Livvy Dunne is sharing her thoughts on boyfriend Paul Skenes’s new look for the new year.
On Jan. 1, the former gymnast, 23, posted a TikTok with the overlaid text, “pov: seeing ur bf without facial hair for the first time” — using a viral audio, “Oh my gosh! She’s bald!”
The Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher, also 23, ditched his iconic mustache for a clean-shaven look heading into 2026. His girlfriend of two years seemingly approved, writing in the caption of her post, “baby face cutieeee.”

Paul Skenes and Livvy Dunne
Their post together caps off a milestone year for both: Dunne appeared on a Sports Illustrated cover and made her runway debut, while Skenes received the National League Cy Young Award for being the league’s best pitcher throughout the 2025 season.
“’OH MY GOODNESSSSS!!!!’” Dunne gushed on her Instagram after Skenes was announced as the winner.
“I think that everything is a two-way road, so being fair,” Dunne told PEOPLE exclusively when discussing the No. 1 rule in their relationship.
“We don’t restrict each other from doing things,” she shared, explaining, “I’ve been in relationships in the past like that — where it’s almost like you have a leash on you, you can’t do anything.”
“But he has a job to do and I have a job to do — I know that’s so important for two young kids in a relationship to realize,” she continued. “So yeah, we just have a good time and it’s a two-way road.”

Dunne graduated from Louisiana State University in 2024, where she had a standout career on the LSU gymnastics team, and continues working with major brands while documenting her life on TikTok.
Speaking with PEOPLE in April 2025, Dunne reflected on the end of her gymnastics career and her hopes for the future, including spending more time with Skenes.
“I’m super excited to be able to spend time with Paul,” she said at the time. “I’ve always had to train during my summers and stuff… So to be able to not have to do gymnastics training and be able to spend more time in Pittsburgh with Paul enjoying the baseball season, I’m looking forward to that.”
She also talked about juggling all of her other opportunities as a model and content creator, noting, “It’s going to be a lot of fun and I’m excited to lean into this new lifestyle and be there for Paul.”
