'Curviest model ever’ to grace Sports Illustrated Swimsuit

Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s “curviest model ever” is back for her fourth spread in the legendary magazine and she’s getting everyone excited for the 2020 edition.

The magazine has already started to reveal the models who will appear in the 57th print issue, due out in January, with some behind-the-scenes videos and photos on its Instagram page.

On Wednesday we got the red hot confirmation that Hunter McGrady will be featured when we got a sneak peek of her shoot in Bali.

“I just feel better and better every single year,” McGrady said in the short clip. “And this location is insane.”

The 26-year-old was seen in a variety of sultry bathing suits in the snaps posted to Sports Illustrated’s page.

One of our favourites was a black bikini with cutout detailing the model rocked in an outdoor shower.

The publication even referenced James Bond, with a 007-inspired one-piece suit that McGrady showed off on the beach.

Fans of the magazine have quickly taken to the comments section to praise McGrady as a “goddess.”

“She is absolutely stunning,” one follower wrote.

Another said, “Hottest shower I’ve ever seen.”

“Hoping for a cover shot,” a fellow model also commented.

McGrady also posted some photos and videos to her own Instagram where she announced the news with a cheeky wink to followers.

“Cats out of the bag!” the thrilled model wrote.

“Can’t wait for you guys to see this issue,” she wrote. “Keep on rocking that body of yours and remember You are ENOUGH as you are RIGHT. NOW.”

McGrady first appeared in SI Swimsuit back in 2017 when she deemed the curviest model to be photographed for the issue at a size 16.

In July 2019, McGrady was revealed to be the first plus-size bride to appear on the cover of The Knot.
