Nina Dobrev and Shaun White are engaged

Nina - who began dating Shaun back in 2020 - told Vogue magazine: "I went into shock. I just froze and stared at him."

Shaun, 38, popped the question with a five carat diamond ring. The retired sports star also succeeded in catching his fiancee by surprise.

Nina recalled: "He said all the right things."

Shaun disguised his true intentions by having his publicist send Nina a fake invitation for an intimate dinner with Anna Wintour, the long-time editor of Vogue.

The actress admitted: "He made the invite look so legitimate."

Shaun and Nina have both shared the news on their own social media accounts.

The former snowboarder posted a photo of the proposal and captioned the image: "She said YES. (sic)"

Nina posted the same photo on her own account and captioned the snap: "RIP boyfriend, hello fiance."

Earlier this year, the loved-up couple revealed that they were ticking off a series of bucket-list ambitions together.

Nina and Shaun embarked on the adventure after the former snowboarder announced his retirement from the sport.

He told Us Weekly: "It's been really fun having time together. Normally I'm off competing and she's shooting a project or something ... but now we've got some time together."

Shaun created a bucket list before he announced his retirement, and the celebrity couple subsequently focused on fulfilling their dreams.

Shaun - who won three Olympic gold medals in half-pipe snowboarding - said: "We went to Antarctica, Dubai, visited her mom in France, went to Monaco, went to Indonesia. We've kind of been all over."
