Livvy Dunne STUNS in sizzling photo shoot for Maxim, confessing she loves the limelight as much as Taylor Swift

Livvy Dunne looked incredible gracing the cover of Maxim as she builds on her booming career as a model.

The star posed in a series of sizzling outfits alongside the interview in which she reflected on her new life after leaving her sports career behind.

The 23-year-old had competed as a gymnast at LSU and won an NCAA Championship in 2024 but alongside her sporting achievements, she built a huge social media presence that she is now tapping into for the next stage of her life.

Dunne, who is dating MLB star Paul Skenes, told Maxim about how much she relishes being in the spotlight and how she tries to be as comfortable as Taylor Swift with the cameras.

She said: 'I love the red carpet. I love the glitz and glam of it. There’s no denying that.

'You don’t really think a Taylor Swift that’s in the spotlight doesn’t actually enjoy it? She does.'

She has recently moved to New York City, buying a $2million apartment near the West Village.

She grew up in New Jersey before making a name for herself at LSU, so living in the Big Apple isn't too much of a change.

'It's a great place to be when you’re young in your 20s,' Dunne said of her Manhattan move.

She'll likely be traveling around a lot, however, once the baseball season starts at the end of March.

Boyfriend Skenes recently won the Cy Young Award in what has been a meteoric start to his baseball career with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The pair met at LSU and have been together since 2023.

Dunne made as many of Skenes's Pirates games as she could last season and the team is trying to surround their star man with enough talent to finally compete for his first postseason appearance in 2026.

'I get what it takes to be great at what you do, and he’s one of the best. So we have a mutual respect,' she said of her relationship with Skenes.

Dunne describes herself as 'a former athlete and honestly, right now, model' to Maxim, words that echo a poignant TikTok post she shared with her eight million followers last week.

She shared a clip of her in gymnastics practice from last year, captioning the footage: 'Watching videos of what my body was capable of a year ago like it's my dead wife.'

Dunne further captioned the video: 'How tf did I do that'.

But while she might not retain the athletic poise that naturally comes with competing every week, her star is only rising.
