Paul Wesley has provided fans with an update on Nina Dobrev’s recovery following her e-bike accident last month. The Vampire Diaries star took to social media to share the latest news about his co-star’s condition.
Wesley, who played Stefan Salvatore on the hit series, expressed his relief and happiness over Dobrev’s successful surgery. “Nina is doing well and is in good spirits,” he wrote. “Her surgery went smoothly, and she’s on the road to recovery.”
Dobrev herself has been keeping her followers informed about her progress. She recently posted on Instagram, thanking everyone for their support. “Surgery was a success,” she wrote. “Thank you to everyone who has been sending kind messages, thoughts, prayers, and good vibes. I have been feeling the support and positive energy. It means more than you will ever know.”
In her Instagram Story, Dobrev shared her apprehensions before the surgery. “Anyone else get scared before surgery? I’m such a baby when it comes to needles, blood, or procedures of any kind,” she admitted.
The actress first revealed her accident on May 20, posting a photo of herself on an e-bike followed by an image of her in a hospital bed with a neck brace and a splint on her leg. “How it started vs how it’s going,” she captioned the post.
Many celebrities have sent their well-wishes, including Sarah Michelle Gellar and Zooey Deschanel. Dobrev’s boyfriend, Olympian Shaun White, also showed his support, commenting, “Just keeping things on brand.”
In the weeks following the accident, Dobrev has shared more about her recovery journey. “Life looks a lil different lately,” she wrote in a recent post. “Get ready for the leg content because that’s all I’ve got in my camera roll these days.”
Wesley also mentioned how Dobrev’s sense of humor has remained intact despite the ordeal. “She’s been making jokes and keeping her spirits high,” he said. “It’s great to see her staying positive.”
Dobrev’s recovery has included plenty of rest, visits to the doctor, and support from White. She posted a photo of herself lying in bed with her dogs and another of White dancing around in a sweatshirt featuring her TVD character, Elena Gilbert.
Her original post on May 20 showed her in a much worse state, with both a neck brace and a knee brace. However, her recent updates have been more optimistic, showing her progress and determination to get back on her feet.
Wesley concluded his update by encouraging fans to continue sending their support. “Nina appreciates all the love and positive energy,” he said. “Let’s keep it coming as she continues to heal.”
Dobrev and White have been together since 2020, and their relationship has been a source of strength for her during this challenging time. The couple has shared glimpses of their life together, including their Halloween costumes last year, where they dressed as characters from Stranger Things.
As Dobrev continues her recovery, fans can look forward to more updates from both her and Wesley. The support from her friends, family, and fans has been a crucial part of her healing process, and she remains grateful for all the love she’s received.
