Olivia Dunne ushered in couples vibes as she let fans in on her dinner date with boyfriend Paul Skenes recently. The LSU gymnast, 22, updated her TikTok at the end of October, showing off her appetite and her love of seafood as she and her baseball player beau tucked into a massive feast.
Marking her seafood boil experience and calling it the “key to my heart” in her caption, Olivia showed off a cute pigtail hairdo, low-key flaunting her fit figure as she rocked a simple dark top. Fans, who always find a reason to rip Olivia apart, mocked her, with a popular comment coming from a fan calling seafood boils “trash.” Olivia, who occasionally responds to fans, does not appear to have addressed the backlash.
Gymnast Olivia Dunne Hits The Seafood On TikTok
Looking like she was relishing her meal, Olivia ditched the glam posing she made Halloween headlines for — this year, she dressed up as Wonder Woman.
Shoveling all sorts of seafood into her mouth and with baseball player boyfriend Skenes sitting opposite her, the New Jersey native wrote: “This is your sign to take your girl to the seafood boil.”
Rocking a strappy black cami top that showed off her toned arms and shoulders, Olivia kept her look cute, wearing her blonde locks in braided pigtails. Adding a very light layer of makeup, she showed off her freckles, but the focus was the food. Licking her lips and wearing plastic clear gloves to handle the messy stuff, Olivia even cleared her plate, also nodding that this was clearly the place to be. At the end of the video, the social media star sent her fans the thumbs-up.
Getting Told Seafood Boil Is ‘Trash’
Fans didn’t exclusively appear in the mood to send Olivia love. “Seafood boils are trash lmao,” one user replied, gaining over 70 likes.
Getting personal, another said: “Hey Livvy how’s it feel that Paul doesn’t respect your reproductive rights.”
Olivia’s post was still a hit, gaining over 95,000 likes. The star, who is now undergoing a fifth year at LSU, has revealed that her career took off during the global pandemic, when views to her TikToks could easily hit 10 million. As of 2021, Olivia is the most-followed NCAA athlete on social media and also boasts over 5 million Instagram followers.
“I don’t feel too much pressure, because doing social media is always something that I’ve loved, and I’ve always taken it pretty seriously,” the gymnast told NY Post about managing her high-profile online presence. That presence is now earning Olivia seven figures as she promotes brands including Vuori Clothing, Aveeno, and Dick’s Sporting Goods.
