"I'm going to be done with gymnastics, which is a crazy thing to say," Dunne said in an exclusive with PEOPLE.
"So I'm going to have more freedom. I'm going to have way more freedom. I've been a competitive gymnast since I was three years old."

Apart from being an integral part of the gymnastics world, Livvy Dunne was also a high-profile college athlete.

She had the highest NIL valuation in all of the women's sports, over $4 million, which helped change the Name, Image and Likeness game for other female stars.
