Former skateboarder and Olympic snowboarder Shaun White and actor Nina Dobrev are getting married.
White’s publicist Jennifer Peros confirmed the engagement Wednesday.
White popped the question last weekend at The Golden Swan, a New York restaurant and presented Dobrev with a five-carat diamond ring.
White turned pro at skateboarding as a teen. He has competed in and won at the X Games in both skateboarding and snowboarding and is a three-time Olympic gold medalist in half-pipe snowboarding. He retired from snowboarding after the 2022 Olympics and remains the record-holder for most gold medals won by a snowboarder.
Dobrev is best-known for her role as Elena Gilbert on “The Vampire Diaries.”
The couple met at a Tony Robbins event in 2019 and dated for five years. This will be the first marriage for both.
Vogue was first to report the engagement.
