Livvy Dunne, Ilona Maher Pose for 2026 Sports Illustrated Issue in Trending Photos
Livvy Dunne and Ilona Maher have been confirmed to appear in the 2026 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.
The official SI Swimsuit Instagram unveiled images showing Dunne and Maher posing for this year's issue.
This marks the fourth consecutive year that Dunne will be in the issue. The former LSU gymnast made her debut in 2023 and was one of four unique cover models from the 2025 issue.
Actress Salma Hayek Pinault, two-time Olympic medalist Jordan Chiles, and entrepreneur Lauren Chan were the other models who received their own distinct cover last year.
In her Instagram Stories, Dunne expressed her gratitude: "Being surrounded by so many inspiring, beautiful women every year is such an honor."
Maher is back in the SI Swimsuit issue for the third consecutive year. She debuted in 2024 as the cover athlete for the September digital edition after helping the Team USA women's rugby sevens team win bronze at the Paris Games.
It was the first time the U.S. medaled in that event since rugby sevens was added to the Olympic rotation in 2016.
Maher has also been a contestant on Dancing with the Stars, finishing second overall in season 33.
The 2026 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue releases in May.
