Nina Dobrev & Shaun White's Relationship Timeline

Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev and Olympic snowboarder Shaun White just made their relationship Instagram ~official~ with a self-quarantine haircut snap. The 31-year-old actress captioned the photo, "Adding to resume: hairdresser ," flashing a pair of scissors while the 33-year-old snowboarder grimaces. In the next slide, she holds a pile of hair she cut off, which Shaun playfully side-eyes.

The new couple look like they're having tons of fun staying at home together, but when exactly did their romance start? Here's Nina Dobrev and Shaun White's full relationship timeline:

March 2020: Nina and Shaun are first spotted together.

At the end of March, when Los Angeles' stay-at-home order when into effect, the pair were spotted bike riding together in Malibu, along with Nina's dog. E! News reported they were "spending time together," but not officially dating.

"Nina and Shaun have been spending a lot of time together recently," a source told the publication. "Their relationship doesn't have an official title right now, but that's pretty normal for Nina."

The source added that Nina is a private person, and won't post photos of a new beau until it's official: "She is very careful about posting photographs together because she wants to ease into things naturally and organically." So Nina's new snap is definitely a BFD.

Mid-April: They post a sneaky grocery-washing video.

A little less than a month later, Nina posted an IGTV video showing fans how to wash groceries during the pandemic, but instead of using her arms, she used Shaun's. As she narrates the hand-washing video, he washes the groceries, unscrews a bottle of juice, and tries to get her to drink it. Some fans noticed Shaun's tattoo, leading them to believe the pair quarantined together (which everyone now knows they didand still are). "Usually I like to wash before I drink it, but sometimes you break the rules," she said in the video.

Early May: A source spills the relationship tea.

At the beginning of May, a source close to the couple told People that yes, they're dating. "Their friends were surprised at first about the relationship, but now that theyve seen them together it actually makes a lot of sense," the source said. "Theyre both goofy and have a similar sense of humor and are super adventurous. They have plenty in common." Awww!

End of May: Nina and Shaun share matching #QuarantineCuts pics.

The pair posted matching Instagram photos to commemorate Shaun's quarantine haircut. Shaun's post also included a time-lapse video showing Nina going all-out on the cut, separating his hair into sections and combing it in a few different directions.

So yes, she should absolutely add hairdresserand maybe girlfriend of the year?to her resume.
