Skenes recently completed his third MLB campaign with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Although the team failed to secure a place in the playoffs, the end of the regular season gave the 24-year-old pitcher some much-needed time away from the baseball diamond.

For Dunne, the break also comes after an especially busy period.

The former gymnast has continued building her career as one of the most recognizable personalities in sports and social media.

She has also taken on a new entertainment opportunity by joining the cast of the upcoming Baywatch reboot.

The production, which is scheduled for release in January, marked another major project for Dunne.

With filming now completed, she has been able to put her professional commitments aside temporarily and enjoy some quality time with her boyfriend.

Their Japanese adventure has already included visits to some of the country’s most recognizable destinations.

The couple initially traveled to Tokyo before making their way to Kyoto, where they have been exploring the city’s streets and taking in the local atmosphere.

Dunne offered followers a particularly sweet moment from their travels when she posted a video of Skenes carrying her as they headed out together.

‘The view is good up here :),’ she captioned the clip, joking about the advantage of seeing everything from the much taller baseball player’s shoulders.

The video featured Lana Del Rey’s romantic track ‘Video Games’ playing in the background, adding to the affectionate mood of the post.

While fans were quick to comment on the couple’s chemistry, some Pittsburgh Pirates supporters had something else on their minds.

Several followers immediately began examining which arm Skenes had used to carry his girlfriend, with baseball fans clearly concerned about protecting the pitcher’s throwing arm during his offseason.

‘Easy on his throwing arm,’ one person joked in the comments.

Another fan appeared relieved after noticing that Skenes was using his left arm.

‘He picked her up with his left arm. Baseball is safe,’ the follower wrote.

Others continued the playful discussion, with another commenter writing, ‘Easy on the arm Livvy.’

Dunne’s sister Julz also joined the conversation, making a humorous observation about the way the influencer was being carried.

‘It’s the way you’re just dangling there,’ she commented, drawing attention to how effortlessly Skenes appeared to lift her.

Meanwhile, another follower focused on the couple’s relationship rather than the baseball star’s pitching arm.

‘Never tire of you and Paul doing these videos. You two are too cute!’ the fan wrote.

The video was not the only vacation update that attracted attention. Dunne also shared a photograph of herself wearing a kimono during the couple’s stay in Japan.

The traditional outfit offered a different look from the swimwear and athletic-inspired appearances fans are accustomed to seeing from the former gymnast.

The photograph quickly became another talking point among her followers.

Dunne has built a substantial online following through a combination of gymnastics content, lifestyle updates and glimpses into her personal life.

Her relationship with Skenes has also attracted considerable attention, particularly among sports fans who follow the Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher.

The pair have previously had to work around their demanding schedules to find time together. During the MLB All-Star break, they managed to enjoy a shorter vacation before Skenes returned to his pitching responsibilities.

Their latest trip, however, offers a longer opportunity to travel together now that the baseball season has concluded.

For Skenes, the offseason provides a chance to recharge following another demanding campaign in the major leagues. For Dunne, it marks a welcome break after balancing her social media career with her latest television project.

And judging by their latest updates, the couple are making the most of their time in Japan, with sightseeing, romantic moments and plenty of opportunities to keep their followers entertained.
