Olivia “Livvy” Dunne has had her fair share of viral moments, but this time, it wasn’t for a TikTok dance or a fashion-forward Instagram post. Instead, it was her pit stains that stole the spotlight during boyfriend Paul Skenes’ final start of the MLB season. Dunne was spotted in a private suite at Great American Ball Park on Wednesday night, nervously watching as Skenes capped off his Cy Young-worthy sophomore campaign with a sub-2.00 ERA in the Pirates’ 4-3 win over the Reds in 11 innings.
The former NCAA champion gymnast wore jeans and a gray long-sleeve top while recording the action on her phone, even appearing to yell, “Come on!” as the game reached its nail-biting conclusion. She later reposted clips of herself to her Instagram Stories, writing, “can’t blame a gal for being nervous.” But while her emotions captured fans’ attention, so did something else… Visible sweat stains under her arms.
A local broadcast camera panned to Dunne stretching with her hands above her head, revealing noticeable underarm sweat. Screenshots quickly made their way to X (formerly Twitter), where one user quipped, “I guess that’s why they call it Pittsburgh.” Others piled on, with one comment reading, “Looks like spray tan coming off in her sweat.” Another joked, “Well it’s safe to say that’s the last time she’s wearing something white that isn’t sleeveless in public.”
Fans Say Livvy Dunne’s Pit Stain Moment Could Be A Dove Ad
The jokes didn’t stop there. One fan compared the moment to Pittsburgh’s notoriously tough sports reputation, “Every time the Pirates blow a lead, another shirt in Pittsburgh earns its wings.” Another imagined the viral clip as part of an ad campaign, writing, “This would make for a really good Dove commercial.”
Despite the sweat stains, Dunne’s loyalty to Skenes continues to make her a fan favorite in Pittsburgh. And if social media is any indication, this latest clip will join her ever-growing list of viral game-day highlights, reminding everyone that even when the spotlight turns unflattering, Livvy has a way of owning it.
