Paul Skenes' girlfriend, Livvy Dunne, is the highest-paid college female athlete, and one of the first NIL deals that she signed was with clothing brand Vuori in 2021. She uses her social media platform to promote the brand's products and her latest post was in line with that.
On the side of a pool, Dunne was in a handstand position, highlighting her gymnastic abilities off the mat as well. She wore a black swimsuit from Vuori and tagged the brand in her story.
Early in May, Livvy Dunne toppled LeBron James' son, Bronny James for the second spot on On3's NIL rankings among all college athletes. She now only trails Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders for the top spot.
Moreover, this summer she also signed a one-of-a-kind deal with the content monetization platform "Passes." As per On3, her current NIL valuation stands at $3.9 million.
Livvy Dunne gets nervous while watching Paul Skenes pitch from the stands
Livvy Dunne and Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes have been seeing each other since their time at LSU and both individuals have raised banners for the university in their respective sports. While Skenes won the College World Series, Dunne won the NCAA championship in gymnastics in April.
Skenes marked another milestone in his baseball career when he took the major league mound for the first time against the Chicago Cubs with her girlfriend cheering him on from the stands. Bleacher Report interviewed the social media sensation, during which Dunne reveals she gets more nervous when Skenes is on the mound.
"I get more nervous watching Paul because it’s just different when you’re not doing it, and you’re not in control," she told the reporter. "But I am confident in his abilities, and I kind of channel those nerves into excitement for him."
Apart from attending Skenes' games at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, Dunne is also active in networking. In May, she once again featured in the Sports Illustrated 60th-anniversary Swimsuit Issue and subsequently attended promotional campaigns throughout the country.
