TVD spoilers also revealed that with Alaric's tragedies who lost his soon-to-be wife and unborn twin babies on his wedding day makes Damon able to forget his own worries and sadness.
"He's really taking a lot of that energy and he's putting it into Alaric," Somerhalder said in the article of People. "Alaric's sort of helped him forget his own sadness, and ultimately he's just really being there for his best friend. He also has Bonnie there sort of as a caring watchdog."
Aside from this, the 36-year-old also said that there wouldn't be any new love interest for Damon this early in the story.
"I don't think so. It's too early. It's this epic love, and I just think that to throw someone in like that would just really diluting and it would negate how intense and beautiful that was." Somerhalder said.
Somerhalder also talked about how the hit vampire series "The Vampire Diaries" is without Nina Dobrev playing in it.
"There's still a lot of elements of [the show that was]," Somerhalder said to The Hollywood Reporter. "We know that she's there, and there's still very much the presence of Elena. This is Mystic Falls without her. I think people are going to like it. This is the evolution of this story. And it's a lot of fun. There's a lot of great interaction with the brothers; there's a lot happening."
