College gymnast and social media influencer Olivia “Livvy” Dunne beamed with pride when her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes, was named the 2024 National League Rookie of the Year on Monday. The nerve-wracking moment went viral, with Skenes appearing shell-shocked as Dunne cheered.
Dunne wore a bright red spaghetti-strap dress with cream pastel patterns. The form-fitting, calf-length gown featured an open back. She accessorized with simple earrings, bracelets and clear heels. On Instagram, she shared more celebratory photos, including one holding a cookie cake that read “Rookie & A Cookie. Congrats Roy!”
