high waisted jeans. Not only did this show off her toned legs, but it showed off all the work she has done for her post baby body. Her brunette hair was styled in loose curls under a cream Panama hat and round sunglasses.

Running With Their Dogs

On one of their first outings, Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder went for a run and a hike in Las Vegas! Nikki Reed wore a black tank top with black leggings that had bright green stripes. Ian Somerhalder kept it simple wearing a cap with a long sleeve shirt and shorts.

On December 31st 2014, Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder were spotted running with their dogs. Nikki looked amazing as she ran with her dog Ira. She was make-up free wearing a pair of Navy Blue Nike workout leggings with a fuchsia sports bra underneath a pink long sleeve tee. Running, of course, is one of the best ways to keep in shape, along with simply walking. It keeps your cardio great, and builds up endurance. It is a go to for these two.

Dancing (Like At Coachella)

On April 11, 2015, Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder were spotted at Coachella in the Empire Polo Club in California.

On the 2^nd day of the event, Lea Michele and her boyfriend, Matthew Paetz, joined Nikki and Ian. Nikki wore The Frye Company Shoes while Ian danced the night away in Aldo Shoes.

On June 11^th, 2015, Nikki posted a video to her Instagram of Ian dancing with the caption, “#TBT to that time we made friends with the band playing in the hotel restaurant and decided to continue the jam session in the lobby. These guys are incredible- thanks for letting us crash your set. Live music makes me so happy, and you guys made our night. #JohnnyAndTheWalkers”.

On January 8^th, 2017, Nikki and Ian were on an elevator during an after party for the Golden Globes. When the door opens, the married couple were in the middle of a steamy kissing session. When they realized someone was watching them, they did the first thing that popped in their mind: they danced! Shoulder shimmies for everyone! If you want to see the hilarious moment, Instyle filmed it all!

Workout Dates

On one of their first outings, Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder went for a run and a hike in Las Vegas! Nikki Reed wore a black tank top with black leggings that had bright green stripes. Ian Somerhalder kept it simple wearing a cap with a long sleeve shirt and shorts.

Considering the fact that this was one of their first outings, you have to appreciate that they basically fell in love while working out. Sweet, isn't it? The couple that works out together, stays together. It probably helps that they do these kinds of things together; it would allow them to keep each other motivated, and ensure that each of them workout the best that they can. It can be tiring and boring to workout alone, but since they are able to do it together, they skip that annoying part.

Yoga Class

On December 30, 2014 Twenty six year old Niki Reed was spotted walking out of a Yoga Company with boyfriend, Thirty Six year old Ian Somerhalder.

Nikki Reed was wearing a forest green tracksuit with fluffy black Ugg Boots. Ian Somerhalder wore a Navy Wind Breaker with matching track suit bottoms. He also wore a beige baseball cap and trainers. Yoga is one of the best things anyone can do to stay fit and healthy, because not only does it help your body, but it also helps your mind. It is one of the things that people recommend the most, because of all the benefits that come with it. It also makes you stretch out your muscles, and makes you more flexible. It can improve muscle strength, work your heart, and calm your mind. All good things!

Working In The Water During 'Living Dangerously'

Water work is one of the best ways to undergo any kind of activity, whether you're swimming in it or working around it. And the duo does both. Besides swimming their hearts out in lakes, pools, and oceans, they do their best to also work on the water to make sure it stays clean--which really, is a workout on its own. Sure, sure, it's a bit of a stretch, but true nonetheless.

On Ian Somerhalder’s Instagram page on November 2, 2016 he wrote, “Me aboard the Alucia looking out at the beautiful ocean and looking forward to watching my episode of @yearsofliving with YOU ALL Tonight 10PM/9PM central!!!! My episode is coupled with Jack Black-and it's pretty incredible the journeys that we went down to produce these episodes! Please share this to everyone you know! I'm super proud of this, and very grateful for the experience."

Skiing

Nikki Reed and Ian Somerholder went skiing with their family at Sun Valley, Idaho on December 25, 2014. They are seen here with huge smiles on their faces, covered in Navy Blue Snow Jackets and huge Skiing Goggles.

Nikki Reed posted on Instagram saying, "When families combine and hearts collide there's only one thing to do. The butt wiggle. @nathanaugustreed you are a crowned video king- the fact that you did this on your snowboard for two and a half minutes is the best. My brother and my love all in one day, on one mountain- I'm so overwhelmed by all of the beauty that surrounds us. HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Love...us”

Ian Somerholder posted also on Instagram saying, "The happiest of holidays to everyone, may nothing but smiles, family time and reflection come from these moments. I'm grateful for all of the love this years for me..."

Swimming On Their Honeymoon

On April 26^th 2015, Ian Somerhalder (36) and Nikki Reed (26) tied the knot in Malibu California! How did they celebrate their honeymoon? By stopping at the beach in Tulum Mexico before they jetted off to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil! Swimming in any kind of water keeps your cardio up, it's one of the best ways to ensure your body stays fit.

The few days that they spent in Tulum Mexico, they stayed in an Oceanfront Suite at the boutique hotel Ana y Jose. A source informed People Magazine, “They enjoyed the beach and the ocean. They also went on several adventurous outings near their hotel. They seemed to have a great honeymoon.”

Rio de Janeiro had the newlyweds meeting up with some Vampire Diaries costars for press commitments. They even went on a double date with Phoebe Tonkin (The Originals) and Paul Wesley (Stephen from The Vampire Diaries)! They had Brazilian food and red wine at Pomar Organico.

Nikki And Ian Riding Horses

Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder love to ride horses and to save them. Nikki and Ian both adopted a horse together and named him Eagle. This is also when they moved in together three weeks into dating! On October 2014, Ian Somerhalder posted a picture on Instagram of Nikki and him on their horses, Eagle and Millie. Ian says, “The simple beauty of the quit country side loving on my kids with these amazing women…wow, love this. Needed this.”

On another Instagram horse post on December 31^st, 2017 by Ian Somerhalder he says, “Happy New Year from me and Joe. He really wants you to click the link in my bio and help creatures like him. We hope we can make this a vintage year for humanity and the world. With immense appreciation and respect, Ian and Joe. PS I didn’t paint that heart on his nose...That’s nature”

Swimming On Their  First Valentines Day

Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed shared their first Valentine’s Day together! In January 2015, they already teased in a post about being engaged. However, later in the month it was confirmed that they were actually engaged! Ian posted a picture of them on Valentine’s Day 2015, with a beautiful beach behind them.

He says, “I used to think this day was a conspiracy of chocolatiers and florists but I realize that taking a day out of our busy lives to celebrate the love in our lives is so important and should be every day. Celebrate love in your life-it's what makes the world go around. Thank you all for giving us so much love, it's so beautiful and so appreciated. Enjoy today-I just hope it isn't about spending lots of money. THATS the corporate side that makes me sad. Love should be simple but thoughtful- a gesture or loving act shouldn't be judged by its price tag...Love, Ian.”
