Just weeks after her split from Olympic champion Shaun White, Nina Dobrev has been spotted sparking romance rumours with a familiar face: her former The Final Destination co-star, Zac Efron.
The pair were seen sharing an intimate and laughter-filled lunch date at the popular celebrity haunt, Pace restaurant in Laurel Canyon, Los Angeles. An onlooker reported that the chemistry between the two actors was palpable, describing their interaction as "very flirty" and "full of deep conversation."
A Cozy Reunion Fuels Speculation
Dobrev, 35, and Efron, 36, looked every bit the cozy couple during their lengthy meal. The Bulgarian-born actress was animated, laughing and chatting enthusiastically with Efron, who listened intently. Their easy-going rapport suggested a close connection, leading many to wonder if this was more than just a catch-up between old friends.
The outing comes hot on the heels of Dobrev's breakup with three-time Olympic gold medallist Shaun White. The couple had been together since 2019 before calling it quits earlier this year.
From Co-Stars to Close Friends?
Nina and Zac have known each other for over a decade, having starred together in the 2011 film The Final Destination. They have remained friends in the years since, occasionally supporting each other's projects and being spotted in the same social circles.
This very public lunch, however, has sent gossip mills into overdrive. Their body language and the intimate nature of their meeting have fans and tabloids alike questioning if a revenge romance is on the cards for Nina following her high-profile split.
For now, representatives for both actors have remained silent on the nature of their relationship, leaving the world to watch, wait, and speculate on whether this Hollywood reunion could turn into something more.
