Olivia Dunne, the popular college athlete who has been on the rise, has kept her dating life quite private. The gymnast recently appeared for SI Swimsuit 2023. With all the things in play, Dunne never commented on her dating life. Recently, all the rumors were confirmed.

Paul Skenes and Dunne have been together for a while, and until now, their relationship was only rumored. Skenes, the first pick of the 2023 MLB draft, confirmed dating rumors via the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. The couple are quite famous athletes in their respective sports. Skenes pointed out some of the challenges he faces dating the LSU star:

"It's nice for sure. It can be a pain in the bu*t sometimes, to be honest, in terms of actually going somewhere. If one of us went out in Baton Rouge by ourselves, there’s probably gonna be someone there asking for something, picture, autograph, whatever." said Skenes

She really doesn’t either. I’m sure it’ll get better as I go up levels, but that’s something I want for her." added Skenes.
