Shaun competed in his first Olympics in 2006 and since then, it had been a pretty successful run for him, until 2022.

Dobrev takes to Twitter to cheer up Shaun White

As White set up for his last snowboarding match of the Olympics, Nina, sadly, couldn’t be there for him. Owning to their busy schedules and quarantine rules, she couldn’t greet him at the stands. But, it never stopped her from cheering for this talented snowboarder.

The Vampire Diaries actress tweeted, “I couldn’t be more proud. Of everything you have accomplished over the last 20 years as a competitor and the man you have become,” stating that White is one of a kind.

Nina also delved into some giggles as she played with words. She tweeted “You will forever be the G.O.A.T. of snowboarding,” Dobrev added. “Not to mention you are also the G.(B). O.A.T. = Greatest Boyfriend Of All Time 😉 @shaunwhite.”
