As Caroline Forbes, Candice Accola King became a household name during the successful airing of the eight seasons of Vampire Diaries. She then went on to appear in more vampire shows, including The Originals and Legacies.
But she has been out of the public eye for quite some time, so fans are wondering what she is doing now and if she's stayed in touch with her fellow Vampire Diaries stars, especially after the drama behind the scenes and the alleged pay gaps between the stars.
Candice is most famous for playing Caroline Forbes on the show. Her character was the daughter of Mystic Falls's sheriff, who started off quite shallow and insecure, but then grew in her confidence, as well as on the audience, after she became a vampire.
Candice has played the role for eight seasons and has appeared in more episodes of Vampire Diaries than any other of the co-stars, including former lead Nina Dobrev, who after nearly missing getting cast, opted to leave the series early.
After becoming one of the two female leads in season 7, Candice went on to appear in all episodes of season 8.
Candice did not audition for the role of Caroline. Instead, she tried to get the part of Elena Gilbert, but the producers had different thoughts, and she won the role of Caroline Forbes instead.
She remained close to her co-stars years after the show ended, including Nina Dobrev, Ian Somerhalder, and Kat Graham.
Also, the show must have given her "a taste" for the vampire genre as she went on to star in more vampire shows.
