They've been pitted against one another multiple times in the tabloids because they both have a romantic history with Ian Somerhalder, but now, Nina Dobrev and Nikki Reed have finally put the rumors to rest about how they feel regarding one another.

After years of treating the endless stories with silence, the two women and Somerhalder all took to social media with posts about the relationship between them, finally revealing that there genuienly isn't any bad blood between the two women, despite what's been reported in the past.

Reed shared a long caption with her Instagram post about the subject, expressing that the fact that Dobrev dated Somerhalder from 2010-2013 doesn't mean she isn't friendly with her now husband's ex, whom they had a dinner with as she said an official goodbye to The Vampire Diaries, the show which she and Somerhalder both starred on.

 For the last few years we thought addressing any baseless rumors with silence was the best way. Besides, who wants to respond to made up stories about "friends backstabbing friends", "cheating exes", or "cast members exiting shows" on low-brow websites like hollywoodlife that are just perpetuating trends that preceded us. Yuck. I now see that silence was taken as an opportunity to fill in the blanks with even more falsities, and juicer stories, and we, yes WE, believe we have a moral responsibility to young girls to end that narrative, because at the end of all of this, those young girls are the ones who lose. Their passion and endless devotion for a tv show is being taken advantage of, replaced with feelings of anger through divisive techniques, & even worse, their minds are being shaped & molded as their view of themselves, other girls, & what those dynamics should look like are being formed. So here's to putting an end to all those fake stories of on set jealousy, betrayal, made-up-friendships lost & women hating women. Because at the end of the day, that's what this is about: teaching girls that you have to hate other girls only breeds a generation of women who believe you have to hate other women. And that's what these magazines, websites and blogs don't understand. That is the harmful unintended consequence of their bullshit stories and we have a moral responsibility to fix that. Let's turn this page together, as we all walk into the next chapter peacefully. And finally, let's use this as an example of how important it is to stop this trend of writing horrible headlines about women, painting us as bitter, angry, insecure, heartbroken, childless, feuding, backstabbing monsters because whether we want to admit it or not, it changes the way all women view themselves. And shame on these websites for now targeting an even younger demographic, instilling this at an earlier age when girls are even more susceptible, more vulnerable and more malleable. When we write these headlines we teach hate. I've seen it firsthand. Let's shift what we put into the universe starting now, & hopefully we will start to see a shift in the way we treat each other & view ourselves

Dobrev shared a similar message, in a simpler way, simply stating her love for both Somerhalder and Reed.

"Can't believe how time flies. Farewell dinner with team Somereed! So good catching up with these goofballs. All (heart emoji)." She wrote. Somerhalder even added his own opinion to the conversation in a post as well, blasting the media for pitting both women against one another for so long.

Chilling with these two... After years of websites pretending these two badass ladies knew each other well and baseless, false information of back stabbing and hatred from low-brow websites filled the minds and hearts of fans... They finally were able to get together for their first real dinner. Let's stop spreading hate everyone, there's already too much of that right now in our world. Join in on the love. Only love here- always has been always will be. Media companies preying on the passion from vulnerable and or impressionable minds of fans to sell advertising through click-though traffic is a disease in our society. It's poisonous. Let's finish this series with respect and kindness and continue that in our lives. I think it's time. What do think? A photo posted by iansomerhalder (@iansomerhalder) on Feb 7, 2017 at 1:26pm PST
