Nina Dobrev and Nikki Reed may have been pitted against one another for weeks as the "Twilight" actress has been dating Dobrev's ex-boyfriend Ian Somerhalder following the duo's split. However, despite rumors that Dobrev made a point to diss Reed in a recent Instagram post, sources close to the actress reveal that there is no truth in the said rumors.

Gossip Cop reveals that a report claiming the "Vampire Diaries" actress' recent Instagram pic showing a teddy bear and her cat is "throwing major shade" at Somerhalder's new fiancée is making the rounds as a reported "diss" rumor on Reed, despite both girls denying having any issues with one another in the past.

The outlet in question reports that Dobrev's quote, "It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice," throws shade at Reed, in addition to a claim that her latest photo with the caption, "Ms. Cuddles," referencing her teddy bear in the photo, "trying to cuddle up to my Lynx. But my lynx doesn't like fake b****," is also dissing Reed.

Fans were quick to point out that Dobrev's message is more likely a hint about an upcoming episode of "The Vampire Diaries" rather than a subtle diss on Reed or ex-Somerhalder.

A source close to the actress reveals the rumors as "a joke," adding that any rumored beef between Dobrev and Reed are made-up stories.

Do you think Dobrev has any hard feelings over Reed dating her ex?
