Livvy Dunne, the former LSU gymnast and now girlfriend of Pittsburgh Pirates star pitcher Paul Skenes, put herself through an "ultimate test of trust" during a bullpen session at spring training. In a video posted on Instagram Stories, Dunne can be seen braving Skenes' pitches in the batter's box.
For those who may not know, trust falls are typically a staple for couples in many relationships. However, it seems that for Dunne and Skenes, building trust is an entirely different story. The duo has been dating since 2023, and their bond has been put to the test time and again.
Dunne has been spotted watching Skenes pitch across the country as he's risen through the ranks of Major League Baseball quickly. Now, with spring training underway, she's once again shown her support by stepping up to the plate alongside him.
The video posted on Instagram Stories shows Dunne taking a seat in the batter's box while Skenes delivers a series of pitches. She's been described as "braving" the fastballs, but it seems that this was more of a training exercise for Skenes than an actual game scenario.
Dunne captioned her post with the phrase "The ultimate test of trust," suggesting that she believes their relationship has hit a pivotal point where trust is being put to the ultimate test. It's clear that Dunne and Skenes have a strong bond, but it's also evident that they're pushing each other to new heights – both on and off the field.
Skenes has had an incredible rise to fame in MLB, earning himself a spot on the All-Star team for the second year in a row. He's known for his blazing fastball, which can reach triple digits, making him one of the most feared pitchers in the league.
Dunne's support is no surprise given her high profile as a social media influencer and former gymnast turned reality TV star. However, it's clear that she's found a new passion in life – being by Skenes' side both on and off the field.
With spring training underway and the World Baseball Classic just around the corner, Dunne and Skenes will be pushing themselves to new heights together. Whether they're facing the ultimate test of trust or simply enjoying each other's company, one thing is clear – their relationship has reached a whole new level.

. I'm loving how she's stepping up to support him during his spring training sessions – it's a testament to their strong bond 
. Trust falls are one thing, but trust exercises like this? That's a whole different level of commitment 
. I'm shipping these two and can't wait to see what the future holds for them!

. Like, congrats on that, Livvy, you've finally found a way to be involved in your relationship without having to lift a finger... or swing a bat 
. It's not like Skenes is exactly pushing himself to new heights just because he's got a hot girlfriend cheering him on 
. And honestly, who needs trust falls when you've got 100mph fastballs, right? 
. But hey, if being in the batter's box while Skenes throws 100mph fastballs is what she needs to feel secure in their relationship, then I'm all for it 
. It's actually kind of sweet how supportive she's been with his MLB career and now he's supporting her passions too 
!
... I guess that's what I call making a statement about trust and commitment 
And how do we know she wasn't just doing it for the 'Gram likes 
?
. And what if this is just a publicity stunt? 
Either way, I'm here for the drama and the romance 
️
. As a fan, I'm loving every minute of their relationship growth 
. Can't wait to see what the rest of baseball season brings for them (and Paul's blazing fastball 
)!
. Still, props to Skenes for putting her through this "test" and showing off his skills 
.
It's awesome that she's stepping up to the plate and taking on this "ultimate test of trust" but has she been thinking about what could go wrong? 
I mean, it's not like they're just playing for fun, they're in a high-pressure relationship where trust is literally being put to the ultimate test. 
Let me know what you guys think! 
. also, what's with all the drama around their relationship? they're just a normal couple, even if he is a pro athlete now 
.
. But what really gets me is how Livvy Dunne is finding her own passion in supporting him on and off the field. She's not just a pretty face
