The Fanatics Fest NYC 2025 (June 20–22 at Javits Center) returned twice as big as the previous one, with over 150,000 fans expected, featuring 500+ stars from leagues including WWE, NFL, and more. The festival featured the Museum of Greatness, which showcased $200M in memorabilia, including the FIFA World Cup trophy. Football great Roberto Carlos lifted the trophy one more time. But the weekend took an unexpected turn when gymnastics star Olivia Dunne got involved in a soccer practice session… and accidentally triggered a major mishap. The question now: Is the trophy still in one piece?

Olivia Dunne posted a reel, captioned, “I’m just a girl” on June 20, 2025, where the gymnastics star could be seen trying her legs on football. In the video, the woman had two pop‑up soccer goals in front of her and kept right between them as the FIFA World Cup trophy. She takes the aim and kicks, and instead of going into the goal, it hits the trophy, causing the globe part of it to fall. Immediately after this, she ran to the broken trophy and, after a failed attempt to put it back together, she could be seen running away from the scene.

She wrote in her reel that “breaking the World Cup trophy was not in my bingo cards,” but the deed was done. Before this, she shared the excitement of holding the World Cup trophy on her Instagram. She posted a story with the trophy standing on her lap, and she wrote, “idek how to act rn @fifaworldcup”. In another story posted by the gymnast, she could be seen holding the trophy with both her hands and lifting it up, a gesture quite common among soccer players when they lift a trophy.

Dunne officially retired from gymnastics in April 2025, marking the end of her five-year collegiate career at LSU. Ever since saying goodbye to her childhood sport, she has become more oriented towards supporting her boyfriend at his baseball games and her modeling career as well.

After officially retiring from gymnastics, Olivia wasted no time shifting her focus. She told People,” I’m super excited to be able to spend time with Paul. I’ve always had to train during my summers and stuff… So, to be able to not have to do gymnastics training and be able to spend more time in Pittsburgh with Paul, enjoying the baseball season, I’m looking forward to that. And hopefully the Pirates can turn things around.” And just like that, Olivia Dunne is now a common find on the stands whenever there is a Pittsburgh Pirates game.

On June 15, 2025, Dunne turned heads at the Men’s College World Series in Omaha while cheering on her boyfriend, Paul Skenes. She wore a custom-made split jersey that combined LSU purple and Pirates black and gold, boldly displaying both team logos in a cropped, sleeveless cut. Other than this, the woman is also doing great in deals with Sports Illustrated. She has cemented her status as a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit star, gracing the 2025 cover in Bermuda and previously appearing in 2023 and 2024 issues.

Off the field and camera, she’s investing in her future. Olivia completed her first semester of graduate school in technology management, bought an NYC apartment, and hinted at exploring on-screen work. When asked by PEOPLE if that was a tease for acting, Dunne had a hinting response. “I don’t know, I don’t know! Stay tuned!” she replied. What are your thoughts of seeing her act?
