Actress Nina Dobrev was recently photographed in New York City alongside model Dougie Joseph, sparking speculation about a new romance.

The sighting comes almost a year after Dobrev's engagement to Shaun White concluded.

During their summer stroll, Dobrev, known for her role in *The Vampire Diaries*, and Joseph were seen with their arms around each other, smiling as they walked through the city streets.

Dobrev was dressed in a navy slip dress and a matching baseball cap for the outing.

One photograph captured Joseph, who is also a co-founder of the brand Bondi Skin Co., kissing Dobrev's cheek while his arm was wrapped around her waist.

This public display of affection suggests a burgeoning relationship between the two.

As of now, neither Nina Dobrev nor Dougie Joseph have made any public statements regarding their connection.

This development matters to fans as it marks a significant personal update for Dobrev following her previous high-profile relationship.

Meanwhile, Shaun White has maintained privacy regarding his personal life since his separation from Dobrev in September.

However, the Olympian was reportedly seen with model Angela Garten in early June.

The two were observed enjoying a walk, shopping, and a bike ride in New York City on June 4, and were also seen sharing a hug inside a store.
