On a trip to Italy with new wife Nikki Reed, Ian Somerhalder allegedly grew irritated at fans who wanted to take photos with him, and even raised his voice when trying to talk to them.

The 36-year old 'The Vampire Diaries' star was stopped by a group who wanted to meet him and apparently, he replied by saying that 'he doesn't have time to pose with all of them.' 

A video surfaced on the internet, showing the unfotunate encounter. 

"One second, stop, STOP. Stop," he said. "You guys are amazing, I love you to death. You have your life, I have my life. I work with you and for you. I cannot stop with everyone and take pictures. I've gotta go in, I've gotta go home. I love you guys. This is the experience. Be happy, man. Be happy, I'm with you. I love you dude."

Though Somerhalder agreed to shake hands with the fans before leaving and even blew a kiss for all them, it did not seem to be enough. Some of them turned to Twitter to call out the actor for his rude behavior and being mean to his fans twice in a row. 

The actor appeared in another similar video a few weeks before the Napoli incident. According to reports, Somerhalder was caught shaking his hands, asking for an apology for not being able to take a single photo with them during that day.

"Hey guys, listen. No, no, stop. Everybody, listen," he said "I love you guys. I'm not taking a single photo today. It's my day. Don't follow us, please. I love you guys. You're so good to us. You're so awesome."

Apart from all of the issues that the TVD actor is facing, Somerhalder has been very upfront about his married life, describing it as "Amazing. It's great." He said, "It's the best time I've ever had."

Aside from being popularly known as Damon Salvatore in The Vampire Diaries, Ian Somerhalder also played Boone Catyl in the TV drama series 'Lost'.
