**NEW YORK, NY** – Olympic gold medalist Shaun White surprised actress Nina Dobrev with a romantic proposal at New York City’s Golden Swan restaurant in late October. White shared a heartwarming video of the event on Instagram, showing Dobrev’s shocked reaction as she entered the restaurant, decorated with a white rose arch and scattered petals.

The video captures White’s emotional proposal, telling Dobrev, “Being with you is the adventure of my life,” before getting down on one knee. A tearful Dobrev said “yes,” prompting a celebratory hug and kiss. In a humorous moment, White realized he’d forgotten to put the ring on her finger, causing both to laugh.

The couple celebrated with family and friends, popping champagne and sharing joyous hugs. White’s Instagram post detailed their journey, acknowledging challenges while emphasizing their strong communication and love. He expressed gratitude for Dobrev’s influence on his life and excitement for their future.

Dobrev later revealed to Vogue that White had cleverly orchestrated the proposal by using a fake invitation to a CFDA/Vogue dinner with Anna Wintour. Instead, she found White waiting to propose. The actress shared the news on her own Instagram with the playful caption, “RIP boyfriend, hello fiancé.” The pair, who began dating in 2019, are now excitedly planning their wedding.
