In an interview with People Magazine, Dunne shared her feelings on grabbing the national team title as she said:

"The first thing I did was start crying right after we won. I just felt like my team's hard work had finally paid off, just four years of working so hard towards a common goal. I think it's so special to have a group of young women all have a common goal in mind and then work to reach that goal and then win. That is so rewarding."

Olivia Dunne recently announced her retirement from competitive gymnastics. She mentioned that she would focus her future efforts on her social media platforms and her NIL Brand, as well as being involved in gymnastics in some form.
