The Vampire Diaries costars Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder have reportedly ended their relationship after three years together.

A source told Us Weekly that despite the split, the two are still "consummate professionals" and "will continue to work together and remain best friends, which is where the relationship started."
Dobrev, 24, and Somerhalder, 34, who play Elena Gilbert and Damon Salvatore on the CW series, originally denied any sort of relationship together when they first became a couple, according to People.
However, their romance became public in 2011, Us Weekly reported.
"I didn't want to be dating one of my costars," Dobrev eventually said to Seventeen magazine last year. "My goal on the show was to be professional. But sometimes you can't help who you have a connection with, and you can only fight it for so long – which I did for a really, really long time."
People did not receive any comment on the break-up from the actors' reps.
