You read it right. The doppelganger hottie, Nina Dobrev is leaving The Vampire Diaries for good.
While TVD has been given a green signal for the seventh season, Nina has announced the current season 6 to be her last. The actress has proven her mettle by performing a number of different characters in the show and how well so!
Be it the sweet Elena, the evil Katherine, the conniving Tatia or the passionate Amara, Nina Dobrev has played all the roles perfectly, switching seamlessly from one to the other. Her excellent performance and her chemistry with the lead heroes, Stefan and Damon, has created a huge fan base, all of whom are devastated at her Instagram farewell announcement.
“I was a human, a vampire, a doppelganger, a crazy immortal, a doppelganger pretending to be human, a human pretending to be a doppelganger. I got kidnapped, killed, resurrected, tortured, cursed, body-snatched, was dead and undead, and there’s still so much more to come before the season finale in May.”
“Elena fell in love not once, but twice, with two epic soulmates, and I myself made some of the best friends I’ll ever know and built an extended family I will love forever.”
Soon after her announcement, the mastermind behind TVD, Julie Plec confirmed the news all the while letting fans know that the show will go on. Many other characters in the six years long series have come and gone, however, Nina is first of the lead cast to leave, who will closely be followed by Michael Trevino.

Some of the fans are so disappointed at losing their favorite actress, they have resorted to the #CancelTVD trend.
Two queens taken for granted. Katherine (@ninadobrev) and Rebekah (@claireholt) are gone. Took the ratings with them too! #CANCELTVD

TVD died a loong time ago. I only stayed in the loop hoping that one day Katherine would return but now that Nina is leaving.. #CANCELTVD
