The CW star admitted that he is very happy and lucky that Persia White came with him to New York during a vacation. "I get the weekend off so we get to experience a little of that. But that's all I'm going to put out there - I'm going to keep the rest for myself," the British actor shared.

Joseph Morgan continued to portray Klaus Mikaelson in the CW Network's "The Vampire Diaries" spinoff series called "The Originals."
