Olivia Dunne is one of the most-followed collegiate athletes on social media, with over 6 million followers on TikTok and 2 million on Instagram, as of this writing. Yet that didn't happen overnight, considering she started posting at the young age of 10. She recalled to the New York Post, "I took it so seriously and people were always like, 'Why are you doing this?' ... It has benefited me in the end." While keeping up with it can still get overwhelming, it's apparently more second nature to her these days. "I don't feel too much pressure, because doing social media is always something that I've loved," she said.

This level of dedication, paired with filling up time with some fun during the COVID-19 pandemic, is what seemingly helped her get people's attention online. She dished, "I was quarantined in Florida and I just started making content at the beach, doing flips." She stumbled into TikTok fame similarly, telling WGNO ABC, "I was like you know what I'm going to post gymnastics and show my talent, and a little bit of my personality."

However, Dunne admitted that TikTok was initially more challenging. "TikTok, I feel is where you can express yourself more ... and I'm still trying to open up more," she said. That may be why fans seemingly don't realize she's more than just a gymnast or a glamorous influencer until they actually meet her. "They're always surprised, like, ... 'I didn't know you were this friendly,'" Dunne noted.
