Here’s How Shaun White ‘Pranked’ Nina Dobrev Into Marrying Him; Inside Their Surprise Betrothal

As an ardent fan of the captivating duo, Nina Dobrev and Shaun White, I must say their love story is nothing short of a fairy tale come to life! The way Shaun orchestrated his proposal, turning a seemingly ordinary meeting into an unforgettable surprise, speaks volumes about his creativity and dedication.


Shaun White devised several strategies for proposing to Nina Dobrev; however, it turned out that the proposal he eventually made was actually a joke, making the unexpected betrothal all the more thrilling. Known for her role in The Vampire Diaries, Dobrev thought she was arranging a meeting with Anna Wintour when, in fact, White popped the question. Overwhelmed by joy, she later admitted that she had momentarily fainted during the proposal.

As reported by Vogue, White’s initial proposal idea for a summer getaway never materialized due to an injury Nina sustained while riding a dirt bike. Subsequently, he intended to propose at The Earthshot Prize Ceremony in Cape Town in early November, but that plan did not come to pass either.

Despite Shaun’s attempts to keep things under wraps, the Love Hard actress and her friends sensed that something significant was imminent. Given Nina’s affection for surprises, Shaun found himself compelled to alter his strategy.

He came up with an inventive idea. To pull off a practical joke on Nina, he arranged a fictitious meeting with Anna Wintour. In fact, he went so far as to have his publicist send her a fake invitation for a CFDA/Vogue dinner with Wintour. Moreover, Shaun hired someone to handle his glam and designed the stage in New York at The Golden Swan.

Upon my arrival at the event, I was taken aback to discover Shaun and the photographers standing where I expected to find Anna. My anxiety had been mounting due to arriving a few minutes late. To express my concern, I shared with the outlet, “I was frantically worried that Anna was waiting for me.

When White knelt down, she was struck with a sudden, chilling surprise and merely stared at him, she explained. Momentarily bewildered, she inquired, “Does that mean Anna isn’t present then?

Dobrev posted pictures on Instagram to remember that special night, featuring her and her partner elegantly dressed in Chanel and Ralph Lauren amidst flowers and candles. Her caption read, “Farewell boyfriend, welcome fiancé.

On that specific instance, Nina Dobrev reminisced, events took a wild turn, leaving her struggling to remember what happened subsequently. However, she distinctly remembered Shaun White speaking words of comfort to her. The duo mentioned they concluded their romantic night by ordering from Shake Shack and dumplings, preparing for their impending wedding.
