Nina Dobrev and Shaun White have split.

The actress, 36, and the pro snowboarder, 39, ended their engagement after five years together, People reported on Thursday.

“It was a mutual decision, and wasn’t an easy one, but it was made with love and a deep respect for one another,” a source close to the pair said about the split.

A week earlier, the pair took their dog, Maverick, to the Studio City Farmers Market in LA where they purchased goods and flowers. White held Dobrev’s hand as he carried a colorful bouquet of flowers, while Dobrev walked their pup on a leash.

On Sunday, Dobrev didn’t wear her five-carat diamond engagement ring to the red carpet premiere of the new film “Eternity” at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival.

The “Vampire Diaries” actress also unpinned her Oct. 2024 engagement post on Instagram. The post, which still lives on Dobrev’s Instagram feed, features three pictures from the romantic proposal, with the caption, “RIP boyfriend, hello fiancé.”

The stars initially revealed their engagement to Vogue at the time.

“I went into shock. I just froze and stared at him,” Dobrev told the outlet, explaining that she thought she was attending a CFDA/Vogue dinner with the publication’s editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour, when White popped the question at The Golden Swan restaurant in New York City’s West Village neighborhood.

After Dobrev said “yes,” she and White enjoyed champagne and caviar with friends, followed by takeout dumplings and Shake Shack.

Dobrev and White initially met during a brief encounter at an awards show in 2012 but weren’t formally introduced until 2019. They started dating that year and moved in together at the beginning of 2020.

“Nina’s just been so supportive and so amazing through this whole process for me,” White told People in 2022. “Through the pandemic, she was a lifesaver — she really made that time in my life special.” 

White also told US Weekly at the time, “We have common interests. The way in which we met really kind of strengthened our relationship. And the problems that we do face, they kind of fall away through communication.”

Earlier this year, Dobrev and White were forced to evacuate their LA home due to the wildfires.

Dobrev admitted in a Jan. 18 Instagram video that she felt “survivor’s guilt” over their house surviving the fires.

“Our home, although close to the fires, thankfully made it, but so many others were not so lucky,” she told fans.
