Peros created a fake invite for a small dinner with Anna Wintour that she sent to Dobrev as a ruse to get her to the location. When Dobrev arrived, White was waiting with a photographer. After the proposal, the pair were joined by friends to celebrate.
White turned pro at skateboarding as a teen. He has competed in and won at the X Games in both skateboarding and snowboarding and is a three-time Olympic gold medalist in half-pipe snowboarding.
He retired from snowboarding after the 2022 Olympics and remains the record-holder for most gold medals won by a snowboarder.
ADVERTISEMENTDobrev is best-known for her role as Elena Gilbert on “The Vampire Diaries.”
The couple met at a Tony Robbins event in 2019 and dated for five years. This will be the first marriage for both.
Vogue was first to report the engagement.
