He was supporting his partner Camille Kostek, who was also a SI Swimsuit model this year.
Gronk shared a kiss with his lady in red Camille as the pair entered the venue.
Kostek held a bunch of flowers as she arrived with the former NFL tight end.
Livvy previously said hearing the news that she was chosen as one of the SI swimsuit models was "a dream come true."
She said: "There are a lot of young girls that look up to me and I feel like a lot of young girls also follow Sports Illustrated.
"So, both of our brands align because we both want to inspire the younger generation."
Dunne surged to the top of the list of the highest-earning U.S. female student-athletes after joining LSU's gymnastics team.
The New Jersey native took full advantage of the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) - the regulatory body for student athletics in the U.S. - legalizing name, image, and likeness (NIL) deals in 2021.

That move allowed Dunne to become one of the faces of college sports.
Livvy's rise was fueled by her rapidly growing social media presence, with the gymnast boasting over four million followers on Instagram and more than seven million on TikTok.
