Nina Dobrev and Zac Efron’s relationship has attracted attention during their Italian holidays, but sources have stopped rumors that something romantic could be happening between them. Both stars have been released, with Dobrev and her ex-Shaun White recently ending their engagement.
On September 22nd, a source told Weekly: “Nina and Zack haven’t been dating and have been good friends for over 10 years. Their friends always joke that they should date, but that’s not what’s happening.
The insider also shared that Dobrev has been “leaning towards family and friends recently” after his recent breakup.
“She really feels a lot of love and support,” the source said. “Everyone has lifted her spirit. She was in a better place after a bit of separation from Sean.”
Speculation about Dobrev’s connection with Efron began last week after they were discovered on an Italian yacht alongside friends Chace Crawford, Miles Teller and Keleigh Teller. Over the weekend, they followed the Daily Mail to attend the wedding of Southern French high-tech billionaire Brad Garlinghouse.
