Paul Skenes has been dating his girlfriend Olivia Dunne for a good two years.

Recently, Dunne decided to uncover this secret for her fans and recalled the time when her romance with Skenes sparked for the first time.
Olivia Dunne recalls first meeting with Paul Skenes
In June 2023, Olivia Dunne and Paul Skenes took the internet by storm when the couple revealed their relationship status. While most fans know the two met during their time at Louisiana State University, Dunne recently recalled the exact meeting point in an interview with ESPN on Friday.
During the interview, host Christine Williamson asked Olivia Dunne to reveal the "origin story" of her and boyfriend Paul Skenes' romance. Talking about how she saw Skenes for the first time at the "dugout" and found him "cute," Dunne recalled:
"I saw him in the dugout and I thought he was cute, but I could never actually watch him pitch, because he would pitch on Friday nights, and that's when we would be competing. So I had no clue what he was capable of at the time, and then I had friends introduce us, and we started dating." (4:23)
Dating Paul Skenes has changed a lot of things for Olivia Dunne, including her social media. In an interview with Glamour in November 2024, Dunne revealed how her social media audience includes a portion of Skenes' fans. Sharing details about the change, Dunne said:
“My social media has changed a bit because my audience that follows me also loves Paul. I have a lot of people come up to me in person and people tell me how much they love Paul, and I’m like, ‘Me too!’ I feel like people just like to cheer him on with me, and my social media has definitely grown. The MLB is a really big community and it’s been fun.”
