If you grew up on The Vampire Diaries and still vaguely expect these people to show up in your town square with a surprise curse, here is what they are actually doing off camera: raising kids, navigating real-life stuff, and yes, hitting some major life milestones.
Candice Accola
Candice and musician Joe King welcomed their first daughter, Florence, in January 2016. They later added a second daughter, Josephine. Joe also has two older daughters, Elise and Ava, from his previous marriage to Julie.
By May 2022, things had taken a turn. Us Weekly confirmed Candice filed to end the marriage, citing the standard Hollywood catch-all:
'irreconcilable differences'
Court documents noted the pair had already separated earlier that year, shortly after marking seven years of marriage. Translation: they hit the anniversary, tried to keep it moving, and then called it.
Michael Trevino
In April 2026, Michael welcomed his first child with his wife, model Bregje Heinen. No extra details shared yet, just the headline: first-time dad.
