The event was in collaboration with the Pittsburgh Pirates' team.

For the event, Dunne was seen donning a one-shoulder pink one-piece, which she paired with minimal jewelry and transparent heels. The social media star opted for a sleek ponytail, perfectly complementing the outfit. Dunne posed for the picture with the Pittsburgh Pirates players' partners, including outfielder Bryan Patrick's partner Blaire, and right fielder Henry Davis' partner Sofia.

In a recent interview with pagesix.com, she highlighted that she receives hate similar to American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, who is dating Kansas City Chiefs' Travis Kelce. She further expressed her opinion that some people are still uncomfortable with successful women in sports.

“I think that she takes the heat a lot worse than I do, because, I mean, the bigger you are, the more people you have trying to tear you down,” she said. “It just really resonated with me. It’s a unique position to be in. And I think for some people, women in sports is uncomfortable for some reason.”

Olivia Dunne and Paul Skenes made their relationship public in August 2023.
