The 2024 Paris Olympics are now a vibrant memory. But it would be remembered more for one standout act of an athlete. And that is how Simone Biles’ remarkable resurgence reaffirmed her name as the most decorated U.S. gymnast in history. However, this was already predicted by the standout collegiate gymnast Olivia Dunne. While Dunne already stands on a pedestal when it comes to collegiate gymnastics, she did not forget to root for the triumphant comeback of the gymnastics queen.

In an interview at an award show before the Paris Olympics 2024, Livvy Dunne publicly celebrated Biles’s achievements and offered a heartfelt prediction of her success. The moment from that glamorous red carpet resurfaces in our minds again, as the renowned LSU gymnast has recently revealed another secret connection that she has with Simone Biles. 

Olivia Dunne, who prophesied Simone Biles’ Olympic comeback, revealed another unexpected connection

LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne, dazzling in a silver sequined dress, offered a powerful endorsement of Simone Biles that resonated far beyond the glitz of the ESPY Awards back in June 2024. While having a conversation with Sports Illustrated, Dunne shared a sentiment that was a prescient affirmation of Biles’s return to Olympic glory. She referred to Biles’ Paris quest as a ‘revenge tour’ referring to her comeback after the major setback she faced in the Tokyo Olympics. Dunne stated, “Simone has always been a GOAT, and I think that this is like her revenge tour. What happened in 2020 was a freak thing, and I think that she’s out for revenge and she’s gonna probably win.”

As Simone stepped into Paris, she made sure to prove Dunne’s words of support to be prophetic. She had not only won the medals, but with her winning streak and impeccable scores, she indeed reclaimed her GOAT status in her ‘revenge tour’. Weeks after the Paris Olympics, Dunne recently revealed an intriguing connection with Biles. In a candid Instagram post by the official page of Louisiana State University Gymnastics, Olivia Dunne, alongside other LSU gymnasts, was caught sharing the names of notable figures in their contact list.

While few of the gymnasts named Livvy to be the most popular one in their contacts, Olivia Dunne revealed the name of the gymnastics queen, Simone Biles, besides other renowned gymnasts and athletes. Such a revelation not only highlights the deep respect Dunne has for the gymnastics icon but also unravels the personal connection that is fostered between the two gymnastics icons. Besides Biles, Livvy also mentioned her beloved boyfriend Paul Skenes’ name and the other gymnasts who made it to Paris 2024 in the list of popular names in her contact list. While Simone Biles has already made it to the top of the world, Olivia Dunne too is rising and shining with her spectacular caliber.
