Nina Dobrev has finally opened up about why she left The Vampire Diaries before the show ended. The actress told Rogue Magazine, “I’ve always wanted to take big risks. I started Vampire Diaries when I was 20, and I was playing a young teenage girl. I also played Katherine, this ancient vixen who was manipulative and crazy. Then I grew into myself as a woman — I found that part of myself while playing that role — I grew with the show and I wanted to continue to grow outside of it. Mentally, it was a crazy time. I was 27 when I left the show, I was ready to do something different. I wanted to prove everyone wrong who said I would play this one role my whole life or be stuck playing younger roles.”
Nina also spoke about losing her cat. According to JustJared.com, she said, “My cat passed away a couple months ago. I’ve had her since I was nine, and it wasn’t until she passed that I ever lived truly alone — I realised how important her companionship was to me. The day that she died, I cried myself to sleep.”
