'Vampire Diaries' Season 8 Finale News & Updates: Nina Dobrev Will Not Participate; Ian Somerholder Rejects Delena Reunion

With "The Vampire Diaries" finally coming to an end, Delena fans are hopeful of a reunion between Damon Salvatore (Ian Somerhalder) and Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev). However, it looks like both stars are no longer interested on a comeback for their on-screen partnership.

As it can be recalled, during the San Diego Comic Con, Julie Plec confirmed the "The Vampire Diaries" upcoming season eight would already be the last season of the series. It has come with great honor for them to be able to end the show the way they wanted it to end.

Plec also confirmed that actress Nina Dobrev promised to come back to the show for its finale, since she exited the show almost two years ago. Fans have been hoping for Dobrev's character Elena to reunite with her partner on the show, Damon. However, actor Ian Somerhalder, who plays Damon, is not as excited about the possibility.

According to the International Business Times, Ian is not so thrilled about the idea of his character reuniting with Elena. He believes that their partnership on the show has already been given the proper ending upon Dobrev's exit. Instead, he initially wanted the end to be about his character, Damon, and his brother, Stefan Salvatore.

Inquisitr reported that Dobrev's exit was led by the fact that she was uncomfortable filming with ex-boyfriend Ian Somerhalder while his wife, Nikki Reed, was on set. Their breakup a few years back was supposedly fine at first, with the couple being friends and all. However, they have grown awkward and uncomfortable over time. This was allegedly the actress's real reason for leaving the show.

Fans have been clinging to the statement made by showrunner Julie Plec about Nina Dobrev coming back for the series finale. There isn't any confirmation whether her comeback will give closure to Delena fans, but it will surely make a great impact on its ending.
