"I feel like we're like yin and yang" - Paul Skenes' girlfriend Olivia Dunne reveals why dating Pirates rookie works despite being 'complete opposite'

Pittsburgh Pirates star pitcher Paul Skenes' girlfriend Olivia Dunne shared some interesting insights about their relationship during an exclusive interview with PEOPLE magazine.

The young couple started dating when they were both going to school in LSU together. Skenes is now a major league pitcher, while Dunne is in her fifth year at university. While they are one of most popular celebrity couples in sport, Dunne revealed that they are very different people, and, in many ways, that's what makes their relationship work.

"I feel like we're like yin and yang. ... We're just very opposite, and I feel like it really works," Dunne said

Paul Skenes was selected by the Pittsburgh Pirates with the first overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft. After dominating in the minors, he made his major league debut this year.

He ended his rookie season with 1.96 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 170 strikeouts, which is one of the best ever from a rookie pitcher. Skenes started dating Olivia Dunne during his time in LSU, and they have grown into one of the biggest power couples in the country.

While they are adored across the country and beyond, Dunne has revealed that they are very different in many ways, and it helps their relationship work even better.

The LSU gymnast has over 10 million followers on social and admitted that she loves being in the spotlight and having a huge presence in social media. Skenes, meanwhile, is the complete opposite. Dunne revealed that the Pirates pitcher doesn't have social media on his phone at all.

Neverthekess, they have plenty in common when it comes to sports. Dunne says that Skenes often holds her accountable and helps her with his exemplary work ethic. In return, the social media sensation helps her boyfriend with his growing fame as continues to put in big performances in the MLB.
