Ian Somerhalder & Nikki Reed: Be Honest With Your Exes About Romance

Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed, it’s great that you’re finding happiness with each other. But because you used to ‘couple date’ with each of your exes, Nina Dobrev and Paul McDonald, you really need to keep them informed. They shouldn’t find out about your blossoming romance from the media!
Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed — there are great perks to being a celebrity, but one of the downsides is that it’s hard to keep a new romance a secret. Especially when you go out in public, which you did this past weekend when you jogged together on July 19, and then visited a farmer’s market in Studio City on July 20.

Nina Dobrev, 25, and Ian Somerhalder, 35, may have officially broken up over a year ago, but considering the fact that they still have to work together and the fact that they were rumored to have been hooking up again in late 2013, it makes sense that Nina may be a bit hurt by her ex’s new relationship with Nikki Reed, 26.
