Olivia Dunne, or Livvy, as she’s often called, is an American artistic gymnast and internet sensation. She is the most followed collegiate athlete in the world across all social media platforms. With over 5.3 million on Instagram and over 8 million followers on TikTok. 

She was a member of the USA National Gymnastics team back in 2017. And fast forward to 2025, she is already a National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Team Champion with Louisiana State University, after helping LSU win the 2024 NCAA Championship, the school’s first ever. Now, Dunne looks forward to her final championship run on April 18, 2025. 

But besides Dunne’s career life, let’s take a deep dive into the matters of the heart and see why she’s been trending lately. Who is she dating?

Who Is Olivia Dunne Dating?

Olivia Dunne’s boyfriend is a 22-year-old MLB star, Paul Skenes. Yes, she’s dating an athlete. Skenes is a 6’6” tall build of handsomeness, born on May 29, 2002, in Orange County, California, where he also grew up. He went to El Toro High School and played varsity baseball for three seasons. 

It wouldn’t be hard to make the case that Livvy Dunne and Paul Skenes are the archetypal Gen Z power couple

His parents are Craig and Karen Skenes, and he has two siblings, Lauren and Kristen. Skenes acknowledges that the love and support from his parents encouraged him to play baseball and to win his 2023 Dick Howser Trophy.

In an interview from October 2024, Dunne told PEOPLE Magazine that she and her boyfriend, Paul Skenes, are “complete opposites” in many ways, but their differences are what make their relationship work.

“We’re just very opposite, and I feel like it really works,” She said, “I feel like we’re like yin and yang.” “I think that we play off of one another and make each other better.” With the outpouring of love, one could say that Dunne is definitely having the best time in her love life. 

What Does Olivia Dunne’s Boyfriend Do for a Living?

Olivia Dunne’s boyfriend, Paul Skenes, is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates of Major League Baseball (MLB). He previously played for the Air Force Falcons as a two-way player (as catcher and reliever) before transferring to LSU in 2022.

It was there that he became a legend. He played for the LSU Tigers before he was drafted first overall in 2023. Then he went on to hit the MLB in May 2024. After Skenes made his MLB debut, he started pitching professionally in the major league with his electric arm for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The right-hander successfully turned out to be one of the few rookies in history to make the starting lineup at the MLB All-Star game that year and earn an All-Star nod as a rookie. His net worth as of 2024 is reported to be around $3 million. 

How Did Olivia Dunne and Paul Skenes Meet?

In a joint interview with GQ Magazine published on Wednesday, April 2, Olivia Dunne’s boyfriend and the superstar gymnast reflected on where it all began. Which is back in LSU, where they were both students. Apparently, Dunne followed Skenes on Instagram but became hesitant to move forward when he did not follow her back. 

In the interview, Skenes explained that he wasn’t intentionally ignoring her follow button and that social media wasn’t a priority for him. He further clarified that he was well aware of Dunne, as she was quite popular at their school. 

While Dunne was curious about the “tall, mysterious man,” they finally got introduced by both of their roommates, who were dating each other. And once it started, there was no looking back for them. It started with a little ice cream date, and then slowly it grew into what they have today.

How Long Have Olivia Dunne and Paul Skenes Been Together?

Dunne and Skenes have been in a relationship for around 2 years. It was Dunne who first made things apparent in June 2023 when she shared a TikTok video of herself wearing a jersey with Paul’s number on it. As the rumors started to spread, the MLB pitcher eventually confirmed they were together. 

Their compatibility has been their biggest asset as they gradually grew into each other, and soon they were spending the holidays together, building a beautiful life.
