Nina Dobrev and Nikki Reed Put Those Feud Rumors to Rest

Over the past few years, gossip blogs and tabloids have delighted in splashing headlines about a dramatic love triangle between married actors Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder, and his ex (and former co-star on the Vampire Diaries) Nina Dobrev. But last night, all three took to social media to put the rumors to rest.

After going to dinner as a group last night to celebrate the end of Vampire Diaries (for which Dobrev will return), all three stars shared a message with the gossip bloggers of the world: stop pitting women against each other.

Somerhalder revealed it was the first time Reed and Dobrev actually met for dinner, “after years of websites pretending these two badass ladies knew each other well.”

Reed elaborated on the tabloid coverage, saying they each had responded to the “baseless rumors” with silence, but now want to address the issue head-on. “I now see that silence was taken as an opportunity to fill in the blanks with even more falsities, and juicer stories, and we, yes WE, believe we have a moral responsibility to young girls to end that narrative, because at the end of all of this, those young girls are the ones who lose.”

Dobrev captioned her post: “Can’t believe how time flies. Farewell dinner with team Somereed! So good catching up with these goofballs. All [love].”
