The Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev just took her love story with Olympic legend Shaun White to an epic level with a surprise proposal that¡¯s straight out of a fairytale! And no, that¡¯s not the only tea, the couple, together since 2019, got engaged in New York City after two proposal attempts were interrupted¡ªfirst by a dirt-biking accident that left Nina with an injured knee, then by Nina feeling under the weather in Cape Town. Well, talk about tough luck. Determined to finally pop the question, Shaun pulled out all the stops with a big-city proposal that wowed the internet.
Nina Dobrev is engaged!
The grand setup involved a clever twist: Shaun enlisted his publicist to send Nina a fake invitation to an intimate CFDA/Vogue dinner with Anna Wintour, no less, at the Golden Swan restaurant. Thinking she was heading to an exclusive event, Nina dressed in head-to-toe Chanel and made her way to the restaurant¡¯s private room, only to find Shaun waiting with a stunning 5-carat diamond ring beneath an archway of white roses. The actress was completely shocked and, in her own words, ¡°froze¡± as Shaun delivered the romantic words she later said she ¡°blacked out¡± on, though she remembers them being ¡°perfect.¡±
RIP boyfriend¡
Naturally, Nina had to share the news on Instagram with a caption that perfectly captured her humour and happiness, writing, ¡°RIP boyfriend, hello fianc¨¦.¡± The two, who made things official in 2020 and moved in together before the pandemic, have been super vocal about their deep bond, with Shaun hinting back in April that a proposal might be on the horizon. He shared, ¡°After the Olympics, I can finally just have fun, be together, and support each other,¡± setting the stage for this heartwarming milestone.
