Olivia Dunne may have gifted her sister a dream car, but Julz Dunne just returned the favor with something arguably more valuable. An expertly timed roast. On the heels of a lavish birthday celebration, a Nobu dinner, and a headline-making surprise, the Dunne sisters are back in the spotlight. This time, for a social media exchange that had fans genuinely entertained.
The Dunne sisters’ bond is no secret. Olivia and Julz often appear together on social media, from coordinated birthday dinners to front-row appearances at events like Athlete Con. Earlier this week, Olivia posted photos of herself in a black bodysuit paired with low-rise jeans, complete with glossy lips and glitter-dusted makeup. The dinner was in celebration of Julz’s 24th birthday. The one Livvy made unforgettable by blindfolding her sister and driving her to a secret location where a brand-new Jeep Wrangler awaited.
“Best surprise from the best sister! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH… now get in loser,” Julz commented on the video, referencing their close-knit, irreverent rapport.

Olivia, never one to shy away from a stylish Instagram moment, asked her followers to submit funny captions for a sultry Polaroid of her dressed in that same dinner outfit. She promised to award the signed photo to the best response. What she likely didn’t anticipate was that her sister would sweep in and steal the prize with a single sarcastic line.
Dozens of followers replied. But Julz’s comment stopped the scroll. “12th year senior yearbook photo,” commented Julz. The jab, clearly referencing the ongoing jokes about Olivia’s prolonged college eligibility, hit its mark. It was sharp, specific, and perfectly delivered.
The LSU heartthrob didn’t hesitate to name a winner. In a follow-up reply, she conceded, “@julzdunne you win go get the Polaroid in the living room.” The exchange wasn’t just a family inside joke. It showcased how the Dunne sisters balance glamor with humor, and how Julz continues to play a vocal, grounded presence in Olivia’s fast-paced, high-profile world.
Surely, their online banter is more than entertainment. It reflects an authentic sisterhood that fans have come to admire. Whether exchanging birthday gifts or Instagram roasts, Julz and Olivia Dunne prove they aren’t just social media stars. They’re each other’s favorite audience.
The duo further extended their strong bond of sisterhood by appearing in the Athleticon 2.0.

Livvy and Julz Dunne take charge at AthleteCon 2.0 Q&A
The second edition of AthleteCon concluded with a pointed display of clarity and conviction, as Olivia and Julz Dunne led a live Q&A that drew one of the conference’s most attentive crowds. Their session, held in Charlotte during the final hours of the event, unfolded not as a lecture but as a measured dialogue, shaped by the sisters’ direct engagement with student-athletes navigating the evolving terrain of NIL opportunities. It was not performative. It was procedural, honest, and grounded in firsthand knowledge.

Perhaps the most consequential aspect of their appearance was the role of the Livvy Fund, which did not merely serve as a backdrop but as a participating partner in the event. “AthleteCon is the only NIL event where athletes receive hands-on training on the latest technology to build their personal brand,” Olivia stated, in what read as both endorsement and assertion. Her fund’s presence added an infrastructure of support to the conversation, reinforcing the Dunnes’ central theme.
NIL is no longer experimental, and it should be treated with the precision and foresight of any legitimate professional track.
