'The Vampire Diaries' Stars Have Been Plotting Their Reunion for 10 Years [Exclusive]

For eight seasons, Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley played one of the hottest couples on television in the 2010s in The Vampire Diaries. The complicated romantic entanglement between the former's Elena Gilbert and the latter's good-hearted, over-a-century-old vampire Stefan Salvatore was the beating heart of The CW's hit teen drama, even though the duo ultimately didn't end up together. Yet, even after Stefan's death and the death of TVD itself, the duo recently found their way back to each other when Dobrev and Wesley were cast in another book adaptation, You Deserve to Know, at Hulu. According to Dobrev, this wasn't just happenstance, either.
