    Vampire Diaries co-stars Ian Somerhalder And Nina Dobrev have reportedly called time on their three year romance

    Vampire Diaries co-stars Ian Somerhalder And Nina Dobrev have reportedly called time on their three year romance.

    US Weekly have claimed that the former couple, who first met on the set of the hit Vampire Diaries series in 2011, have decided to go their separate ways, but a source claims the two are 'consummate professionals' and 'will continue to work together and remain best friends, which is where the relationship started.'

    While there has been no official comment from either camps, yesterday 34-year-old Somerhalder posted a cryptic tweet from deceased playwright Lillian Hellman saying: 'A thought for today: 'People change and forget to tell each other.'
