Dunne, who has also posed for the iconic Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, opened up about how tough things can be.

“The worst part is that people think gymnastics is easy when it’s not. The job is to make it look beautiful and easy. You’re not doing it right if it looks hard…The social media aspect of it—I worked really hard to get to where I am in building my personal brand, and it didn’t happen in the blink of an eye. It didn’t happen in just a year. It didn’t happen because of one viral moment. It happened over years of getting to know my audience, learning the algorithms, and growing my brand to be what it is today. That’s why people are so fascinated with what I’m doing,” Dunne said.

Dunne wanted to make the best of her final year.

“To leave one more year of eligibility on the table?” Dunne added to Flaunt. “That felt wrong to me.”

Dunne will be fun to watch in 2024-25, that’s for sure.
