In Pictures: Paul Skenes' girlfriend Olivia Dunne steals the spotlight in Holiday-inspired red activewear and stylish beige beanie
Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes and his girlfriend, LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne, are both busy preparing for the upcoming seasons in their respective fields. It will be Dunne’s fifth and final season in college gymnastics, where she will compete in the 2025 NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championship.
However, Dunne is not just a gymnast, she is also a major social media personality. On Instagram, she has more followers than her boyfriend, with 5.3 million, and she also boasts 8.1 million followers on TikTok.
The 22-year-old often collaborates with brands and promotes products on her social media accounts. On Monday, she shared pictures from her latest photoshoot.
In the images, Olivia Dunne can be seen seated on a light-colored couch with a neutral, soft background. She is wearing a red athletic crop top paired with matching red leggings, a white knit beanie, and white socks, with the overall outfit giving off a holiday-inspired vibe.
Her long blonde hair is styled loosely, and she strikes a relaxed pose, with one knee raised and her hand resting on her leg. In other shots, she can be seen giving different poses, both sitting and standing, showcasing her outfit.
Paul Skenes opens up about spending time with girlfriend Olivia Dunne this offseason while preparing for the 2025 season
Paul Skenes is coming off a stellar rookie season with the Pittsburgh Pirates and wants to perform even better in 2025. He follows a strict training regimen and sticks to it, even limiting the time he can spend with his girlfriend, Olivia Dunne.
Discussing this with MLB, Skenes said:
“I took three weeks off at the beginning of the offseason. Took a mini vacation to Florida for a few days. It’s just tough because my girlfriend is in school and I’m trying to spend as much time with her as possible. A two-week trip to Italy or something like that? That’s not happening this offseason.”
“People say, ‘Hey, do you want to do something?’ And I’m like, ‘We can do something, but we’ve got about 12 hours because I need to get back and lift in the morning.’ The biggest thing is getting my training in.”
Paul Skenes ended his 2024 season with an 11-3 record, a 1.96 ERA, 170 strikeouts, and a 0.95 WHIP in 23 games, all of which he started with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
