Latest Nina Dobrev update news claim that the actress is purportedly trying to make her ex-boyfriend, Ian Somerhalder, jealous by enjoying lots of PDA with Austin Stowell.

Nina Dobrev is purportedly depressed over news updates that Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed are allegedly trying to conceive a baby.

Nina's way of getting back at Ian Somerhalder reportedly involves using Austin Stowell to appear happy in the eyes of the public, and subtly telling Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder that she's doing great even without him.

According to Celeb Dirty Laundry's fresh Nina Dobrev update, the actress has been spotted a lot being touchy-feely with each other.

"Nina and Austin were photographed kissing and touching each other constantly," the website reported.

"The couple put on a passionate display, not seeming to care that photographers were taking pictures. Nina and Austin jumped on some jet skis, and Nina gave the looming paps a thumbs up as she grabbed her new boyfriend, smiling.

"At one point, Dobrev straddled Stowell, wrapping her arms around him and kissing him. Austin didn't seem to mind and lifted her close to his chest and smiled as she locked her legs around his waist.

"This is the sort of LOOK AT US, WE ARE SO IN LOOOOOVE behavior Nina's ex-boyfriend, Ian Somerhalder, and her ex-friend, Nikki Reed, typically flaunt for cameras. Since Nikki and Ian hooked up, they haven't been shy in rubbing their relationship in Nina's face."

It may not be clear whether Nina Dobrev is just using Austin Stowell to make Nikki Reed's husband jealous and regretful, or if Nina is actually in love with him.

Meanwhile, Hollywood Life's latest Nina Dobrev news update said the actress recently reunited with her "The Vampire Diaries" former co-stars Candice Accola and Kayla Ewell for Kayla's bachelorette party on Aug 1.
