Paris Hilton is shifting all of her focus on becoming a mom.

The hotel heiress, 40, has opened up about her plans of expanding her family, saying having a child is "definitely one of my top priorities."

"I cannot wait," she told E!'s Daily Pop, revealing that she would like "two or three" kids.

"I would want twins first," she added. "I don't know it's hard to say. I always wish I had an older brother because I feel like if I did then he would protect me and things like that in school."

After admitting she wants twins first, Hilton added that if it were up to her she'd want "a boy first."

It comes as Hilton revealed that she wouldn't want her future daughter to become an influencer.

Despite making a name for herself by being one of the world's original social media influencers, Hilton admits it's not a path she'd want her child to take.

Hilton first discussed her thoughts on social media on the Peacock docuseries, Paris In Love, which follows her and now-husband Carter Reum's engagement and three-day wedding.

The couple was talking about their future children, with Hilton telling her now-husband she hopes they don't spend too much time on their phones.

"I hope they're having so much fun they don't even want to be on the phone," she revealed.

Reum then brought up the idea of their children using social media, and Hilton, who has over 17 million Instagram followers, said she hoped her future daughter isn't interested in becoming an influencer who relies on the internet.

"That's literally the last thing I would want for my daughter," Hilton said of her child using social media. "Like, being an influencer in this world, I just think it's so toxic. Of course, there's the good and the bad, but a lot of it is just really bad."

In a recent interview with Insider, Hilton said she thinks social media creates pressure to be "perfect."

"I just feel that it can be toxic in some ways where I really wouldn't want my daughter in this world because I just think there's so much emphasis on being perfect," she said.

"And then having people be mean and write rude comments. I just wouldn't want my daughter to have to experience that."

"But I won't be able to control that obviously," she added. "If she does want to do it, she can, but I would rather her just be a nerd who wants to be a scientist or something."

Hilton and Reum married in a lavish three-ceremony wedding in November 2021. The pair tied the knot at Hilton's late grandfather Barron's $61.5million Bel-Air estate.
