Ian Somerhalder Net Worth: After Nikki Reed Wedding, ‘Vampire Diaries’ Season 7 Without Nina Dobrev – How Much Is Damon Salvatore Worth? [VIDEO]

After becoming famous in his starting role playing Damon Salvatore in "The Vampire Diaries" since 2009, Ian Somerhalder's net worth isn't as high as one would think, though for sure he won't be starving to death in the next few years!

Earlier this year, the 36 year-old actor married "Twilight" star Nikki Reed after dating for about a year, and not long after the announcement, Nina Dobrev, Somerhalder's co-star in the CW series, announced she wouldn't be coming back for "The Vampire Diaries" season 7, prompting speculation about Ian Somerhalder's net worth.

In fact, beyond Ian Somerhalder's net worth, many people were concerned that the reason Dobrev had decided to step down from the show that made her famous was her past relationship with Somerhalder, as the two dated for a couple of years before Somerhalder met Reed, and it was thought things had grown increasingly awkward between them after the wedding.

Time and again, Dobrev has denied there's any truth to those claims, saying the reason she chose to leave the show was because she'd grown tired of the role and wanted to dip her toe further into a film career, which she wasn't able to do that much due to her commitment to the series - but where does that leave Ian Somerhalder's net worth?

Of course, most of Ian Somerhalder's net worth stems from the teen vampire drama, although in the past he also starred in the cult show "Lost" besides the Superman origin series "Smallville" and most recently in a few critically panned films such as "The Anomaly" and "Caught on Tape."

Before Jamie Dornan was officially cast in the role of Christian Grey in "Fifty Shades of Grey," Somerhalder was one of the heavy contenders for the role.

These days, Celebrity Net Worth lists Ian Somerhalder's net worth at $4 million just ahead of the premiere of the next season of the vampire-themed series - watch the latest and steamy trailer below!
