'The Vampire Diaries' Season 8 Spoilers: Nina Dobrev NOT Returning; Ian Somerhalder Begs To Reunite With Ex To Revive His Career?

As we near the premiere date of "The Vampire" Diaries Season 8, the hype about the series continues to grow. According to reports, Nina Dobrev already confirmed that she is not returning for the series' final season. However, her ex-flame and "TVD" on-screen partner Ian Somerhalder reportedly begs her to join "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 to revive his career.

Nina Dobrev's return in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 is filled with controversies. Earlier reports suggest that Ian Somerhalder no longer wants to work with his ex-girlfriend. In fact, he prefers to give the series a brotherly ending and send Elena on her own without any memories about the Salvatore brothers.

Some other sources claim that Nina Dobrev's return in "The Vampire Diaries" threatens Nikki Reed. There are rumors that the "Twilight" star is insecure with her husband's ex that she doesn't want the pair to do romantic scenes.

This crushed the "TVD" fans hope to see a closure of the Delena romance because Ian Somerhalder seems to be supporting his wife's requests. In fact, there are reports, that Somerhalder and Reed have sabotaged Nina Dobrev's return in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8.

However, things seem to have changed after Nina Dobrev announced that she is not joining "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8. According to GameNGuide, Ian Somerhalder has changed his mind.

The actor is now willing to reunite with Nina Dobrev just to revive his career. In fact, he no longer cares about the divorce reports and is willing to dump Nikki Reed just to regain the fame and popularity that he experienced in "The Vampire Diaries" with Dobrev.

Ian Somerhalder is reportedly bugging Julie Plec to have Nina Dobrev return in the last season of "The Vampire Diaries." This is different from Somerhalder's earlier actions.

Per Morning News USA, when Plec announced during the Comic Con that they are working on having Nina Dobrev back, Somerhalder showed his disapproval. "I thought we had a conversation about that, apparently not," the actor told Plec showing his disinterest in working with Dobrev again.
