Nina Dobrev Says She 'Has a Long Road of Recovery Ahead' After Bike Injury

Nina Dobrev is recovering from a bike accident. 

The actress, 35, shared photos of her injuries on Instagram on Monday, May 20.

Dobrev posted two photos on her feed with one of herself on a bike, clad in a black cardigan and white sneakers, prior to the accident. The other one showed her laying in a hospital bed with a brace on her neck and knee, and an IV in her arm.

She wrote in the caption: “how it started vs how it’s going.” 

In her Instagram Stories, the Vampire Diaries alum posted a selfie of herself in the hospital bed and a message that read, "I’m ok but it’s going to be a long road of recovery ahead."

She did not disclose any additional details about the accident.

Some of Dobrev’s TVD costars sent their well-wishes in the comments with Kayla Ewell writing, “Making the hospital gown the new spring trend ❤️❤️ love you! Handling it like a champ!” and Claire Holt sharing, “Noooo so sorry! Feel better ❤️❤️❤️.”

Twilight star Ashley Greene commented, “Always going big... 😉 heal fast” and Julianne Hough wrote, “That’s my girl! 🫠 Obviously wouldn’t make jokes if you were not ok…”

Dobrev's longtime boyfriend Shaun White, 35, posted a photo on his Instagram Stories of Dobrev on a private plane after she was released, her leg elevated and her knee in a brace.

The Olympian tagged his girlfriend and added three red hearts to the photo.
