With the season done, Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes is spending more time in New Orleans, Louisiana, to be with his girlfriend Olivia Dunne, who's in her fifth and final season with the LSU Tigers gymnastics team.
Dunne's NCAA gymnastics season is about to start, and her fellow seniors Haleigh Bryant, Sierra Ballard, Chase Brock and Alyona Shchennikova are also returning to defend their NCAA title. However, once in a while, the LSU couple make sure to go on dates to enjoy each other's company.
On Sunday night, Dunne and Skenes were at a restaurant in Louisiana where the LSU gymnast captured a candid snap of the pitcher who was going through the menu during a candlelight dinner.
The caption on the image says "Le Bébé," which is French for "the baby," implying a term of endearment. In another snap, Paul Skenes can be seen rolling his eyes, sneakingly looking at the camera held by her social media star girlfriend.
Olivia Dunne says contrasting personality with Paul Skenes "really works"
In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE in October, Olivia Dunne spoke about the nature of her personality compared to her beau Paul Skenes.
Dunne said that the couple are "complete opposites" as she compared their relationship with "I feel like we're like yin and yang." It's a concept from Taoism, symbolizing balance, harmony and the interplay of opposites within a partnership
Dunne is a social media star, boasting over five million followers on Instagram alone.
"I love doing social media, and I enjoy being in the spotlight," Dunne said.
Skenes also has a social media account but rarely uses it. And, as per Dunne, the Pirates ace "doesn't even have social media on his phone" and shared that he "doesn't like it at all."
"We're just very opposite, and I feel like it really works," Dunne added.
It has been close to two years since Olivia Dunne and Paul Skenes started dating. The couple had met when Skenes was in LSU, playing college baseball for the Tigers.
