Since their break up has been reported Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder have kept quiet about their split but in a recent interview with Entertainment Wise their fellow CW colleague, Colton Haynes confirmed it for them.
The actor was in the UK promoting his new show "Arrow" when the interviewer shared her displeasure concerning the split between Dobrev and Somerhalder. When she said they were broken up Haynes responded by saying, "They are actually."
Haynes, who is friends with Dobrev told the Entertainment Wise correspondent that there is most likely no animosity between the former couple, he said, "But I'm sure they're really great friends."
The actor added that their split will not lead to an "awkward" atmosphere while on the set of their hit show "The Vampire Diaries."
He said: "I think you become really good friends with that person when you see them everyday anyway so I think they obviously knew that getting into a relationship.
"But I don't think it would be awkward for them. They are both well rounded people."
Even though the two actors have parted ways Haynes, who used to play on MTV's "Teen Wolf" believes that they still love each other.
The actor explained, "Every time you're in a relationship and when you get out of one, I always think you still have a little bit of love left, so they'll be fine."
