Enjoying some time away from the set of "The Vampire Diaries," Kat Graham stepped out for a day at the beach in Santa Monica on Monday (October 14).

The 24-year-old actress wore a neon bikini as she took a stroll with her fiancé Cottrell Guidry and her dog Izzy.

Recently, Miss Graham spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the upcoming season of her hit CW series.

"There is definitely going to be some fighting," Kat explained about having to deal with telling her friends that she's dead. "If she does tell anyone about it, it makes it real, which I think she was always trying to avoid."

Also dropping a few hints about what's to come for her character, Miss Graham stated, "You can become weak by something or you can become empowered by something and she says, 'Whatever Silas wants, we can't let him have it.'"

"She's turning this around on Silas. Bonnie is a character who isn't easily weakened by circumstances and she's somebody who probably will want to avenge her father," she added.
