LSU's favorite couple—and Pittsburgh's fans—went home happy Saturday.
pitcher Paul Skenes brings enough star power to MLB by himself, given his status as one of the most breathlessly anticipated pitching prospects of this century.
However, his girlfriend may be even more famous. Gymnast Livvy Dunne—like Skenes—was a national champion at LSU, and has achieved fame far and wide on social media with 13 million followers between Instagram and TikTok."All I can say is that's the quickest I've ever packed in my life," Dunne said of Skenes getting the call to the major leagues. "He was like, 'Let's pack.' So we hit the road.
Paul Skenes' girlfriend and LSU gymnastics champion Livvy Dunne talks about how it's more nerve-wracking watching him pitch than competing herselfSkenes finished his first outing with seven strikeouts in four innings, while allowing six hits and three earned runs in an eventual 10–9 Pittsburgh win. "I have so many amazing memories for him but I know how hard he's worked for this moment," Dunne said. Asked how she compared Skenes's debut with her own national championship, she added that it was "way harder to be the person in the stands watching because I'm not in control."
