Olivia “Livvy” Dunne remains one of the biggest U.S. women’s gymnastics supporters at the Paris Olympics.
The star LSU gymnast and social media sensation hit Bercy Arena on Tuesday to cheer on Simone Biles and Team USA, who earned the gold medal in the team final.
In one video captured on Dunne’s Instagram Stories, Biles — now the most decorated U.S. gymnast in Olympic history with eight medals — is seen performing her enthralling floor routine that earned her a score of 14.666.

“These past four years have changed my life. There is something about putting on a purple and gold leotard,” Dunne said in an Instagram video. “… And no matter how many opportunities come my way off the mat, there’s just something about LSU. And that’s why I’m here to say, I’m not done yet.
“Here’s to year 5, baby.”
Though Dunne has been making the most of her time in Paris, an Olympics pursuit doesn’t appear to be in her future.
“I don’t think I’m going to try for the Olympics or anything after, since I once competed for Team USA and I closed that chapter and went to LSU,” she told The Post exclusively in June.
