Speaking to PEOPLE, Hilton described this new experience as her "dream."

"It's always been my dream to be a mother and I'm so happy that Carter and I found each other," she said. "We are so excited to start our family together and our hearts are exploding with love for our baby boy."

In a previous interview with the outlet, she also talked about her growing desire to be a parent.

After walking down the aisle with the love of her life, the businesswoman started focusing on starting a family with Reum.

"I can't wait to start a family [with him]," she said. "It's something we've talked about a lot ever since we've been together.

"First the wedding, then the babies."

While sharing a playful moment with his then-fiancée, Reum also shared his pet peeves about his partner.

"The good and the bad of a creative mind like Paris', her creativity flows out in music, and art, and all these things. When it comes to keeping the house clean, her creativity also comes out," he said. "Every day is like a treasure hunt."

Agreeing with his assessment, Hilton replies, "I'm not the most organized person in the world."

"Yeah, I don't think we're going to change that," Reum says. "If that's the only reason why you're not perfect, it could be way worse."

Well, we're happy to see that things are going well for the couple. Congratulations!
