‘Disgusting creepers’ – Gymnast Olivia Dunne lands in trouble after fans cause ruckus during college season-opening meet

Olivia Dunne, the college gymnast, boasts a huge fan base across America with over 2.7 million followers on Instagram and one has to agree that the star saw the downside of it during the recent college-season opening meet when her fans hurled at other gymnasts requesting Dunne’s presence. 

For the unversed, the young gymnast was not on the lineup and the fans left no stone unturned to slam the fellow Utah gymnast Jillian Hoffman, who fell victim to swears from Dunne’s fans. One has to agree that Dunne’s growth has been phenomenal and the fanbase is only increasing with every passing day, however, recent events have put her under the radar. 

Hoffman’s mother Jennifer said that her daughter was subjected to disgraceful remarks, as Dunne’s fans swarmed them as they rushed back to the car. Further, Jennifer said that the 20-year-old’s fans were calling her daughter Livvy (Olivia Dunne) 2.0 and wanted to take pictures with her. 

Olivia Dunne takes to Twitter to express regret over recent incident

“As we were walking to the car the group swarmed my daughter and her teammate. They literally said to their faces, you are not Livvy but you will do, can we get a picture. (The group) also called my daughter Livvy 2.0. They were so rude and disrespectful,” Jennifer was quoted as saying as she exposed Dunne’s fans. 

Shocked and rattled by the same, the young gymnast took to Twitter on January 9, Monday, to express her displeasure over the recent developments and said that fans ought to respect other gymnasts as well. Many claimed that her tweet would not be of any impact, although one has to agree that it holds significance. 

“I will always appreciate and love the support from you guys, but if you come to a meet, I want to ask you to please be respectful of the other gymnasts and the gymnastics community as we are just doing our job,” Dunner wrote on Twitter following the incident.
