Livvy Dunne has once again been included in the iconic Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue for 2026.
The former LSU gymnast and social media star is one of nine women to be included in this year’s edition, which was announced on Tuesday.
It is the fourth consecutive year that Dunne, who is dating Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes, has appeared in the Swimsuit edition for Sports Illustrated.
Last year, Dunne earned the highly-coveted cover shot for the 2025 issue after being photographed in Bermuda.
This year, the group traveled to Loreto on Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula to pose for the Sports Illustrated cameras once again.
And Dunne left very little to the imagination in a white bikini as she showed off her cleavage and posed seductively on a sandy beach.

Other models in this year’s issue include Brooks Nader, Bethenny Frankel, Haley Baylee, Lauren Chan, Jocelyn Corona, Hunter McGrady, Molly Sims and Team USA rugby player Ilona Maher.
Maher won a bronze medal with her American teammates at the Paris 2024 Olympics. She also appeared on Dancing With the Stars and has amassed a huge following on social media.
The accolade for Dunne comes just weeks after she announced a shock move into acting by landing a role in the highly-anticipated Baywatch reboot.
The 23-year-old is one of many standout recruits for the remake of the iconic ’90s series, along with model Nader, actresses Hassie Harrison, Shay Mitchell and Jessica Belkin, and TikTok personality Noah Beck.
While on set in Malibu last week, Dunne posed for a stunning selfie with co-star Harrison, most famous for her role in Yellowstone.
The pair were both donning the famous red Baywatch swimsuits in the snap, with Dunne winking and holding up a peace-sign gesture.
‘Baewatch,’ she wrote as the caption after posting it on her Instagram story.
Dunne, who is making her acting debut, has been cast in a recurring role as a junior lifeguard in the Baywatch reboot.
The social-media sensation was seen frolicking on the sand alongside her famous castmates last week, with the group posing in red swimwear and showing off their chiseled physiques.

The myriad of stars were pictured going through the classic Baywatch shots, smoldering at the cameras in their sultry outfits.
When the casting choices were revealed, many were shocked to see social media stars like Dunne and Nader among the lifeguard team – better known for their Instagram following than their acting chops.
But, earlier this month, Dunne had revealed how excited she was to try and carve out an acting career.
‘It’s something I’ve been passionate about for quite some time. I was interested in doing that at LSU, but sports are your top priority when you’re a student-athlete at school,’ she said.
‘And now that I’m done with school, I have more time to lean into the acting stuff and the creative side of things.
‘Whether it’s gymnastics or acting in a movie or a TV show, I just think watching all your hard work pay off, whether it’s an individual thing or a group thing, I think it’s so cool.’
