Canadian actress Nina Dobrev has dismissed the rumors that she is dating American actor and singer Zac Efron, saying they are just friends.
After the Vampire Diaries alum and Shaun White ended their relationship after five years, Nina was seen vacationing alongside Zac and their friends Miles Teller, Keleigh Teller, and Chace Crawford.
This trip sparked romance rumors between her and Zac; however, Nina, 37, denied that it was the start of something new for the pair.
In an interview with TMZ, the actress categorically denied the rumors about dating Zac Efron. When she was asked if she and the High School Musical alum were just friends, she replied, Yes.
Nina makes it clear they’re just pals, and you gotta see the clip ’cause her laugh says it all — any notion of them being more than buddies is straight-up ludicrous.

She also opens up a bit about everything going on … mainly navigating her recent split in the public eye, and how she’s staying optimistic through it all.
Days before Nina and Shaun’s breakup was confirmed, the actress raised some eyebrows by sharing a cryptic TikTok where she lip-synced to a video about other women trying to “fix” a man.
Two days later, Nina attended the Toronto International Film Festival premiere of the film Eternity without the 5-carat diamond engagement ring Shaun, 39, had given her during their candlelight proposal.
