Shaun White extended his support to Nina Dobrev on her recovery
Shaun White supported Nina Dobrev after her bike accident in June. The former Alpine skier who was busy with his professional endeavors spoke to People's magazine about Dobrev's recovery post-accident.
“She's such a trooper. I mean, she really took her recovery so seriously. She's icing, she's taking peptides, she's doing this everyday therapy. She's honestly more diligent than I was even while I was competing. So she's bounced back really quickly,” he said.
White is one of the torch bearers in the pre-launch event of the Paris Olympics. He opened up on his plans to attend the prestigious quadrennial games with his friends and Nina.
" But yeah, we're planning on going to the Summer Olympics and cheer on some friends out there in skateboarding and fencing,” he added.
