Nina Dobrev Deserves Gold Medal for Olympics Gift She Gave Shaun White

White and Dobrev, 33, have been dating for about two years. Last month, she gushed about her boyfriend’s upcoming Olympic return in an interview with E!’s Daily Pop.

“I am really excited for him,” she said. “Just to get into the Olympics at all is one of the hugest accomplishments, let alone to get in five times. I’m so excited. I’m so proud of him.”

White arrived in Beijing last week and has been sharing several behind-the-scenes photos. He told the Today show in the interview, broadcast hours after the 2022 Olympics opening ceremony, that he thinks this will be his last Olympic Games.

“The more I talk to people, they keep trying to inspire me to keep going,” said the athlete, who made his Olympics debut in 2006. “But I’ve had an amazing run and I’m so thankful for everything I’ve achieved and I’m ready to pass the torch onto the next generation.”
