Nina Dobrev is ‘devastated’ after Shaun White breakup, source claims
Nina Dobrev is heartbroken after the breakup with her former fiancé, Shaun White. Us Weekly had earlier confirmed on September 11 that the duo had ended their engagement nearly a year after his proposal. And now, sources have told the outlet, “The Vampire Diaries” actress is “devastated” post-separation with the Olympic snowboarder.
The insider further revealed that the breakup is even more hurtful as the former couple “had finally started planning the wedding and things were in motion.” Although the breakup is “still very fresh,” the 36-year-old star is being “supported by her closest girlfriends.” They have constantly “been checking in on her.”
Dobrev and White started dating in 2019 and even moved in together at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. They made their relationship official on Instagram in May 2020. In October 2024, the duo shared their engagement news with the world. At the time, White popped the question during a surprise dinner with a five-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond ring.
However, their relationship status has been under scrutiny over the past few months as they stopped appearing together on social media and at events. Contrary to the rumors, the former couple “were very loyal to each other” during their time together.
The insider clarified that “there was no cheating at all during the course of their five-and-a-half-year relationship.” Per PEOPLE source, the breakup “was a mutual decision.” Although it “wasn’t an easy one, but it was made with love and a deep respect for one another.”
