The Vampire Diaries’ Paul Wesley Reveals Why Stefan/Elena Fans Shouldn’t Lose Hope

It’s been a bumpy road this season on The CW’s The Vampire Diaries (Thursdays, 8/7c) for lovebirds Stefan and Elena. But despite a tough break-up, his descent into darkness and her growing relationship with Damon, Paul Wesley tell us all hope is not lost. In fact, Elena’s latest dilemma will bring the couple together in a united “mission.” Wesley also dishes on Stefan’s feelings about his bro getting closer to his girl and Sage’s arrival in the present.

TVLINE | How successful is Stefan going to be on this new path of moderation?

That’s what makes him compelling and interesting and dynamic.
