Nina Dobrev and Shaun White Make Out In Mexico
Health and government officials recommend social distancing during the global coronavirus pandemic, but lovebirds Nina Dobrev and Shaun White are not heeding that advice as the couple were spotted in Mexico having a very public display of affection.
Page Six reports that the 31-year-old actress and the 33-year-old Olympian were snapped at a beach in Tulum, Mexico frolicking. Dobrev was seen piggy-backing on White’s back as well as making out with the athlete in the waves.
Us Weekly says the couple also played volleyball with friends on the beach when they weren’t being publicly affectionate with each other. The public display happened two days after the couple were previously seen cuddling on the beach.
The affectionate display is a natural progression for the couple, who first made their relationship Instagram official last May. Dobrev even shared a video of herself giving White a haircut, joking that she was now going to add “hairdresser” to her resume.
Quoting a source, Us Weekly says the relationship between the two escalated as they were quarantining and living together. The source added that the couple found themselves super compatible and supportive of each other’s careers.
Before meeting each other, Dobrev was in a relationship with the director and screenwriter Grant Mellon. She has also been previously involved with her The Vampire Diaries co-star, Ian Somerhalder.
White, on the other hand, was dating Phantogram lead singer Sarah Barthel for five years before breaking up with her in 2019.
Of course, Dobrev and White are far from being the only celebrity couples to catch the public’s attention during the pandemic. The most prominent couple to grab the headlines has been Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly, who also recently made their relationship Instagram official.
In the Instagram post made last month by Machine Gun Kelly, he and Fox have their arms around each other and their tongues out. Kelly declares in the comment section that he has waited an eternity to find Fox.
Before the post, the couple were frequently seen together, such as when they had a romantic date at Nobu restaurant in Malibu. Fox and Kelly have also been spotted cuddling in one of the Instagram posts of Randall Emmett, the director of the film Midnight in the Switchgrass where Fox and Kelly first met each other.
Another celebrity pair to hit the headlines is Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz. The son of David and Victoria Beckham recently made public his engagement with actress Peltz.
Former One Direction member Niall Horan has also been suspected to have found his “lockdown love” in Amanda Wooley, a Nicholas Kirkwood shoe buyer.
