Close friends described their marriage as "perfect" and that Hilton was "head over heels in love." A confidante shared, "Paris has always wanted to be a mom and can’t wait. Carter is going to be the best dad…They are so happy." [7]
The couple had spoken about wanting a big family early on in their relationship. Just five months after their engagement, Hilton said on her This is Paris podcast:
“I can’t wait to have a family with him. It’s something that I’ve really been looking forward to."
Reum also told E! News:
“We’re going to have such an amazing family one day.” [8]

“I went through very traumatic experiences as a teen and I don’t ever want my children to have any similar experiences,” Hilton told People magazine about her choice to use surrogacy. [10]

Close friends have said Hilton plans to give her daughter only the best opportunities in life. A source told Us Weekly, "Paris will have nannies and assistants helping her, but she’ll be very hands-on. She’ll want her daughter to grow up without limits and give her every opportunity." [11]
The source added that Hilton has baby-proofed her $11.1 million Beverly Hills estate and plans to decorate the nursery herself.

Indeed, baby London will grow up accustomed to the spotlight with her famous parents. And if they decide to give her a sibling or two down the line, the Hilton-Reum brood is sure to become one of Hollywood’s hottest families.
