Livvy Dunne caught swearing after Paul Skenes gives up home run
A visibly frustrated Livvy Dunne was caught on camera using profanity after her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes, surrendered a leadoff home run to George Springer on Saturday at Rogers Centre in Toronto.
Skenes, the reigning National League Cy Young Award winner, threw his third pitch of the game a 97 mph fastball that Springer sent 396 feet to left field. Dunne, a former LSU gymnastics star and social media influencer who regularly attends Skenes’ starts, was shown on the Sportsnet broadcast cheering “Let’s go, Paul!” moments before the hit. After the ball cleared the fence, she appeared to mouth an expletive and slumped back in her seat with a dejected expression.
Broadcaster Dan Shulman commented on Dunne’s engagement during the game. “I believe she attends almost every single game of his and she is invested,” Shulman said. “She is not just sitting around and looking around. She is into the game emotional, occasionally profane but she is invested in the successes and rare failures of her Cy Young winning boyfriend Paul Skenes.”
Later, Dunne posted the clip to her Instagram story with the caption, “Me just trying to listen to meditation music.”
