"The Vampire Diaries" season 8 episode 10 spoilers say that the long-awaited comeback of Nina Dobrev aka Elena Gilbert. It can be recalled that Ian Somerhalder's ex-girlfriend has dropped the show because of personal reasons. She felt awkward working with Somerhalder after their split.

According to Hollywood Life, after her exit, the show's rating plummeted and she was blamed for it. So the show runners convinced her to come back. However, "The Final Girls" actress has not confirmed her comeback even only for the last episode. She needs to comeback to give closure to the Elena Gilbert story.

When pressured to confirm her return, she said, "I haven't ever told secrets in the past and I'm definitely not going to start now," she said. "Sorry guys, I'm not allowed to talk about that." She added that when she left the TV series, her other endeavors in the industry paid off.

Ian Somerhalder teased the possibility of Dobrev's return whether physically or not as reported by Stars Post. Somerhalder said, "Elena never really left. She's always ever-present, and she plays a great deal into Damon's morality, his understanding of who he is - especially in these last episodes." He added, "How much she's going to physically play into things, I'm not really sure. I think they're just finishing writing the finale now."

Will Nina Dobrev return for the series finale? Knowing that she has been with the show for the last seven seasons, she will not deprive her character of the best ending. Elena Gilbert and Damon Salvatore might end up together after all.

While nothing has been official yet, fans are still hopeful Nina Dobrev might return to "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 episode 10 or on the finale itself. Episode 10 titled "Nostalgia's a Bitch" airs January 27.
