Paul Wesley Says He & Nina Dobrev 'Definitely Clashed' on 'Vampire Diaries' Set But They're Really Close Now

Earlier this summer, Nina Dobrev revealed that when The Vampire Diaries first started, she and Paul Wesley didn’t get along at all – and he just confirmed it this week.

Chatting with ET following the Tell Me A Story panel at the 2019 Summer TCA Tour, Paul says that he and Nina definitely clashed.

“What [Nina] said is absolutely true. Nina is my really good friend now, we talk all the time and it’s true. When we first started shooting The Vampire Diaries, we totally clashed. We didn’t [get along]. Creatively, it just wasn’t in sync,” Paul shared.

He continues that “the fans would never have known that. We’re basically driving each other insane and then after a few seasons, we developed this absolute mutual love.”

Paul added, “I actually think my best friendships always come from this evolution. And so now, I just adore her, she adores me and I talk to her more than most of the other cast members.”
