Nina Dobrev Wishes Ian Somerhalder A Happy Birthday On Twitter

Ian's 'Vampire Diaries' co-star sent him a hilarious tweet for his 35th birthday. Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev may spend their days battling the forces of evil on The Vampire Diaries, but in real life, they're much more low-key. For Ian's birthday Dec. 8, Nina's gift came in the form of a funny tweet that even included a joke about their employer, The CW!

“Happy Bday Smouldy!” Nina tweeted. “Hope you had a beautiful day filled w/ smiles+gluten free cake!But not too much cake,we’re on the CW :P”

(Seriously, though, we’d kind of love to see a fat Damon in season six.)

Judging by the time of her tweet, it looks like Nina sent it from an In-N-Out Burger, where Nina was indulging with Kevin Williamson and Vampire Diaries executive producer Julie Plec.

And even though it was his birthday, Ian was the one giving out gifts — to his 4.4 million Twitter followers, of course.

“I cant thank you enough today formy birthday love,” he tweeted, typos included, along with an adorable picture of himself with one of his dogs. “Pls RETWEET!Donate!Help us change the world.”

He also tweeted a link to the Ian Somerhalder Foundation’s website, asking for donations as a birthday gift.
