What happened to David Dobrik’s friend Julia Abner?
Julia started off working the Vine circuit, creating videos on the app. Her content became very well-known and she reportedly amassed 100,000 followers. Since creating short clips and vlogs, Julia went on to become a professional photographer.
Photographing artists such as Taylor Swift, Lauren Bushnell, and Zedd, as well as brands such as Nike, iHeartradio, and Revlon, Julia has been very successful in her field of work. While it’s likely Julia has a very busy schedule, fans have questioned why she is no longer part of David’s vlogs. “[You] used to be in David's vlogs, right? Whatever happened to you guys, are you two still friends?” one Instagram follower commented on Julia’s pic.

Though we may not get to see Julia and David’s friendship on-screen anymore, they are seemingly still friends. On Jan. 14, the photographer posted a snap of the vlogger on her Instagram, which she simply captioned, “David.” Though Julia may be part of the old Vlog Squad (as fans have dubbed), she has certainly made a name for herself in L.A. And, we can always go back and watch David’s early vlogs to appreciate her dry sense of humor.
