Nina Dobrev posted a scathing new video to TIkTok – amid a burst of claims that her ex Shaun White was seen flirting with reality star Brooks Nader.
It emerged in early September that Dobrev, 36, had broken her engagement with the Olympic snowboarder after a five-year-romance, with sources describing her as ‘devastated’ over the end of her relationship.
Then this Wednesday – two months later – sources alleged they caught sight of White and Nader having a conversation outside an Alice + Olivia event in New York.
White is said to have stood outside Nader’s car and spoken with her for five minutes through her window, even handing her his phone so they could swap contact information, according to eyewitnesses who spoke to JustJared.
Although Dobrev did not address the subject directly, she posted a cheeky clip that fans instantly assumed was a response to the new development.
She uploaded a fiery TIkTok of herself flipping off the camera to the sound of Ariana Grande singing: ‘if you want it, take it,’ from her 2014 song Break Free with Zedd.
The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for Dobrev, White and Nader for comment.

In her TIkTok video, on Grande’s lines: ‘Try to hide it, fake it,’ Dobrev mischievously put her middle finger down and stuck her ring finger up in its place, grinning.
When Grande sang: ‘I can’t pretend anymore,’ the smile instantly vanished from Dobrev’s face and she put her middle finger back up with a glare.
Fans flocked to the comments section to share their supposition that Dobrev’s latest post was directed at White, such as one who gushed: ‘GIRL YOURE GLOWING NO MAN DESERVES ALLADATTTT.’
‘She’s been glowing since that relationship ended,’ observed another as a third wrote: ‘You were always too hot for him let’s bffr.’
‘The way she looks like she reverse aged 15 years since leaving that relationship … it’s INSANE how toxic relationships manifest physically. I’m sooooo happy for her,’ another fan rhapsodized in the comments section.
Still another giggled imagining ‘shaun watching her switch to the ring finger on “fake it” from his burner,’ a detail that also caught the attention of a commenter who wrote: ‘“Tried to fake it” with the ring finger is insane work.’
‘I get the impression she’s had a glowup since she’s no longer with her guy??’ one TikTok user wrote in French, as another vamped in English: ‘Is this for him Nina ?’
White and Dobrev began dating during the COVID-19 pandemic and he proposed last October, surprising her with a five-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond ring.

When news broke of their split this September, a source claimed that the sticking point between them was their differing views on having children.
‘She is devastated. There was one reason: She wanted a family and wanted to get married – and he didn’t,’ an insider alleged to People.
However a second source maintained that ‘it wasn’t just one-sided,’ insisting that both halves of the couple ‘wanted marriage and kids.’
That version of events was echoed by a third insider who said: ‘They both wanted marriage and children and were making plans to have a life together.’
Still another source described Dobrev as ‘devastated’ over the split, adding: ‘There was no cheating at all during the course of their five-and-a-half-year relationship.’
That insider continued: ‘They were very loyal to each other. Any online speculation that suggests otherwise is ridiculous,’ according to Us Weekly.
