Olivia Dunne gushes on Paul Skenes' hard-throwing pitching abilities
On July 16, Olivia Dunne and Paul Skenes made their red carpet debut at the MLB All-Star game held in Arlington, Texas, at Globe Life Field. While Dunne was in a glittering silver dress, Skenes was in a white suit with a black tie.
As both made their way through the red carpet, Dunne was asked to share her insight on the Pirates ace's abilities on the mound.
“My brain can’t even process how hard he throws. It is incredible, and it’s such a joy to watch.” Dunne praises Skenes during the interview “And he’s a great baseball player but an even better person.”
Throughout this season, Dunne has been present at PNC Park to watch her boyfriend dominate hitters from the mound. She was there when Skenes made his debut earlier this season and also during his time at LSU when he won the College World Series in 2023.
The couple are popular in their respective professions, with Dunne also raising a banner at LSU after winning the NCAA championship in gymnastics with fellow Lady Tigers.
