Nina Dobrev and Shaun White's breakup is being disputed by a source, revealing fresh details about the split.
Nina Dobrev and Shaun White, a beloved power couple, have ended their five-year relationship, according to reports. The split, which occurred less than a year after their engagement in October 2024, has left fans surprised and saddened.
Neither Nina nor Shaun has directly addressed the breakup reports. Similarly, neither has personally commented on the split. However, there have been some indications of the change in their relationship. For instance, Nina Dobrev appears to have unpinned her engagement post from the top of her Instagram page and was spotted without her engagement ring in a public appearance.
The reasons for the breakup seem to be conflicting. One source claims that Nina wanted to get married and have kids, while Shaun was not on the same page. Another source, on the other hand, states that both Nina and Shaun wanted marriage and children, but the split wasn't one-sided. A subsequent report by People suggests that the breakup may have been due to differing views on marriage and having children.
Despite the breakup, Nina has been supported by her closest girlfriends who took care of her and regularly checked on her to comfort her. The last time Nina and Shaun were seen together was on Aug. 31, 2025, in Los Angeles.
Shaun White, meanwhile, shared an Instagram post celebrating his first trip to Beijing since the 2022 Winter Olympic Games, with comments on his post appearing to have been limited.
People published a second report on Sept. 16, 2025, citing multiple sources. The report stated that the split was a mutual decision made with love and respect.
BuzzFeed has reached out to Nina and Shaun's representatives for comment, but as of now, neither party has responded.
This news has left fans of the couple in shock, as they were often seen supporting each other at public events and posting affectionate messages on social media. The breakup serves as a reminder that even the strongest relationships can face challenges and come to an end.
