Well, it definitely looks like Nina Dobrev is dating model Dougie Joseph. (In case you were wondering, it has been nearly a year since Dobrev and Shaun White announced the end of their engagement.) Rumors of a Dobrev and Joseph romance began in late June, when Deuxmoi spotted Dobrev and a “mystery man” walking around New York City — including at the Knicks victory parade. Now, new photos from July 11 provide a bit more definitive evidence that these two are a thing for real.
The paparazzi shots show Dobrev and Joseph strolling through NYC with Dobrev’s dog, Maverick, in tow. Dobrev kept it casual in a navy slip dress, flats, and a baseball cap, while Joseph paired his baseball cap with a white tee and a sweater over his shoulders. In all of the pics, Dobrev and Joseph look extremely cuddly, with Joseph kissing Dobrev’s cheek in two of them. Neither party has confirmed the relationship, but — and I’m no body-language expert — this looks pretty relationship-y to me.
Now, is the relationship serious enough that Dobrev could bring him as her date to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding? That is a whole different question.
