After Season 8 Kat Graham Exiting Vampire Dairies

Fans of the CW series “vampire diaries” have been hit with another bad news as Kat Graham who plays Bonnie is exiting the show in 2017 after season 8 (season 7 is currently airing).

Kat who has been on the show since the pilot episode in 2009 is following the footsteps of co-star and former leading lady Nina Dobrev, who exited the show after six seasons and played a myriad of characters from the human turned vampire Elena Gilbert to Vampire turned human Catherine.

Graham confirmed her exit in an interview with us weekly saying, “I just hope whatever I do after, the crew can come with me. If the crew can come with me, then we’ll be good. The crew is going to be the hardest thing to let go, because we are a family.”

Does anyone think her exit will affect ratings? Ian Somerhalder is still on the show right? Then I don’t think so.
