COLLEGE star Olivia Dunne wowed with her latest social media post, which gave fans an inside look into her relationship with top MLB prospect Paul Skenes.
The 21-year-old star LSU gymnast shared a video on TikTok of her nervously supporting Skenes while he pitched during his Spring Training game.

Dunne appeared in the video watching the game from her laptop and couch, as she couldn’t attend the contest in person.
The LSU star is scheduled to compete in a home meet in Louisiana on Friday against North Carolina and was forced to tune in virtually from home.
Despite not being there in person, it didn’t calm Dunne’s nerves as she was noticeably anxious during Skene’s appearance.
“Watching my boyfriend pitch like,” Dunne captioned the video.
Dunne can also be heard cheering for Skenes in the video after he strikes out a Baltimore Orioles batter.
Fans flooded her comments with praise, and many cracked jokes that she was not watching it on TV.
“This is going to be the next Kelce and Swift,” this fan declared.
“So wholesome he’s living a dream and pulled a top 2 girl ever,” a second said.

“All that NIL money and u watching the game on a $200 mini laptop,” a third called her out, to which Dunne responded, “Leave me be.”
Another fan asked, “Can’t you put the game on the TV?” forcing Dunne to reveal she doesn’t have one.
The clip comes from Skenes’s time in Florida for spring training. He faced Baltimore during his start and performed excellently.
He struck out two top MLB prospects, Enrique Bradfield Jr. and Jackson Holiday, as his fastball touched 102 mph multiple times in the appearance.
Skenes spoke after the game about his performance.
“That’s why we play the game, to have cool matchups like that,” Skenes said afterward.
Dunne and Skenes began dating after the star gymnast watched him pitch at LSU when the team won the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska.
