Shaun White announced in a social media post on Wednesday that he and his girlfriend, actress Nina Dobrev, are engaged.

According to Vogue's Elise Taylor, White originally had a few other ideas planned for their engagement. The first was for a vacation over the summer, but that plan got scrapped after Dobrev suffered a knee injury in a dirt biking accident. The second idea was for early November when the two planned to be in Cape Town, but White altered that plan after he felt like Dobrev knew it was coming.

"She's an extremely organized person who is rarely surprised, but she loves being surprised," White said, per Taylor.

White ultimately settled on proposing in New York City at the Golden Swan Restaurant, according to Taylor.

White, who has three Olympic gold medals in snowboarding and 15 gold medals at the X Games in both snowboarding and skateboarding, announced that the 2022 Winter Olympics would be his last. He later announced he would no longer compete in snowboarding in any capacity.

With his fruitful snowboarding career now behind him, White has time for other endeavors, one of which will be planning a wedding.
