Vampire fiction has known a huge success in the past few years – could it be the Twilight influence? Either way, hot actors with fangs and romance specked with blood seem to be a recipe for success. The Vampire Diaries co-stars Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder had some failed attempts of hiding their relationship, but they’re now finally out in the open. Do we sense a little Anna Paquin – Stephen Moyer moment here?

If we were to read the hints on Nina Dobrev’s Twitter, we’d say she’s very much in a romantic mood: Word of the day … “sensorial”. To “share a sensorial experience”, comes her tweet just hours after she’s been declaring her love for scented candles. Romantic evening, anyone? In the meantime, Dobrev and Somerhalder have been showing quite a lot of PDA at Coachella, and the actress looked super hot in a red maxi dress with bohemian accessories, a cute Mulberry purse and classic Ray Ban sunglasses.
