Congratulations are in order for Olivia “Livvy” Dunne, who landed one of the four Sports Illustrated Swimsuit covers for the 2025 issue.
The recently retired NCAA gymnast, 22, modeled an animal-print bikini on one cover while Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles, Academy Award nominee Salma Hayek and entrepreneur Lauren Chan appeared on the others.
“Woke up a 2025 Sports Illustrated cover model!” Dunne wrote on X.
“I’m a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover girl!” she added, including a photo of her excited reaction on her Instagram Story.
Dunne, who hails from New Jersey, shot on location in Bermuda, where she posed in a two-piece by Reina Olga.
Chiles, making her SI Swimsuit debut at age 24, shot her cover at The Boca Raton in Florida, where she posed in a brown halter-neck swimsuit from Bad N Bare.
Hayek, 58, who shot on location in Mexico, modeled a green bikini by Johanna Ortiz and wore a body chain by Jacquie Aiche for her SI Swimsuit debut.
A first-time cover star, Chan returned for her third consecutive year with the franchise.
Like Dunne, Chan traveled to Bermuda and posed in a Cult Gaia swimsuit for her cover.
This marks Dunne’s first SI Swimsuit cover and her third consecutive appearance in the magazine.
Dunne has been in New York promoting the 2025 SI Swimsuit issue this week.
The former NCAA champ, along with fellow SI Swimsuit models Camille Kostek, Ellie Thumann and Xandra Pohl, attended the Mets-Pirates game at Citi Field on Monday.
The models threw out the first pitch of the three-game series while sporting Mets jerseys.
Dunne didn’t participate in the ceremonial first pitch and opted to wear neutral clothes, however, as her boyfriend, Paul Skenes, was pitching for the Pirates.
