A year after wishing for a tall partner, Olivia Dunne’s life was graced by Paul Skenes’ presence. The LSU gymnast revisited a viral TikTok from a year earlier, reflecting her typical social media success.
In the video, Dunne sported a red dress with a slim fit, lingerie-like top, and lace detailing. The New Jersey-born athlete enhanced her outfit with white, knee-length sheer socks, bulky white sneakers, dual gold necklaces, and a beaded headband. At 21, her platinum blonde hair was impeccably styled in curls, and her makeup featured dark lashes, rosy cheeks, defined brows, radiant highlighter, and glossy pink lips.
Mimicking a skit from SZA’s appearance on “Saturday Night Live” last December, Dunne lip-synced to a song about seeking a “big boy” for the cuffing season.
Celebrating the post’s relevance, Dunne, renowned as the nation’s top-earning female college athlete, shared the video with her 7.8 million followers, playfully alluding to her boyfriend’s 6-foot-6 stature.
Fans praised her look, with one highlighting her red attire and another complimenting her stunning appearance.
Dunne’s relationship with Skenes, the No. 1 MLB draft pick who joined the Pittsburgh Pirates, began at LSU. The California-born SI Swimsuit model, who posed for the 2023 issue in Puerto Rico and the upcoming May issue in Portugal, sparked dating speculations after being seen in Skenes’ jersey during the College World Series in June.
