College gymnast Olivia Dunne forced to shut down fans' weird demands about boyfriend

Olivia Dunne's fans have made quite a unique suggestion to the gymnast, forcing her to shut down their 'weird' demands.

Olivia, often referred to as Livvy, is a successful American gymnast and was formerly on the USA national team.

Away from sports, Olivia has quite the social media following and boasts over 5 million Instagram followers and nearly 8 million TikTok followers.

She's very active on social media, and in recent days shared a fun video with fellow media personality and baseballer Jackson Olsen.

In the video, Olivia is seen dancing to Tokyo Vanity's 'That's My Best Friend', before Jackson appears dancing to the same song while wearing a yellow kilt.

"@thesavbananas kilt goes crazy," the gymnast caption the clip that's been viewed 2.2 million times to date.

And in light of it being viewed so many times, there seems to be a trending theme in the comments that refer to Olivia's boyfriend.

As of last year, the 21-year-old has been dating Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes, also 21.

Someone suggested: "Jackson Olson vs Paul skenes in a hitting vs pitching matchup?"

Away from sport, another wrote: "Paul vs Jackson! Winner gets livvy, Paul is going to be mad if he loses."

Another person echoed similar sentiments, to which Olivia replied: "I’m just making content with the @thesavbananas relax."

Others suggested that her beau Paul might be 'p*ssed' about the TikTok video.

One of her followers said: "Paul Skenes is p*ssed."

"Bro f**k are you doing don’t do that sh*t to Paul," penned a second.

Another urged Paul to 'watch out', which Olivia replied 'plz' to - likely meaning to please stop with such a narrative.

Olivia has bigger fish to fry than concentrate on people's comments online however, as the 21-year-old recently won Louisiana State University's SEC Gymnastics Championship.

She performed on vault, then switched to bars and beam before wrapping up on the floor, Mail Online reports.

Olivia is the highest paid NCAA female athlete, and reportedly makes seven-figures a year.

While she earns a huge sum, she's long been campaigning for equal pay for men and women.

"Opportunities for men and women in NCAA sports should be equal. But a lot of the NIL collectives only go to men's athletics," she told PEOPLE last year.

"I want to show you can do whatever you love — whether it's gymnastics or music or painting — and capitalize on it and create your own business."
