Olivia Dunne raved about the unique birthday present she received from boyfriend Paul Skenes after turning 22 on Tuesday.
The LSU gymnast received a thoughtful present from the Pittsburgh Pirates rookie – who decided to skip traditional birthday presents for Dunne’s special day.
The MLB ace linked with Topps to create a custom Pirates trading card featuring Dunne and her dog Roux in front. The card also included Roux’s stats in the back, including date of birth, breed, weight, favorite activity, and favorite food.
Dunne was thrilled with the present, posting snaps of the card on her Snapchat story and writing ‘ELITE GIFT LOL.’
Born on June 29, 2023, the 55-lb English Retriever is fond of eating steaks and chewing on sticks, according to the card. Dunne was also listed as ‘Liv’ under Roux’s favorite human.

Besides the card, Skenes also posted a birthday shoutout for his girlfriend on Instagram, writing ‘Happy birthday Liv!’ with a series of photos with the TikTok star.
After helping Skenes with the gift Topps praised the pitcher for his efforts, writing ‘Paul Skenes has GAME both on and off the field,’ on Instagram.
After a stellar start to his MLB career, Skenes is part of a tight race for the National League Rookie of the Year award.
On the other hand, Dunne is back in LSU for her fifth and final year with the Tigers gymnastics team.
Her final campaign follows their NCAA title-winning efforts at the end of her senior year. The 2023-24 team brought the university’s first national title in gymnastics to Baton Rouge after a dominant regular season.

Dunne recently starred in the six-part Amazon Prime docuseries ‘The Money Game – LSU’ featuring some of the university’s best athletes last season.
Outside of gymnastics and campus grounds, Dunne continues to find success as an influencer and brand ambassador – recently headlining Nautica’s fall 2024 campaign with Mizzou football star Luther Burden III before returning to their respective schools.
