Love is officially in the air! Nina Dobrev and Shaun White are taking their relationship to new heights with a romantic engagement announced this Wednesday. The two revealed the details exclusively to Vogue, sharing that Shaun proposed at New York City’s Golden Swan earlier this month.
In classic Shaun style, he put together an elaborate plan to get Nina, who wasn’t feeling well and initially didn’t want to go out, to the proposal spot. With a bit of help from his publicist, he sent her an “invitation” to a faux CFDA/Vogue dinner with none other than Anna Wintour. “He made the invite look so legitimate,” Nina shared. When she arrived, though, the room was silent except for Shaun and a photographer standing by an arch of white roses. Stunned, Nina admitted, “I went into shock. I just froze and stared at him.”
In the glow of her “yes,” the couple celebrated until the early hours with friends, topping off the evening with Shake Shack and dumplings after realizing they’d forgotten to eat. Shaun’s stunning Lorraine Schwartz ring, photos of the proposal, and the caption “She said YES 💍♾️” later made their way to Instagram, while Nina playfully wrote, “RIP boyfriend, hello fiancé 💍♾️.”
For years, fans speculated on the couple’s engagement, but now it’s official—Nina and Shaun have been together since 2020 and, after months of ring-hiding, she’s finally ready to wear it loud and proud! Congratulations to the happy couple!
