American sensation Olivia Dunne has adopted a fresh role in her life. It’s oddly unrelated to her previously known roles as an influencer, an LSU gymnast, a member of the US Team, or even Paul Skenes’ girlfriend. The LSU senior recently adopted the role of a dog mom for a beloved furry baby named Roux. Now, Livvy has her 14M fans on various social media platforms drooling with love for her snow-white-fur companion. Notably, Dunne takes her mommy duties quite seriously in addition to her professional commitment as the highest-paid female college athlete.
Olivia embraces the extra duty; Showing endearing hugs, and even the recent Halloween costume moments with Roux, which many pet owners could relate to. However, despite a happily curated digital persona, Dunne shared an unusual hint in her recent post.

In a Halloween update that Livvy posted with her fans, Roux was dressed as a cute hot dog with ketchup on top and yellow mustard stripes against a pumpkin backdrop. Olivia, meanwhile, transformed into the bold Game of Thrones character Khaleesi. Everything seemed normal until Taylor Swift, the superstar of the pop world, unexpectedly showed up on her Snapchat story. A collage featuring Roux in the backseat of the car and Swift’s most recent album, “Is It Over Now? (Taylor’s Version) [From The Vault],” raised rumors of a secret message.

Dunne is known for sharing updates about her life on social media platforms, which didn’t hint at anything. But now speculation on her relationship with boyfriend Paul Skenes has arisen due to her apparent Swiftie status. While there was more to the update than meets the eye! In her mommy era, the gymnast playfully captioned it, “culturing the young one.” If you’re a Swiftie and a pet owner, this is just enough to melt your heart or even make your day better!
