Matt Kalil and his ex-wife, Haley Kalil, have been in the news most recently because of some raunchy comments she made about his size below the belt.

But in SI Swim, the model grabbed a different kind of headline in a steamy throwback social media share — regarding the “bold” looks she pulled off during her risky rookie shoot with the iconic Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.

This included one "daring" "top" made of little more than sparse strands of fringe in white, yellow, purple and orange — and that required some effortless poses on Haley’s part to cover her modesty.

“What’s more bold than being able to rock such a daring top effortlessly?” Sports Illustrated Swimsuit asks in an article published on Wednesday, January 7. “Not many can pull off such a look, but Kalil made it appear as if this piece was made specifically for her. It’s especially fun to see how the many shades intertwined to produce such a marvelous garment that truly encapsulates the culture of Kenya.”

The stunning model was photographed by the great Yu Tsai. The article included six stunning looks from the 2019 shoot, her first of three appearances in the iconic magazine.

Haley and Matt were married from 2015 to 2022. He played for the Minnesota Vikings, Carolina Panthers and Houston Texans during his seven-season career as an offensive tackle. He retired about the 2019 season — just as Haley's SI Swim career was getting started.

Matt has recently remarried — and shares a child with — Keilani Asmus. He has filed a lawsuit against his ex over her comments, as detailed in a January 6 report in the New York Post.
