Nina Dobrev Gives An Upsetting Update On Her Plans To Cheer For Shaun White In Person At Beijing Winter Olympics 2022

Superstar snowboarder Shaun White has already announced that this is likely going to be his last Olympics. The 35-year-old has been a dominant presence in the sport for the past decade and his retirement is bound to cause sports fans to feel sad. And his last dance is set for Beijing, where the Winter Olympics 2022 are currently underway.

With the superstar having his events scheduled across the mega-event calendar, it could be that he leaves on a winning note. But if it is your last dance, where is your partner? Well, still back at home, unfortunately. In an interview, Nina Dobrev revealed why she was unable to make it to Beijing.

The Vampire Diaries star and Shaun White have reportedly, been in a relationship since February 2020. The actress took to bidding him farewell for his sports sojourn in an Instagram story that generated some waves too. However, the question on everyone’s minds was simple and succinct. How was it that Nina Dobrev did not travel to China to cheer on her beau? Especially considering that this may be the last time we see White on the slopes?

Dobrev, in a media interaction regarding her upcoming release, spoke a bit about why she has not been able to travel.

Out of Nina Dobrev’s hands

Nina Dobrev was quick to clarify that it was not her decision to not go. “Unfortunately, it didn’t work out with the visas and spectators aren’t allowed at the Olympics due to COVID regulations”, said Dobrev. Possibly implying that it would have been futile even to go; as she would not have been able to sheer for White from the sidelines. “I’ll be cheering from home, “ she added. Clearly, keeping Dobrev from going has done nothing to affect the support for her partner in his events.

She had spoken to several media outlets in the past to speak about how excited she was for White. Dobrev 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.”

Shaun White, on the other hand, will be excited to get things going. White is all set to be the oldest U. S halfpipe rider in the history of the Winter Games. He’ll be joined on the men’s halfpipe team by Taylor Gold, Chase Josey, and Lucas Foster, who will all be itching to get the gold home to America.

Nina Dobrev will probably be waiting for Shaun White’s return excitedly, but until then, we wish White all the best for his run at the Beijing Winter Olympics in 2022.
