Ian Somerhalder's marriage to Nikki Reed brought about negative reactions from fans, which have always been in close monitor of the dashing the "Vampire Diaries" actor's love life. It is highly unlikely that all fans would agree on who should end up with Somerhalder. Nonetheless, the actor's girlfriends list is still a hot topic of gossip.
Fashion & Style noted that even before his "Vampire Diaries" popularity, the 35-year-old actor has been stealing hearts on and off camera.
"Young Americans" co-star Kate Bosworth had been one of the first female celebrities to be included in Ian Somerhalder's girlfriends list in 2002. "Lost" co-star Maggie Grace were also rumored to be dating for over a year around 2006 to 2007. Ashley Greene, another "Twilight" actress, was also briefly linked to Somerhalder in 2009.
"Vampire Diaries" co-star Nina Dobrev was the most popular gal in Ian Somerhalder's list of rumored girlfriends. Fans loved their on-screen and off-screen romance especially when the two confirmed their relationship in 2011. And although the two have eventually broken up, "Vampire Diaries" fans were still hoping that the two will get back together.
When rumors about Somerhalder and Nikki Reed hooking up surfaced in 2014, fans were enraged. Further reports from WDW confirmed that Somerhalder has married Reed on April 26, 2015.
The couple both played notable vampire roles in separate occasions - Somerhalder with "Vampire Diaries" and Reed with the "Twilight Saga" franchise. Maybe it's the vampire charm that brought the two together, but purportedly fans weren't digging it.

It appears that Ian Somerhalder's ex-girlfriend Nina Dobrev and Nikki Reed are friends and fans were accusing Reed of not being a good friend and stealing Somerhalder from Nina.
In a report by HollywoodLife an angry fan had a long list of not-so-nice things to say to Reed. Somerhalder stood up in his lady's defense with a long Instagram comment which, in summary, told fans to focus their energy elsewhere and stop sending negativity because he is happy with Reed.
