Vampire Diaries Couple, Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley, Now Dating In Real Life?
Following their reunion in "The Vampire Diaries" season 8, rumor has it that Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley are now dating. It can be recalled that last month, Wesley ended his 4-year relationship with actress Phoebe Tonkin.
According to reports, the ex-girlfriend of "The Vampire Diaries" star Ian Somerhalder looked forward to working with Wesley again after taking a hiatus from the series. Dobrev and Wesley reportedly got even closer when they started working again. Some even claimed that the two were often spotted very sweet with each other during shooting breaks.
Since reports about Dobrev and Wesley's relationship surfaced, speculations about the actress causing the split between Wesley and Tonkin became rife. Although none of them has confirmed their relationship, the way they treat each other reportedly tells a lot about the real score between them.
Dobrev has always been close with Wesley. In "The Vampire Diaries," Wesley played Dobrev's one-time lover. Meanwhile, their co-star, Somerhalder. was Dobrev's boyfriend of three years. Despite their breakup in 2013, the two have remained good friends, but things reportedly changed when Somerhalder started dating Nikki Reed.
Reports about Dobrev and Somerhalder's good friendship going south surfaced when news about the latter dating Reed, who was Dobrev's friend, came out. Somerhalder and Reed's dating status was also said to be the reason why Dobrev decided to take a leave from the series. However, the actress was quick to claim that she and Somerhalder were good friends and that he was not the reason for her leaving.
A few weeks before "The Vampire Diaries" finale, Dobrev proved that everything was fine between her and her former boyfriend by posting a photo of her with Somerhalder and his now-wife, Reed.
"For the last few years we thought addressing any baseless rumors with silence was the best way... I now see that silence was taken as an opportunity to fill in the blanks with even more falsities, and juicier stories, and we, yes, WE, believe we have a moral responsibility to young girls to end that narrative, because at the end of all this, those girls are the ones we lose," she wrote in the caption.
