Nina Dobrev Hints at Split in Viral 'Break Free' TikTok, Then Appears Ring-Free at TIFF

Her new clip followed by a Toronto red-carpet turn refocuses attention on a September breakup reported by People.

Overview

  • On November 13, Dobrev posted a TikTok lip-syncing to Ariana Grande’s Break Free, flashing an empty ring finger and ending with a middle-finger gesture.
  • Entertainment outlets including E! News highlighted the clip as a likely reference to her separation from Shaun White.
  • Two days later, she attended the Toronto International Film Festival premiere of Eternity without the reported 5-carat engagement ring.
  • People previously reported in September that Dobrev and the three-time Olympic gold medalist ended their engagement.
  • Earlier posts from Dobrev, including a lip-sync about trying to “fix” a partner, had also been interpreted as commentary on the breakup.
