Ian Somerhalder feels uncomfortable watching his wife, Nikki Reed's film, 'Thirteen'

Ian Somerhalder, ‘The Vampire Diaries’ actor, humorously revealed that he feels uncomfortable watching his wife’s controversial film, ‘Thirteen,’ which is about underage substance and sexual abuse. While Nikki Reed did become famous, Ian can’t seem to accept the semi-autobiographical film that she wrote and starred in.

“As a dad now, I watch it and I go, I throw up in my mouth a little bit. But it’s incredible (that Nikki began her career) at 13,” Ian joked during a Thursday, April 24, interview on The Julia Cunningham Show.

Nikki Reed's childhood

Previously, Reed had mentioned that Ian avoids the rewatch of the film, with or without their two children - a daughter, 7, and a son, 1. “I really embraced the fact that I grew [and] I lived on fast food and diet sodas, and I smoked cigarettes and I have the most wonderful mom who raised two kids in Los Angeles, making $16,000 a year on her own,” she said according to US Weekly.

Furthermore, the ‘Twilight’ actress expressed that she honours her journey arc, transforming her life from when she was young to now. “I think it speaks volumes. … All of these were passion areas of mine that I pursued on my own, which, for anyone listening, curiosity is the best thing you can have. You keep that as a secret weapon in your pocket because as long as you remain curious and courageous, the transformation’s incredible,” Nikki added.

A life away from Hollywood

The duo have moved to Southern California in the rural areas of a farm away from the chaotic city of Hollywood after getting married. In 2023, Ian shared his gratitude for living a peaceful, secluded life, stating, “It's unbelievable when you see these amazing creature life forms. And how they all live on the farm together is really special,” during an interview with E! News. While he did mention that life can be tiring, a walk with dogs and family makes all of it worth it.
